1 Timothy 2:9-10
Conduct of Women
2:9 Likewise the women are to dress in suitable apparel, with modesty and self-control. Their adornment must not be with braided hair and gold or pearls or expensive clothing,
2:10 but with good deeds, as is proper for women who profess reverence for God.
Titus 2:3-15
2:3 Older women likewise are to exhibit behavior fitting for those who are holy, not slandering, not slaves to excessive drinking, but teaching what is good.
2:4 In this way
they will train
the younger women to love their husbands, to love their children,
2:5 to be self-controlled,
pure, fulfilling their duties at home,
kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the message
of God may not be discredited.
2:6 Encourage younger men likewise to be self-controlled,
2:7 showing yourself to be an example of good works in every way. In your teaching show integrity, dignity,
2:8 and a sound message that cannot be criticized, so that any opponent will be at a loss,
because he has nothing evil to say about us.
2:9 Slaves
are to be subject to their own masters in everything,
to do what is wanted and not talk back,
2:10 not pilfering, but showing all good faith,
in order to bring credit to
the teaching of God our Savior in everything.
2:11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people.
2:12 It trains us to reject godless ways and worldly desires and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age,
2:13 as we wait for the happy fulfillment of our hope in the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
2:14 He gave himself for us to set us free from every kind of lawlessness and to purify for himself a people who are truly his, who are eager to do good.
2:15 So communicate these things with the sort of exhortation or rebuke that carries full authority. Don’t let anyone look down on you.
Romans 12:2
12:2 Do not be conformed
to this present world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may test and approve
what is the will of God – what is good and well-pleasing and perfect.
