1 Timothy 5 — YLT
5Verse 1An aged person thou mayest not rebuke, but be entreating as a father; younger persons as brethren;Verse 2aged women as mothers, younger ones as sisters — in all purity;Verse 3honour widows who are really widows;Verse 4and if any widow have children or grandchildren, let them learn first to their own house to show piety, and to give back a recompense to the parents, for this is right and acceptable before God.Verse 5And she who is really a widow and desolate, hath hoped upon God, and doth remain in the supplications and in the prayers night and day,Verse 6and she who is given to luxury, living — hath died;Verse 7and these things charge, that they may be blameless;Verse 8and if any one for his own — and especially for those of the household — doth not provide, the faith he hath denied, and than an unbeliever he is worse.Verse 9A widow — let her not be enrolled under sixty years of age, having been a wife of one husband,Verse 10in good works being testified to: if she brought up children, if she entertained strangers, if saints' feet she washed, if those in tribulation she relieved, if every good work she followed after;Verse 11and younger widows be refusing, for when they may revel against the Christ, they wish to marry,Verse 12having judgment, because the first faith they did cast away,Verse 13and at the same time also, they learn [to be] idle, going about the houses; and not only idle, but also tattlers and busybodies, speaking the things they ought not;Verse 14I wish, therefore, younger ones to marry, to bear children, to be mistress of the house, to give no occasion to the opposer to reviling;Verse 15for already certain did turn aside after the Adversary.Verse 16If any believing man or believing woman have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the assembly be burdened, that those really widows it may relieve.Verse 17The well-leading elders of double honour let them be counted worthy, especially those labouring in word and teaching,Verse 18for the Writing saith, 'An ox treading out thou shalt not muzzle,' and 'Worthy [is] the workman of his reward.'Verse 19Against an elder an accusation receive not, except upon two or three witnesses.Verse 20Those sinning, reprove before all, that the others also may have fear;Verse 21I testify fully, before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the choice messengers, that these things thou mayest keep, without forejudging, doing nothing by partiality.Verse 22Be laying hands quickly on no one, nor be having fellowship with sins of others; be keeping thyself pure;Verse 23no longer be drinking water, but a little wine be using, because of thy stomach and of thine often infirmities;Verse 24of certain men the sins are manifest beforehand, leading before to judgment, and certain also they follow after;Verse 25in like manner also the right works are manifest beforehand, and those that are otherwise are not able to be hid.
