1Timothy 5
5Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren;G1969G3361G4245G235G3870G5613G3962G3501G5613G802The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.G4245G5613G3384G3501G5613G79G1722G3956G473Honour widows that are widows indeed.G5091G5503G5503G36894But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.G1161G1536G5503G2192G5043G2228G1549G3129G4412G2151G2398G3624G2532G287G591G4269G1063G5124G2076G2570G2532G587G1799G23165Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, trusteth in God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.G1161G5503G3689G2532G3443G1679G1909G2316G2532G4357G1162G2532G4335G3571G2532G22506But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.G1161G4684G2348G21987And these things give in charge, that they may be blameless.G2532G5023G3853G2443G5600G4238But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.G1161G1536G4306G3756G2398G2532G3122G3609G720G4102G2532G2076G5501G5719Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man.G2639G3361G5503G2639G1640G1835G2094G1096G1135G1520G43510Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children, if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the saints' feet, if she have relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work.G3140G1722G2570G2041G1487G5044G1487G3580G1487G3538G40G4228G1487G1884G2346G1487G1872G3956G18G204111But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry;G1161G3501G5503G3868G1063G3752G2691G5547G2309G106012Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.G2192G2917G3754G114G4413G410213And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.G1161G2532G260G3129G692G4022G3614G1161G3756G3440G692G235G5397G2532G2532G4021G2980G3588G1163G336114I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.G1014G3767G3501G1060G5041G3616G1325G3367G874G480G5484G305915For some are already turned aside after Satan.G1063G5100G1624G2235G1624G3694G456716If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be charged; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.G1536G4103G2228G4103G2192G5503G1884G846G2532G916G3361G1577G916G2443G1884G5503G368917Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.G515G4245G4291G2573G515G1362G5092G3122G2872G1722G3056G2532G131918For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.G1063G1124G3004G5392G3756G5392G1016G248G2532G2040G514G846G340819Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.G2596G4245G3858G3361G2724G1508G1622G1909G1417G2228G5140G314420Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.G264G1651G1799G3956G2443G3062G2532G2192G540121I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.G1263G1799G2316G2532G2962G2424G5547G2532G1588G32G2443G5442G5023G5565G4299G4160G3367G2596G434622Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.G2007G5495G5030G2007G3367G3366G2841G245G266G5083G4572G5323Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.G5202G3371G5202G235G5530G3641G3631G1223G4675G4751G2532G4675G4437G76924Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.G5100G444G266G1526G4271G4254G1519G2920G1161G2532G5100G187225Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.G5615G2532G2570G2041G2076G4271G2532G2192G247G3756G1410G2928
