English Standard Version
Titus 1:13-2:1
English Standard Version
13 This testimony is true. Therefore (A)rebuke them (B)sharply, that they (C)may be sound in the faith, 14 (D)not devoting themselves to Jewish myths and (E)the commands of people (F)who turn away from the truth. 15 (G)To the pure, all things are pure, but to the defiled and (H)unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both (I)their minds and their consciences are defiled. 16 (J)They profess to know God, but they (K)deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, (L)unfit for any good work.
Teach Sound Doctrine
2 But as for you, teach what accords with (M)sound[a] doctrine.

Titus 1:13-2:1
Common English Bible
13 This statement is true. Because of this, correct them firmly, so that they can be healthy in their faith. 14 They shouldn’t pay attention to Jewish myths and commands from people who reject the truth. 15 Everything is clean to those who are clean, but nothing is clean to those who are corrupt and without faith. Instead, their mind and conscience are corrupted. 16 They claim to know God, but they deny God by the things that they do. They are detestable, disobedient, and disqualified to do anything good.
Teaching all people how to be godly
2 But you should talk in a way that is consistent with sound teaching.
Titus 1:13-2:1
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)
