1 Timothy 5:8-11
8But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has 1denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
9A widow is to be 2put on the list only if she is not less than sixty years old, having been 3the wife of one man, 10having a reputation for 4good works; and if she has brought up children, if she has 5shown hospitality to strangers, if she 6has washed the 7saints’ feet, if she has 8assisted those in distress, and if she has devoted herself to every good work. 11But refuse to put younger widows on the list, for when they feel 9sensual desires in disregard of Christ, they want to get married,
