rsv 1Timothy:5:5-10 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
She who is a real widow ,
and is left all alone ,
has set her hope on God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day ;
*
whereas she who is self-indulgent is dead even while she lives .
*
Command this ,
so that they may be without reproach .
*
If any one does not provide for his relatives ,
and especially for his own family ,
he has disowned the faith and is worse than an unbeliever .
*
Let a widow be enrolled if she is not less than sixty years of age ,
having been the wife of one husband ;
*
and she must be well attested for her good deeds ,
as one who has brought up children ,
shown hospitality ,
washed the feet of the saints ,
relieved the afflicted ,
and devoted herself to doing good in every way .
