Reading 1, Titus 2:1-8, 11-14

¹ It is for you, then, to preach the behaviour which goes with healthy doctrine.

² Older men should be reserved, dignified, moderate, sound in faith and love and perseverance.

³ Similarly, older women should behave as befits religious people, with no scandal-mongering and no addiction to wine -- they must be the teachers of right behaviour

⁴ and show younger women how they should love their husbands and love their children,

⁵ how they must be sensible and chaste, and how to work in their homes, and be gentle, and obey their husbands, so that the message of God is not disgraced.

⁶ Similarly, urge younger men to be moderate in everything that they do,

⁷ and you yourself set an example of good works, by sincerity and earnestness, when you are teaching, and by a message sound and irreproachable

⁸ so that any opponent will be at a loss, with no accusation to make against us.

¹¹ You see, God's grace has been revealed to save the whole human race;

¹² it has taught us that we should give up everything contrary to true religion and all our worldly passions; we must be self-restrained and live upright and religious lives in this present world,

¹³ waiting in hope for the blessing which will come with the appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour Christ Jesus.

¹⁴ He offered himself for us in order to ransom us from all our faults and to purify a people to be his very own and eager to do good.

Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 37:3-4, 18, 23, 27, 29

³ Put your trust in Yahweh and do right, make your home in the land and live secure.

⁴ Make Yahweh your joy and he will give you your heart's desires.

¹⁸ The lives of the just are in Yahweh's care, their birthright will endure for ever;

²³ Yahweh guides a strong man's steps and keeps them firm; and takes pleasure in him.

²⁷ Turn your back on evil and do good, you will have a home for ever,

²⁹ but the upright shall have the land for their own, there they shall live for ever.
