1 Timothy 5:13-25

13And withal they learnG3129 alsoG2532 to be idleG692, going about from houseG3614 to houseG3614; and not onlyG3440 idleG692, but tattlers alsoG2532 and busybodies, speakingG2980 things which they oughtG1163 not. 14I desire thereforeG3767 that the younger widows marryG1060, bear children, rule the household, giveG1325 no occasionG874 to the adversary for reviling: 15for alreadyG2235 some are turnedG1624 asideG1624 after SatanG4567. 16If any woman that believeth hath widowsG5503, let her relieve them, and let not the churchG1577 be burdenedG916; that it may relieve them that are widowsG5503 indeed.

17Let the eldersG4245 that rule wellG2573 be countedG515 worthyG515 of doubleG1362 honorG5092, especiallyG3122 those who laborG2872 in the wordG3056 and in teachingG1319. 18For the scriptureG1124 saith, Thou shalt not muzzleG5392 the oxG1016 when he treadeth out the corn. And, The laborer is worthyG514 of his hire. 19Against an elderG4245 receiveG3858 not an accusationG2724, except at the mouth of twoG1417 or threeG5140 witnessesG3144. 20Them that sinG264 reprove in the sight of all, that the restG3062 alsoG2532 may be in fearG5401. 21I charge thee in the sight of GodG2316, and ChristG5547 JesusG2424, and the electG1588 angelsG32, that thou observe these thingsG3778 without prejudice, doing nothingG3367 by partiality. 22Lay handsG5495 hastily on no man, neither be partaker of otherG245 men’s sinsG266: keepG5083 thyself pureG53. 23Be noG3371 longerG3371 a drinker of water, but useG5530 a littleG3641 wineG3631 for thy stomach’s sakeG1223 and thine oftenG4437 infirmitiesG769. 24Some men’sG444 sinsG266 areG1510 evidentG4271, goingG4254 before unto judgmentG2920; and some menG444 alsoG2532 they follow after. 25In like manner alsoG2532 there are goodG2570 worksG2041 that are evidentG4271; and such as are otherwise cannot be hidG2928.
