1Ti 5:1  Rebuke not an elder, but intreat [exhort] him as a father; and [treat] the younger men as brethren;

1Ti 5:2  [treat] The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.

1Ti 5:3  Honour widows that are widows indeed.

1Ti 5:4  But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety [to put their religion into practice by caring for their own family] at home, and to requite [thus repay] their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.

1Ti 5:5  Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, trusteth in God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.

1Ti 5:6  But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.

1Ti 5:7  And these things give in charge, that they may be blameless.

1Ti 5:8  But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house [family [more or less related]], he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

1Ti 5:9  Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore [60] years old, having been the wife of one man.

1Ti 5:10  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 [helped] the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work.

1Ti 5:11  But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry;

1Ti 5:12  Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.

1Ti 5:13  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.

1Ti 5:14  I will therefore [I counsel] that the younger women marry, bear children, guide [manage] the house, [to] give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully [slander].

1Ti 5:15  For some are already turned aside after [to follow] Satan.

1Ti 5:16  If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them relieve [help] them, and let not the church [ congregation ] be charged; that it may relieve [help] them that are widows indeed.

~ What to Do concerning Elders

1Ti 5:17  Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.

1Ti 5:18  For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn.  And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.

1Ti 5:19  Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.

1Ti 5:20  Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.

1Ti 5:21  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 [out of favoritism].

1Ti 5:22  Lay hands suddenly [hastely] on no man, neither be partaker of [share in] other men's sins: keep thyself pure.

1Ti 5:23  Drink no longer [only] water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often [frequent] infirmities [illnesses].

1Ti 5:24  Some men's sins are open [obvious] beforehand, going before [them] to judgment; and some men they follow after.

1Ti 5:25  Likewise also the good works of some are manifest [obvious] beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.
