 <<  1 Timotius 5 >> 

1DO NOT sharply censure {or} rebuke an older man, but entreat {and} plead with him as [you would with] a father. Treat younger men like brothers;

2[Treat] older women like mothers [and] younger women like sisters, in all purity.

3[Always] treat with great consideration {and} give aid to those who are truly widowed (solitary and without support).

4But if a widow has children or grandchildren, see to it that these are first made to understand that it is their religious duty [to defray their natural obligation to those] at home, and make return to their parents {or} grandparents [for all their care by contributing to their maintenance], for this is acceptable in the sight of God.

5Now [a woman] who is a real widow and is left entirely alone {and} desolate has fixed her hope on God and perseveres in supplications and prayers night and day,

6Whereas she who lives in pleasure {and} self-gratification [giving herself up to luxury and self-indulgence] is dead even while she [still] lives.

7Charge [the people] thus, so that they may be without reproach {and} blameless.

8If anyone fails to provide for his relatives, and especially for those of his own family, he has disowned the faith [by failing to accompany it with fruits] and is worse than an unbeliever [who performs his obligation in these matters].

9Let no one be put on the roll of widows [who are to receive church support] who is under sixty years of age or who has been the wife of more than one man;

10And she must have a reputation for good deeds, as one who has brought up children, who has practiced hospitality to strangers [of the brotherhood], washed the feet of the saints, helped to relieve the distressed, [and] devoted herself diligently to doing good in every way.

11But refuse [to enroll on this list the] younger widows, for when they become restive {and} their natural desires grow strong, they withdraw themselves against Christ [and] wish to marry [again].

12And so they incur condemnation for having set aside {and} slighted their previous pledge.

13Moreover, as they go about from house to house, they learn to be idlers, and not only idlers, but gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not say {and} talking of things they should not mention.

14So I would have younger [widows] marry, bear children, guide the household, [and] not give opponents of the faith occasion for slander or reproach.

15For already some [widows] have turned aside after Satan.

16If any believing woman {or believing man} has [relatives or persons in the household who are] widows, let him relieve them; let the church not be burdened [with them], so that it may [be free to] assist those who are truly widows (those who are all alone and are dependent).

17Let the elders who perform the duties of their office well be considered doubly worthy of honor [and of adequate financial support], especially those who labor faithfully in preaching and teaching.

18For the Scripture says, You shall not muzzle an ox when it is treading out the grain, and again, The laborer is worthy of his hire.

19Listen to no accusation [presented before a judge] against an elder unless it is confirmed by the testimony of two or three witnesses.

20As for those who are guilty {and} persist in sin, rebuke {and} admonish them in the presence of all, so that the rest may be warned {and} stand in wholesome awe {and} fear.

21I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of the chosen angels that you guard {and} keep [these rules] without personal prejudice {or} favor, doing nothing from partiality.

22Do not be in a hurry in the laying on of hands [giving the sanction of the church too hastily in reinstating expelled offenders or in ordination in questionable cases], nor share {or} participate in another man's sins; keep yourself pure.

23Drink water no longer exclusively, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent illnesses.

24The sins of some men are conspicuous (openly evident to all eyes), going before them to the judgment [seat] {and} proclaiming their sentence in advance; but the sins of others appear later [following the offender to the bar of judgment and coming into view there].

25So also, good deeds are evident {and} conspicuous, and even when they are not, they cannot remain hidden [indefinitely].
