# to those who are stained and unbelieving, nothing is pure

Paul speaks of sinners as if they were physically dirty. AT: "if people are morally defiled and do not believe, they cannot do anything pure" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# they deny him by their deeds

"their actions prove that they do not know him"

# detestable
