1Timothy:5:1 @
Don '
t rebuke an older man ,
but exhort him as a father ;
the younger men as brothers ;
web @
1Timothy:5:2 @
the elder women as mothers ;
the younger as sisters ,
in all purity .
web @
1Timothy:5:3 @
Honor widows who are widows indeed .
web @
1Timothy:5:4 @
But if any widow has children or grandchildren ,
let them learn first to show piety towards their own family ,
and to repay their parents ,
for this is {
TR adds "
good and "}
acceptable in the sight of God .
web @
1Timothy:5:5 @
Now she who is a widow indeed ,
and desolate ,
has her hope set on God ,
and continues in petitions and prayers night and day .
web @
1Timothy:5:6 @
But she who gives herself to pleasure is dead while she lives .
web @
1Timothy:5:7 @
Also command these things ,
that they may be without reproach .
web @
1Timothy:5:8 @
But if anyone doesn '
t provide for his own ,
and especially his own household ,
he has denied the faith ,
and is worse than an unbeliever .
web @
1Timothy:5:9 @
Let no one be enrolled as a widow under sixty years old ,
having been the wife of one man ,
web @
1Timothy:5:10 @
being approved by good works ,
if she has brought up children ,
if she has been hospitable to strangers ,
if she has washed the saints '
feet ,
if she has relieved the afflicted ,
and if she has diligently followed every good work .

1Timothy:5:11 @
But refuse younger widows ,
for when they have grown wanton against Christ ,
they desire to marry ;
web @
1Timothy:5:12 @
having condemnation ,
because they have rejected their first pledge .
web @
1Timothy:5:13 @
Besides ,
they also learn to be idle ,
going about from house to house .
Not only idle ,
but also gossips and busybodies ,
saying things which they ought not .
web @
1Timothy:5:14 @
I desire therefore that the younger widows marry ,
bear children ,
rule the household ,
and give no occasion to the adversary for insulting .
web @
1Timothy:5:15 @
For already some have turned aside after Satan .
web @
1Timothy:5:16 @
If any man or woman who believes has widows ,
let them relieve them ,
and don '
t let the assembly be burdened ;
that it might relieve those who are widows indeed .
web @
1Timothy:5:17 @
Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor ,
especially those who labor in the word and in teaching .

For the Scripture says , "
You shall not muzzle the ox when it treads out the grain ." {
Deuteronomy strkjv @
25:4 }
And , "
The laborer is worthy of his wages ." {
Luke strkjv @
10:7 ;
Leviticus strkjv @

Don '
t receive an accusation against an elder ,
except at the word of two or three witnesses .
web @
1Timothy:5:20 @
Those who sin ,
reprove in the sight of all ,
that the rest also may be in fear .
web @
1Timothy:5:21 @
I command you in the sight of God ,
and Christ Jesus ,
and the chosen angels ,
that you observe these things without prejudice ,
doing nothing by partiality .
web @
1Timothy:5:22 @
Lay hands hastily on no one ,
neither be a participant in other men '
s sins .
Keep yourself pure .
web @
1Timothy:5:23 @
Be no longer a drinker of water only ,
but use a little wine for your stomach '
s sake and your frequent infirmities .
web @
1Timothy:5:24 @
Some men '
s sins are evident ,
preceding them to judgment ,
and some also follow later .
web @
1Timothy:5:25 @
In the same way also there are good works that are obvious ,
and those that are otherwise can '
t be hidden .
