1 Timothy 3:6-11
6and not a newG3504 convertG3504, soG2443G3361 that he will not become 1conceitedG5187 and fallG1706 into the 2condemnationG2917 3incurred by the devilG1228. 7And he mustG1163 4haveG2192 a goodG2570 reputationG3141 with 5thoseG3588 outsideG1855 the church, soG2443 that he will not fallG1706 into reproachG3680 and 6the snareG3803 of the devilG1228.
87DeaconsG1249 likewiseG5615 must be menG4586 of dignityG4586, not 8double-tonguedG1351, 910orG3361 addictedG4337 to muchG4183 wineG3631 1112orG3361 fondG146 of sordidG146 gainG146, 913but holdingG2192 to the mysteryG3466 of the faithG4102 with a clearG2513 conscienceG4893. 1014TheseG3778 men must alsoG2532 firstG4413 be testedG1381; thenG1534 let them serveG1247 as deaconsG1247 if they are beyondG410 reproachG410. 1115WomenG1135 must likewiseG5615 be dignifiedG4586, 16not maliciousG1228 gossipsG1228, but 17temperateG3524, faithfulG4103 in allG3956 thingsG3956.
