1 Timothy 3:2-13

2The overseerG1985 thenG3767 must beG1510 irreproachable, husbandG435 of oneG1520 wifeG1135, sober, discreet, decorous, hospitableG5382, apt to teachG1317;

3not given to excesses from wineG3943, not a striker, but mild, not addicted to contention, not fond of money,

4conducting his ownG2398 houseG3624 wellG2573, having [his] childrenG5043 in subjection with all gravity;

5(but if oneG5100 does not know howG4459 to conduct his ownG2398 houseG3624, howG4459 shall he take careG1959 of the assemblyG1577 of 1GodG2316?)

6not a novice, that he may not, being inflated, fallG1706 into [the] fault of the devilG1228.

7But it is necessaryG1163 that he should have alsoG2532 a goodG2570 testimonyG3141 from those without, that he may fallG1706 not into reproachG3680 and [the] snareG3803 of the devilG1228.

8Ministers, in like manner, grave, not double-tongued, not given to muchG4183 wineG3631, not seeking gainG146 by base means,

9holdingG2192 the mysteryG3466 of the faithG4102 in a pureG2513 conscienceG4893.

10And let these beG1510 firstG4413 proved, then let them ministerG1247, beingG1510 without charge [against them].

11[The] womenG1135 in like manner grave, not slanderersG1228, sober, faithfulG4103 in all thingsG3956.

12Let [the] ministers beG1510 husbandsG435 of oneG1520 wifeG1135, conducting [their] childrenG5043 and their ownG2398 houses wellG2573:

13for those who shall have ministeredG1247 wellG2573 obtain for themselves a goodG2570 degree, and muchG4183 boldnessG3954 in faithG4102 which [is] in ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
