54_1TI_05_01 rebuke not an elder, but entreat [ him] as A Father; [ And] the younger men as brethren;
54_1TI_05_02 the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.
54_1TI_05_03 honour widows that are widows indeed.
54_1TI_05_04 but if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to show piety at home, And to requite their parents: for that Is good And acceptable before God.
54_1TI_05_05 now she that Is A widow indeed, And desolate, trusteth in God, And continueth in supplications And prayers night And day.
54_1TI_05_06 but she that liveth in pleasure Is dead while she liveth.
54_1TI_05_07 And These things give in charge, that they may be blameless.
54_1TI_05_08 but 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.
54_1TI_05_09 let not A widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man,
54_1TI_05_10 Well 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.
54_1TI_05_11 but the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry;
54_1TI_05_12 having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.
54_1TI_05_13 And 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.
54_1TI_05_14 I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.
54_1TI_05_15 for some are already turned aside after Satan.
54_1TI_05_16 if 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.
54_1TI_05_17 let the elders that rule Well be counted worthy of double honour, Especially they who labour in the word And doctrine.
54_1TI_05_18 for the scripture saith, thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, the labourer [ Is] worthy of his reward.
54_1TI_05_19 against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.
54_1TI_05_20 them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may Fear.
54_1TI_05_21 I 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.
54_1TI_05_22 lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.
54_1TI_05_23 drink no longer water, but use A little wine for thy stomach's sake And thine often infirmities.
54_1TI_05_24 some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; And some [ men] they follow after.
54_1TI_05_25 Likewise also the good works [ of some] are manifest beforehand; And they that are Otherwise cannot be hid.
