1 Timothy 3:4

Context
3:4 He must manage his own household well and keep his children in control without losing his dignity. 1 

1 Timothy 3:12

Context
3:12 Deacons must be husbands of one wife 2  and good managers of their children and their own households.

1 tn Grk “having children in submission with all dignity.” The last phrase, “keep his children in control without losing his dignity,” may refer to the children rather than the parent: “having children who are obedient and respectful.”

2 tn Or “men married only once,” “devoted solely to their wives” (see the note on “wife” in 1 Tim 3:2; also 1 Tim 5:9; Titus 1:6).
