Par 

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

2 The elder women as mothers, the younger as sisters, in all chastitie.

3 Honour wydowes, whiche are wydowes in deede.

4 But yf any wydowe haue chyldren or nephewes, let them learne first to rule their owne houses godly, and to recompence also their elder kynsefolkes: for that is good and acceptable before God.
