10 à ne rien dérober, mais à montrer toujours une parfaite fidélité, afin de faire honorer en tout la doctrine de Dieu notre Sauveur.

11 Car la grâce de Dieu, source de salut pour tous les hommes, a été manifestée.

12 Elle nous enseigne à renoncer à l’impiété et aux convoitises mondaines, et à vivre dans le siècle présent selon la sagesse, la justice et la piété,

13 en attendant la bienheureuse espérance, et la manifestation de la gloire du grand Dieu et de notre Sauveur Jésus-Christ,
