[5] cause in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed [6] blameless, the husband wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly. [7] For a bishop must blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre; [8] But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate; [9] Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. [10] For many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: [11] Whose must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, filthy lucre's sake. [12] One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. [13] This witness true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; [14] Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
