1 Timothy 5:11-15

11But refuse to put younger widows on the list, for when they feel 1sensual desires in disregard of Christ, they want to get married,

12thus incurring condemnation, because they have set aside their previous 2pledge.

13At the same time they also learn to be idle, as they go around from house to house; and not merely idle, but also 3gossips and 4busybodies, talking about 5things not proper to mention.

14Therefore, I want younger widows to get 6married, bear children, 7keep house, and 8give the enemy no occasion for reproach;

15for some 9have already turned aside to follow 10Satan.
