Titus 2:9
7 In everything, show yourself to be an example by doing good works. In your teaching show integrity, dignity,
8 and wholesome speech that is above reproach, so that anyone who opposes us will be ashamed to have nothing bad to say about us.
Slaves are to submit to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not argumentative,
10 not stealing from them, but showing all good faith, so that in every respect they will adorn the teaching about God our Savior.
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to everyone.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
