1 Timothy 5:1-4

11Do not sharply rebuke an 2older man, but rather appeal to him as a father, to 3the younger men as brothers, 2the older women as mothers, and the younger women as sisters, in all purity.

3Honor widows who are 4widows indeed; 4but if any widow has children or grandchildren, 5they must first learn to practice piety in regard to their own family and to 6make some return to their parents; for this is 7acceptable in the sight of God.
