1Timothy 3
ylt@1Timothy:3:1 @Stedfast [is] the word: If any one the oversight doth long for, a right work he desireth;
ylt@1Timothy:3:2 @it behoveth, therefore, the overseer to be blameless, of one wife a husband, vigilant, sober, decent, a friend of strangers, apt to teach,
ylt@1Timothy:3:3 @not given to wine, not a striker, not given to filthy lucre, but gentle, not contentious, not a lover of money,
ylt@1Timothy:3:4 @his own house leading well, having children in subjection with all gravity,
ylt@1Timothy:3:5 @(and if any one his own house [how] to lead hath not known, how an assembly of God shall he take care of?)
ylt@1Timothy:3:6 @not a new convert, lest having been puffed up he may fall to a judgment of the devil;
ylt@1Timothy:3:7 @and it behoveth him also to have a good testimony from those without, that he may not fall into reproach and a snare of the devil.
ylt@1Timothy:3:8 @Ministrants -- in like manner grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not given to filthy lucre,
ylt@1Timothy:3:9 @having the secret of the faith in a pure conscience,
ylt@1Timothy:3:10 @and let these also first be proved, then let them minister, being unblameable.
ylt@1Timothy:3:11 @Women -- in like manner grave, not false accusers, vigilant, faithful in all things.
ylt@1Timothy:3:12 @Ministrants -- let them be of one wife husbands; the children leading well, and their own houses,
ylt@1Timothy:3:13 @for those who did minister well a good step to themselves do acquire, and much boldness in faith that [is] in Christ Jesus.
ylt@1Timothy:3:14 @These things I write to thee, hoping to come unto thee soon,
ylt@1Timothy:3:15 @and if I delay, that thou mayest know how it behoveth [thee] to conduct thyself in the house of God, which is an assembly of the living God -- a pillar and foundation of the truth,
ylt@1Timothy:3:16 @and, confessedly, great is the secret of piety -- God was manifested in flesh, declared righteous in spirit, seen by messengers, preached among nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory!
