Titus 2:1

Conduct Consistent with Sound Teaching

2:1 But as for you, communicate the behavior that goes with ¹⁴  sound teaching.

Titus 1:15-16

1:15 All is pure to those who are pure. But to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, nothing is pure, but both their minds and consciences are corrupted. 1:16 They profess to know God but with their deeds they deny him, since they are detestable, disobedient, and unfit for any good deed.

[5:33]  ¹ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[5:33]  ² tn Heb “may prolong your days”; NAB “may have long life”; TEV “will continue to live.”

[22:5]  ³ tn Heb “But be very careful to do the commandment and the law which Moses, the Lord’s servant, commanded you, to love.”

[22:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “walk in all his paths.”

[22:5]  ⁵ tn Or “keep.”

[22:5]  ⁶ tn Heb “hug him.”

[22:5]  ⁷ tn Or “soul.”

[81:13]  ⁸ tn Heb “if only my people were listening to me.” The Hebrew particle לוּ (lu, “if not”) introduces a purely hypothetical or contrary to fact condition (see 2 Sam 18:12).

[81:13]  ⁹ tn Heb “[and if only] Israel would walk in my ways.”

[11:20]  ¹⁰ sn The expression They will be my people, and I will be their God occurs as a promise to Abraham (Gen 17:8), Moses (Exod 6:7), and the nation (Exod 29:45).

[2:11]  ¹¹ tn Grk “all men”; but ἀνθρώποις (anqrwpois) is generic here, referring to both men and women.

[2:12]  ¹² tn Grk “training us” (as a continuation of the previous clause). Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started at the beginning of v. 12 by translating the participle παιδεύουσα (paideuousa) as a finite verb and supplying the pronoun “it” as subject.

[2:12]  ¹³ tn Grk “ungodliness.”

[2:1]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “say what is fitting for sound teaching” (introducing the behavior called for in this chapter.).
