2:7 in all things show yourself to be an example of good deeds, with purity in doctrine, dignified,
2:8 sound in speech which is beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us.
2:9 Urge slaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be pleasing, not argumentative,
2:10 not stealing, but showing all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in every respect.
2:11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people,
2:12 instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously, and in a godly manner in the present age,
2:13 looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus,
2:14 who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, eager for good deeds.
2:15 These things speak and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. No one is to disregard you.
