> 10. for there are many rebellious people, idle talkers, and deceivers, especially those with judean (jewish) connections, 11. who must be silenced because they mislead whole families by teaching for dishonest gain what ought not to be taught. 12. a certain one of them, in fact, one of their own prophets, said, cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons. 13. such testimony is true. for this reason rebuke them sharply that they may be healthy in the faith 14. and not pay attention to judean (jewish) myths and commands of people who reject the truth. 15. all is pure to those who are pure. but to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, nothing is pure, but both their minds and consciences are corrupted. 16. they profess to know god but with their deeds they deny him, since they are detestable, disobedient, and unfit for any good deed. (titus 1:10-16)
