Titus 1:12-14

International Children’s Bible

¹² Even one of their own prophets from Crete said, “Cretan people are always liars. They are evil animals and lazy people who do nothing but eat.” ¹³ The words that prophet said are true. So tell those people that they are wrong. You must be strict with them. Then they will become strong in the faith ¹⁴ and stop accepting Jewish stories. And they will stop following the commands of others who do not accept the truth.
