Titus 1:13-2:1
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
13 This testimony is true. For which reason, be rebuking them severely in order that they may be healthy in the faith, 14 not paying-attention-to Jewish myths and commandments of people turning-away-from the truth. 15 All things are clean[a] to the clean. But to the ones having been defiled[b] and who are unbelieving, nothing is clean, but both their mind and conscience have been defiled. 16 They are confessing to know God, but by their works they are denying Him, being detestable and disobedient and disapproved[c] for every good work.
Speak Healthy Teaching To All Groups of People
2 But you be speaking the things which are fitting[d] for healthy teaching—

New International Version
13 This saying is true. Therefore rebuke(A) them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith(B) 14 and will pay no attention to Jewish myths(C) or to the merely human commands(D) of those who reject the truth.(E) 15 To the pure, all things are pure,(F) but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure.(G) In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted.(H) 16 They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him.(I) They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good.(J)
Doing Good for the Sake of the Gospel
2 You, however, must teach what is appropriate to sound doctrine.(K)
