1 Timothy 5:3-5

3Honor widows who are actually 1widows;

4but if any widow has children or grandchildren, 2they must first learn to show proper respect for their own family and to give back compensation to their parents; for this is 3acceptable in the sight of God.

5Now she who is actually a 4widow and has been left alone 5has set her hope on God, and she continues in 6requests and prayers night and day.
