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]

¹And thou -- be speaking what doth become the sound teaching;

⁵sober, pure, keepers of [their own] houses, good, subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be evil spoken of.

⁶Ny lehilahy tanora fanahy koa anaro hahonon-tena;

⁶The younger men, in like manner, be exhorting to be sober-minded;

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

⁷concerning all things thyself showing a pattern of good works; in the teaching uncorruptedness, gravity, incorruptibility,

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

⁹Servants -- to their own masters [are] to be subject, in all things to be well-pleasing, not gainsaying,

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

¹⁰not purloining, but showing all good stedfastness, that the teaching of God our Saviour they may adorn in all things.
