2 Timothy 2:16-21 (New Revised Standard)
16
Avoid profane chatter, for it will lead people into more and more impiety,
17
and their talk will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus,
18
who have swerved from the truth by claiming that the resurrection has already taken place. They are upsetting the faith of some.
19
But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this inscription: "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Let everyone who calls on the name of the Lord turn away from wickedness."
20
In a large house there are utensils not only of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, some for special use, some for ordinary.
21
All who cleanse themselves of the things I have mentioned a will become special utensils, dedicated and useful to the owner of the house, ready for every good work.
