”Jumalan armo on näet ilmestynyt pelastukseksi
kaikille ihmisille, ja se kasvattaa meitä hylkäämään jumalattomuuden ja
maailmalliset himot ja elämään siveästi, vanhurskaasti ja jumalisesti
nykyisessä maailmanajassa, kun odotamme autuaan toivon täyttymistä ja suuren
Jumalan ja Vapahtajamme Jeesuksen Kristuksen kirkkauden ilmestymistä. Hän antoi
itsensä meidän puolestamme lunastaakseen meidät kaikesta laittomuudesta ja
puhdistaakseen itselleen omaisuudeksi kansan, joka ahkeroi hyviä tekoja. Puhu
tätä, kehota ja nuhtele kaikella arvovallalla. Älköön kukaan halveksiko sinua.”
Titukselle 2:11-15 FINRK
”For the grace of God has
been revealed, bringing salvation to all people. And we are instructed to turn
from godless living and sinful pleasures. We should live in this evil world
with wisdom, righteousness, and devotion to God, while we look forward with
hope to that wonderful day when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus
Christ, will be revealed. He gave his life to free us from every kind of sin,
to cleanse us, and to make us his very own people, totally committed to doing
good deeds. You must teach these things and encourage the believers to do them.
You have the authority to correct them when necessary, so don’t let anyone
disregard what you say.”
Titus 2:11-15 NLT
”For the grace of God (His
unmerited favor and blessing) has come forward (appeared) for the deliverance
from sin and the eternal salvation for all mankind. It has trained us to reject
and renounce all ungodliness (irreligion) and worldly (passionate) desires, to
live discreet (temperate, self-controlled), upright, devout (spiritually whole)
lives in this present world, Awaiting and looking for the [fulfillment, the
realization of our] blessed hope, even the glorious appearing of our great God
and Savior Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One), Who gave Himself on
our behalf that He might redeem us (purchase our freedom) from all iniquity and
purify for Himself a people [to be peculiarly His own, people who are] eager
and enthusiastic about [living a life that is good and filled with] beneficial
deeds. [Deut. 14:2; Ps. 130:8; Ezek. 37:23.] Tell [them all] these things. Urge
(advise, encourage, warn) and rebuke with full authority. Let no one despise or
disregard or think little of you [conduct yourself and your teaching so as to
command respect].”
Titus 2:11-15 AMPC
