Titus 1:12-14
GOD’S WORD Translation
12 Even one of their own prophets said, “Cretans are always liars, savage animals, and lazy gluttons.” 13 That statement is true. For this reason, sharply correct believers so that they continue to have faith that is alive and well. 14 They shouldn’t pay attention to Jewish myths or commands given by people who are always rejecting the truth.

Titus 1:12-14
New International Version
12 One of Crete’s own prophets(A) has said it: “Cretans(B) are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons.”[a] 13 This saying is true. Therefore rebuke(C) them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith(D) 14 and will pay no attention to Jewish myths(E) or to the merely human commands(F) of those who reject the truth.(G)
