1 Timothy 5:1 Rebuke not an elder, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brethren:

1 Timothy 5:2 the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity.

1 Timothy 5:3 Honor widows that are widows indeed.

1 Timothy 5:4 But if any widow hath children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety towards their own family, and to requite their parents: for this is acceptable in the sight of God.

1 Timothy 5:5 Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, hath her hope set on God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.

1 Timothy 5:6 But she that giveth herself to pleasure is dead while she liveth.

1 Timothy 5:7 These things also command, that they may be without reproach.

1 Timothy 5:8 But if any provideth not for his own, and specially his own household, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever.

1 Timothy 5:9 Let none be enrolled as a widow under threescore years old, [having been] the wife of one man,

1 Timothy 5:10 well reported of for good works; if she hath brought up children, if she hath used hospitality to strangers, if she hath washed the saints` feet, if she hath relieved the afflicted, if she hath diligently followed every good work.

1 Timothy 5:11 But younger widows refuse: for when they have waxed wanton against Christ, they desire to marry;

1 Timothy 5:12 having condemnation, because they have rejected their first pledge.

1 Timothy 5:13 And withal they learn also [to be] idle, going about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.

1 Timothy 5:14 I desire therefore that the younger [widows] marry, bear children, rule the household, give no occasion to the adversary for reviling:

1 Timothy 5:15 for already some are turned aside after Satan.

1 Timothy 5:16 If any woman that believeth hath widows, let her relieve them, and let not the church be burdened; that it mat relieve them that are widows indeed.

1 Timothy 5:17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.

1 Timothy 5:18 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn. And, The laborer is worthy of his hire.

1 Timothy 5:19 Against an elder receive not an accusation, except at [the mouth of] two or three witnesses.

1 Timothy 5:20 Them that sin reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in fear.

1 Timothy 5:21 I charge [thee] in the sight of God, and Christ Jesus, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.

1 Timothy 5:22 Lay hands hastily on no man, neither be partaker of other men`s sins: keep thyself pure.

1 Timothy 5:23 Be no longer a drinker of water, but use a little wine for thy stomach`s sake and thine often infirmities.

1 Timothy 5:24 Some men`s sins are evident, going before unto judgment; and some men also they follow after.

1 Timothy 5:25 In like manner also there are good works that are evident; and such as are otherwise cannot be hid.
