18for the Writing saith, `An ox treading out thou shalt not muzzle,' and `Worthy `is' the workman of his reward.'
19Against an elder an accusation receive not, except upon two or three witnesses.
12And we ask you, brethren, to know those labouring among you, and leading you in the Lord, and admonishing you,
13and to esteem them very abundantly in love, because of their work; be at peace among yourselves;
1Elders who `are' among you, I exhort, who `am' a fellow-elder, and a witness of the sufferings of the Christ, and of the glory about to be revealed a partaker,
2feed the flock of God that `is' among you, overseeing not constrainedly, but willingly, neither for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind,
3neither as exercising lordship over the heritages, but patterns becoming of the flock,
4and at the manifestation of the chief Shepherd, ye shall receive the unfading crown of glory.
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.
17Be obedient to those leading you, and be subject, for these do watch for your souls, as about to give account, that with joy they may do this, and not sighing, for this `is' unprofitable to you.
1An aged person thou mayest not rebuke, but be entreating as a father; younger persons as brethren;
2aged women as mothers, younger ones as sisters -- in all purity;
3honour widows who are really widows;
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.
1As many as are servants under a yoke, their own masters worthy of all honour let them reckon, that the name of God and the teaching may not be evil spoken of;
2and those having believing masters, let them not slight `them', because they are brethren, but rather let them serve, because they are stedfast and beloved, who of the benefit are partaking. These things be teaching and exhorting;
7Be mindful of those leading you, who did speak to you the word of God, whose faith -- considering the issue of the behaviour -- be imitating,
7or ministration -- `In the ministration!' or he who is teaching -- `In the teaching!'
1And thou -- be speaking what doth become the sound teaching;
2aged men to be temperate, grave, sober, sound in the faith, in the love, in the endurance;
3aged women, in like manner, in deportment as doth become sacred persons, not false accusers, to much wine not enslaved, of good things teachers,
12Ministrants -- let them be of one wife husbands; the children leading well, and their own houses,
13for those who did minister well a good step to themselves do acquire, and much boldness in faith that `is' in Christ Jesus.
14These things remind `them' of, testifying fully before the Lord -- not to strive about words to nothing profitable, but to the subversion of those hearing;
15be diligent to present thyself approved to God -- a workman irreproachable, rightly dividing the word of the truth;
17to all give ye honour; the brotherhood love ye; God fear ye; the king honour ye.
14so also did the Lord direct to those proclaiming the good news: of the good news to live.
6the labouring husbandman it behoveth first of the fruits to partake;
1Stedfast `is' the word: If any one the oversight doth long for, a right work he desireth;
2it behoveth, therefore, the overseer to be blameless, of one wife a husband, vigilant, sober, decent, a friend of strangers, apt to teach,
11Charge these things, and teach;
7and these things charge, that they may be blameless;
5For this cause left I thee in Crete, that the things lacking thou mayest arrange, and mayest set down in every city elders, as I did appoint to thee;
6if any one is blameless, of one wife a husband, having children stedfast, not under accusation of riotous living or insubordinate --
7for it behoveth the overseer to be blameless, as God's steward, not self-pleased, nor irascible, not given to wine, not a striker, not given to filthy lucre;
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;
8Ministrants -- in like manner grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not given to filthy lucre,
15these things be speaking, and exhorting, and convicting, with all charge; let no one despise thee!
9A widow -- let her not be enrolled under sixty years of age, having been a wife of one husband,
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;
4his own house leading well, having children in subjection with all gravity,
5(and if any one his own house `how' to lead hath not known, how an assembly of God shall he take care of?)
5Beloved, faithfully dost thou do whatever thou mayest work to the brethren and to the strangers,
10not purloining, but showing all good stedfastness, that the teaching of God our Saviour they may adorn in all things.
14whether to governors, as to those sent through him, for punishment, indeed, of evil-doers, and a praise of those doing good;
5sober, pure, keepers of `their own' houses, good, subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be evil spoken of.
7`And in that house remain, eating and drinking the things they have, for worthy `is' the workman of his hire; go not from house to house,
11if any one doth speak -- `as oracles of God;' if any one doth minister -- `as of the ability which God doth supply;' that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the power -- to the ages of the ages. Amen.
10and let these also first be proved, then let them minister, being unblameable.
12and such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness working, their own bread they may eat;
