¹But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:

¹[Ny mety hataon'ny anti-panahy sy ny tanora fanahy sy ny mpanompon'olona, ary fananarana sy hafatra samy hafa] Fa ianao kosa dia milazà izay miendrika ny fampianarana tsy misy kilema; [ Gr. salama]

²That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.

²ny lehilahy anti-panahy anaro hahonon-tena, ho maotona, ho hendry, hatanjaka amin'ny finoana, amin'ny fitiavana, amin'ny faharetana. [ Gr. salama]

³The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;

³Ny vehivavy anti-panahy koa anaro hitondra tena toy izay miendrika ny olona masina, tsy ho mpanendrikendrika, tsy ho andevozin'ny divay be, ho mpampianatra ny zavatra tsara,

⁴That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,

⁴mba hampianarany ny vehivavy tanora fanahy ho tia ny vadiny, ho tia ny zanany,

⁵To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

⁵hahonon-tena, ho madio toe-panahy, hiasa ao an-tranony, ho tsara fanahy, hanaiky ny vadiny, mba tsy hitenenana ratsy ny tenin'Andriamanitra. [ Gr. hanaovana blasfemia; izahao Mat. 9,3]

⁶Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.

⁶Ny lehilahy tanora fanahy koa anaro hahonon-tena;

⁷In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,

⁷ka amin'ny zavatra rehetra dia asehoy ny tenanao ho fianarana ny asa tsara, amin'ny fampianaranao maneho ny tsi-faharatsiana, ny fahamaotinana,

⁸Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.

⁸ny teny tsy misy kilema, izay tsy azo tsinina, mba ho menatra izay manohitra; satria tsy hisy ratsy hitenenany anareo. [ Gr. salama]

⁹Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again;

⁹Ny mpanompo koa dia anaro hanaiky ny tompony ka hanao izay sitrapony amin'ny zavatra rehetra, fa tsy hamalivaly,

¹⁰Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.

¹⁰tsy hangala-tetỳ, fa haneho izay toe-panahy mahatoky indrindra, mba hampahamendrika ny fampianaran'Andriamanitra, Mpamonjy antsika, amin'ny zavatra rehetra.

¹¹For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

¹¹Fa efa miseho ny fahasoavan'Andriamanitra, izay famonjena ny olona rehetra,

¹²Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

¹²mampianatra antsika handà izay toe-panahy tsy araka an'Andriamanitra sy ny filan'izao tontolo izao ary ho velona amin'ny onony sy ny marina ary ny toe-panahy araka an'Andriamanitra amin'izao fiainana ankehitriny izao,

¹³Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

¹³miandry ny fanantenana mahafinaritra sy ny fisehoan'ny voninahitr'Andriamanitra lehibe sady Mpamonjy antsika, dia Jesosy Kristy, [ Na: Andriamanitra lehibe sy Jesosy Kristy, Mpamonjy antsika]

¹⁴Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

¹⁴Izay nanolotra ny tenany hamonjy antsika, mba hanavotany antsika ho afaka amin'ny ota rehetra, sy hanadiovany izay olona ho an'ny tenany, sady ho mazoto indrindra amin'ny asa tsara izany.Izany no lazao sy ananaro ary andrarao amin'ny fahefana rehetra. Aza avela hisy hanao tsinontsinona anao.

¹⁵These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.

¹⁵Izany no lazao sy ananaro ary andrarao amin'ny fahefana rehetra. Aza avela hisy hanao tsinontsinona anao.
