1 Timothy 5:3-6

3HonorG5091 widowsG5503 who are 1widowsG5503 indeedG3689;

4but ifG1487 anyG5100 widowG5503 hasG2192 childrenG5043 orG2228 grandchildrenG1549, 2they must firstG4413 learnG3129 to practiceG2151 pietyG2151 in regard to their ownG2398 familyG3624 and to 3makeG591 some returnG591 to their parentsG4269; for thisG3778 is 4acceptableG587 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316.

5NowG1161 she who is a 5widowG5503 indeedG3689 and who has been leftG3443 aloneG3443, 6has fixedG1679 her hopeG1679 on GodG2316 and continuesG4357 in 7entreatiesG1162 and prayersG4335 nightG3571 and dayG2250.

6But she who 8givesG4684 herselfG4684 to wantonG4684 pleasureG4684 is 9deadG2348 even while she livesG2198.
