1 Timothy 5:3-6

3Honor widows that are widows indeed.

4But if any widow hath children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety towards their own family, and to requite their parents: for this is acceptable in the sight of God.

5Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, hath her hope set on God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.

6But she that giveth herself to pleasure is dead while she liveth.
