7 For an episcopate, as the administrator of Elohim, must be unaccusable, neither selfpleasing nor wrathful, nor a winesop, nor a striker, nor avaricious;
8 but befriend strangers, befriend good, soundminded, just, merciful, self-controlled,
9 upholding the trustworthy word of doctrine; to be capable in sound doctrine both to beseech and reprove the contradicters.

EXPOSING INSUBORDINATES
For there are many insubordinate mataeologists and thought deluders - specially those of the circumcision 11 whose mouths must be stopped; who overturn whole houses doctrinating what they must not for shameful gain. 12 One of them - their own prophet said, The Cretians are ever liars, evil beasts, idle wombs. 13 This witness is true. For which cause reprove them severely to be sound in the trust; 14 not giving heed to Yah Hudaic myths and misvoth of humanity that turn from the truth. 15 Indeed, to the pure, all are pure: and to the defiled and trustless, naught is pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. 16 They profess to know Elohim; but in works they deny: being abominable and distrusting and disapproved to every good work.
