Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
19 Holding fast to faith ([a]that leaning of the entire human personality on God in absolute trust and confidence) and having a good (clear) conscience. By rejecting and thrusting from them [their conscience], some individuals have made shipwreck of their faith.

I had to give them over to Satan to punish them until they could learn not to bring shame to the name of Christ.
