1 Timothy 3:11-13

111Women must likewise be dignified, 2not malicious gossips, but 3temperate, faithful in all things. 124Deacons must be 5husbands of only one wife, and 67good managers of their children and their own households. 13For those who have served well as deacons 8obtain for themselves a 9high standing and great confidence in the faith that is in Christ Jesus.
