1 Timothy 5:9-12

9Let a widow be listed only if she is at least sixty, was the wife of one husband,

10well known for good deeds, if she raised children, if she showed hospitality, if she washed the feet of the kedoshim, if she helped those in trouble, and if she devoted herself to every good work.

11But refuse younger widows; for when their sensual desires draw them away from the Messiah, they want to get married—

12facing judgment because they have set aside their previous pledge.
