1 Timothy 5:13-25

13AndG1161 withalG260 they learnG3129 to be idleG692, wandering aboutG4022 from house to houseG3588G3614; andG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 idleG692, butG235 tattlersG5397 alsoG2532 andG2532 busybodiesG4021, speakingG2980 things whichG3588 they oughtG1163 notG3361. 14I willG1014 thereforeG3767 thatG1060 the younger womenG3501 marryG1060, bear childrenG5041, guide the houseG3616, giveG1325 noneG3367 occasionG874 to the adversaryG480 to speak reproachfullyG3059. 15ForG1063 someG5100 areG1624 alreadyG2235 turned asideG1624 afterG3694 SatanG3588G4567. 16IfG1487 anyG5100 manG4103 orG2228 womanG4103 that believethG4103 haveG2192 widowsG5503, let them relieveG1884 themG846, andG2532 letG916 notG3361 the AssemblyG3588G1577 be chargedG916; thatG2443 it may relieveG1884 them thatG3588 areG3689 widowsG5503 indeedG3689. 17

LetG515 the eldersG4245 that ruleG4291 wellG2573 be counted worthyG515 of doubleG1362 honourG5092, especiallyG3122 they who labourG2872 inG1722 the wordG3056 andG2532 doctrineG1319. 18ForG1063 the scriptureG3588G1124 saithG3004, Thou shaltG5392 notG3756 muzzleG5392 the oxG1016 that treadeth out the grainG248. AndG2532, The labourerG3588G2040 is worthyG514 of hisG846 rewardG3588G3408. 19

AgainstG2596 an elderG4245 receiveG3858 notG3361 an accusationG2724, butG1622 beforeG1909 twoG1417 orG2228 threeG5140 witnessesG3144. 20Them that sinG264 rebukeG1651 beforeG1799 allG3956, thatG2443 othersG3062 alsoG2532 mayG2192 fearG5401. 21I chargeG1263 thee beforeG1799 GodG3588G2316, andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 the electG1588 angelsG32, thatG2443 thou observeG5442 these thingsG3778 withoutG5565 preferring one before anotherG4299, doingG4160 nothingG3367 byG2596 partialityG4346.

22LayG2007 handsG5495 suddenlyG5030 onG2007 no manG3367, neitherG3366 be partaker ofG2841 other men’sG245 sinsG266: keepG5083 thyselfG4572 pureG53. 23

DrinkG5202 no longerG3371 waterG5202, butG235 useG5530 a littleG3641 wineG3631 forG1223 thyG4771 stomach’sG3588G4751 sakeG1223 andG2532 thineG4771 oftenG4437 infirmitiesG769. 24

SomeG5100 men’sG444 sinsG3588G266 areG1510 open beforehandG4271, going beforeG4254 toG1519 judgmentG2920; andG1161 someG5100 men they follow afterG1872. 25LikewiseG5615 alsoG2532 the goodG3588G2570 worksG2041 of some areG1510 manifest beforehandG4271; andG2532 they that areG3588G2192 otherwiseG247 cannotG3756G1410 be hidG2928.
