Amplified Bible
1 Timothy 5:11-15
11But refuse [to enroll the] younger widows, for when they feel their natural desires in disregard of Christ, they wish to marry again,
12and so they incur condemnation for having set aside their previous pledge.
13Now at the same time, they also learn to be idle as they go from house to house; and not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies [meddlers in things that do not concern them], talking about things they should not mention.
14So I want younger widows to get married, have children, manage their households, and not give opponents of the faith any occasion for slander.
15Some [widows] have already turned away [from the faith] to follow Satan.
