Titus 1:10-12
International Standard Version
Guard What is True
10 For there are many people who are rebellious, especially those who are converts from Judaism.[a] They speak utter nonsense and deceive people. 11 They must be silenced, because they are the kind of people who ruin whole families by teaching what they should not teach in order to make money in a shameful way. 12 One of their very own prophets said,
“Liars ever, men of Crete,
savage brutes that live to eat.”[b]
