Titus 1:12-14
Wycliffe Bible
12 And one of them, their proper prophet said [Some one of them, the proper prophet of them, said], said, Men of Crete be evermore liars, evil beasts, of slow womb [slow of womb].
13 This witnessing is true. For which cause blame them sore, that they be whole in faith,
14 not giving attention to fables of Jews, and to commandments of men, that turn away them from truth [turning them away from truth].

Titus 1:12-14
New International Version
12 One of Crete’s own prophets(A) has said it: “Cretans(B) are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons.”[a] 13 This saying is true. Therefore rebuke(C) them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith(D) 14 and will pay no attention to Jewish myths(E) or to the merely human commands(F) of those who reject the truth.(G)
