Titus 1:10-16 - Correct Whoever Teaches What Is Wrong

¹⁰ For there are also many insubordinate men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those from circumcision, ¹¹ who must be muzzled, men who subvert whole houses, teaching things that they ought not, for sake of ugly profit. ¹² A certain man of themselves, a prophet of their own, said, Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy bellies.

¹³ This testimony is true, because of which reason, reprove them harshly, so that they may be sound in the faith, ¹⁴ not giving heed to Jewish myths, and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.

¹⁵ Truly to the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure, but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. ¹⁶ They profess to know God, but in their works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and worthless for every good work.
