¹ But speak thou that which becometh sound doctrine,² and teach, That the elders be watchful in their minds, and be chaste and pure, and sound in the faith, and in charity, and in patience.³ And so also the aged women, that they be in behaviour what becometh the fear of Aloha, and not slanderers, nor enslaved to much wine, and that they teach good things;⁴ making those who are young modest, to love their husbands and their children,⁵ and to be chaste and holy, well mindful of their houses, and submissive to their husbands, that no man blaspheme the word of Aloha.⁶ And of those who are young men, likewise, require that they be chaste.⁷ But in every thing show thyself the example in all good works, and in doctrine let there be with thee sound speech which is sincere and incorrupt,⁸ and which no man will despise, that he who riseth against us may be ashamed when he cannot say any thing hateful against us.⁹ Let servants to their masters be submissive in every thing, and please them, not contradicting,¹⁰ 10 nor pilfering; but let them show their good-trustiness [fn] in every thing, that they may adorn in every thing the doctrine of Aloha our Saviour.
