Titus 1:10-16

New Revised Standard NRS

10 There are also many rebellious people, idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision;

11 they must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for sordid gain what it is not right to teach.

12 It was one of them, their very own prophet, who said, "Cretans are always liars, vicious brutes, lazy gluttons."

13 That testimony is true. For this reason rebuke them sharply, so that they may become sound in the faith,

14 not paying attention to Jewish myths or to commandments of those who reject the truth.

15 To the pure all things are pure, but to the corrupt and unbelieving nothing is pure. Their very minds and consciences are corrupted.

16 They profess to know God, but they deny him by their actions. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work.

New International Version NIV

10 For there are many rebellious people, full of meaningless talk and deception, especially those of the circumcision group.

11 They must be silenced, because they are disrupting whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach—and that for the sake of dishonest gain.

12 One of Crete’s own prophets has said it: “Cretans are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons.”

13 This saying is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith

14 and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the merely human commands of those who reject the truth.

15 To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted.

16 They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good.
