1 Timothy 3:8-13 ▼

8 Servants, in like manner, dignified, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not given to shameful gain,

9 having the secret of the faith in a pure conscience,

10 and let these also first be proved, then let them minister, being unblameable.

11 Women, in like manner, dignified, not false accusers, vigilant, faithful in all things.

12 Servants—let them be husbands of one wife, leading the children well, and their own houses,

13 for those who ministered well acquire a good step to themselves, and much boldness in faith that [is] in Christ Jesus.
