Rebuke [1969] [5661] not [3361] an elder [4245], but [0235] intreat [3870] [5720] [him] as [5613] a father [3962]; [and] the younger men [3501] as [5613] brethren [0080];
2
The elder women [4245] as [5613] mothers [3384]; the younger [3501] as [5613] sisters [0079], with [1722] all [3956] purity [0047].
3
Honour [5091] [5720] widows [5503] that are widows [5503] indeed [3689].
4
But [1161] if any [1536] widow [5503] have [2192] [5719] children [5043] or [2228] nephews [1549], let them learn [3129] [5720] first [4412] to shew piety [2151] [5721] at home [2398] [3624], and [2532] to requite [0287] [0591] [5721] their parents [4269]: for [1063] that [5124] is [2076] [5748] good [2570] and [2532] acceptable [0587] before [1799] God [2316].
5
Now [1161] she that is a widow [5503] indeed [3689], and [2532] desolate [3443] [5772], trusteth [1679] [5758] in [1909] God [2316], and [2532] continueth [4357] [5719] in supplications [1162] and [2532] prayers [4335] night [3571] and [2532] day [2250].
6
But [1161] she that liveth in pleasure [4684] [5723] is dead [2348] [5758] while she liveth [2198] [5723].
7
And [2532] these things [5023] give in charge [3853] [5720], that [2443] they may be [5600] [5753] blameless [0423].
8
But [1161] if any [1536] provide [4306] [5719] not [3756] for his own [2398], and [2532] specially [3122] for those of his own house [3609], he hath denied [0720] [5763] the faith [4102], and [2532] is [2076] [5748] worse than [5501] an infidel [0571].
9
Let [2639] [0000] not [3361] a widow [5503] be taken into the number [2639] [5744] under [1640] threescore [1835] years old [2094], having been [1096] [5756] the wife [1135] of one [1520] man [0435],
10
Well reported of [3140] [5746] for [1722] good [2570] works [2041]; if [1487] she have brought up [5044] [5656] children, if [1487] she have lodged strangers [3580] [5656], if [1487] she have washed [3538] [5656] the saints [0040]' feet [4228], if [1487] she have relieved [1884] [5656] the afflicted [2346] [5746], if [1487] she have diligently followed [1872] [5656] every [3956] good [0018] work [2041].
11
But [1161] the younger [3501] widows [5503] refuse [3868] [5737]: for [1063] when [3752] they have begun to wax wanton against [2691] [5661] Christ [5547], they will [2309] [5719] marry [1060] [5721];
12
Having [2192] [5723] damnation [2917], because [3754] they have cast off [0114] [5656] their first [4413] faith [4102].
13
And [1161] [2532] withal [0260] they learn [3129] [5719] [to be] idle [0692], wandering about [4022] [5740] from house to house [3614]; and [1161] not [3756] only [3440] idle [0692], but [0235] tattlers [5397] also [2532] and [2532] busybodies [4021], speaking [2980] [5723] things which [3588] they ought [1163] [5752] not [3361].
14
I will [1014] [5736] therefore [3767] that the younger women [3501] marry [1060] [5721], bear children [5041] [5721], guide the house [3616] [5721], give [1325] [5721] none [3367] occasion [0874] to the adversary [0480] [5740] to [5484] speak reproachfully [3059].
15
For [1063] some [5100] are [1624] [0000] already [2235] turned aside [1624] [5648] after [3694] Satan [4567].
16
If any [1536] man [4103] or [2228] woman that believeth [4103] have [2192] [5719] widows [5503], let them relieve [1884] [5720] them [0846], and [2532] let [0916] [0000] not [3361] the church [1577] be charged [0916] [5744]; that [2443] it may relieve [1884] [5661] them that are widows [5503] indeed [3689].
17
Let [0515] [0000] the elders [4245] that rule [4291] [5761] well [2573] be counted worthy [0515] [5744] of double [1362] honour [5092], especially [3122] they who labour [2872] [5723] in [1722] the word [3056] and [2532] doctrine [1319].
18
For [1063] the scripture [1124] saith [3004] [5719], Thou shalt [5392] [0000] not [3756] muzzle [5392] [5692] the ox [1016] that treadeth out the corn [0248] [5723]. And [2532], The labourer [2040] [is] worthy [0514] of his [0848] reward [3408].
19
Against [2596] an elder [4245] receive [3858] [5737] not [3361] an accusation [2724], but [1508] [1622] before [1909] two [1417] or [2228] three [5140] witnesses [3144].
20
Them that sin [0264] [5723] rebuke [1651] [5720] before [1799] all [3956], that [2443] others [3062] also [2532] may [2192] [5725] fear [5401].
21
I charge [1263] [5736] [thee] before [1799] God [2316], and [2532] the Lord [2962] Jesus [2424] Christ [5547], and [2532] the elect [1588] angels [0032], that [2443] thou observe [5442] [5661] these things [5023] without [5565] preferring one before another [4299], doing [4160] [5723] nothing [3367] by [2596] partiality [4346].
22
Lay [2007] [0000] hands [5495] suddenly [5030] on [2007] [5720] no man [3367], neither [3366] be partaker [2841] [5720] of other [0245] men's sins [0266]: keep [5083] [5720] thyself [4572] pure [0053].
23
Drink [5202] [0000] no longer [3371] water [5202] [5720], but [0235] use [5530] [5737] a little [3641] wine [3631] for [1223] thy [4675] stomach's sake [4751] and [2532] thine [4675] often [4437] infirmities [0769].
24
Some [5100] men's [0444] sins [0266] are [1526] [5748] open beforehand [4271], going before [4254] [5723] to [1519] judgment [2920]; and [1161] [2532] some [5100] [men] they follow after [1872] [5719].
25
Likewise [5615] also [2532] the good [2570] works [2041] [of some] are [2076] [5748] manifest beforehand [4271]; and [2532] they that are [2192] [5723] otherwise [0247] cannot [3756] [1410] [5736] be hid [2928] [5650].
