Titus 1:7-11

7For the 1 2overseer must be beyond reproach as 3God’s steward, not 4self-willed, not quick-tempered, not 5overindulging in wine, not 6a bully, 7not greedy for money, 8but 8hospitable, 9loving what is good, self-controlled, righteous, holy, disciplined, 9 10holding firmly the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching, so that he will be able both to 11exhort in 12sound doctrine and to refute those who contradict it.

10 13For there are many 14rebellious people, 15empty talkers and deceivers, especially 16those of the circumcision, 11who must be silenced because they are upsetting 17whole families, teaching 18things they should not teach 19for the sake of 20dishonest gain.
