Tree of Life Version
1 Timothy 3:2-7
2An overseer, then, must be beyond criticism—the husband of one wife, clear-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,
3not addicted to wine, not violent but gentle, peaceable, free from the love of money,
4managing his own household well, keeping his children under control with all respectfulness.
5(But if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God’s community?)
6He must not be a new believer, or he may become puffed up and fall into the same judgment as the devil.
7Furthermore, he must have a good reputation with those outside, so that he will not fall into disgrace and the devil’s trap.
