1 Timothy 5:3-16

Honour
<5091> (5720)
widows
<5503>
that are widows
<5503>
indeed
<3689>_.
But
<1161>
if any
<1536>
widow
<5503>
have
<2192> (5719)
children
<5043>
or
<2228>
nephews
<1549>_,
let them learn
<3129> (5720)
first
<4412>
to shew piety
<2151> (5721)
at home
<2398> <3624>_,
and
<2532>
to requite
<287> <591> (5721)
their parents
<4269>_:
for
<1063>
that
<5124>
is
<2076> (5748)
good
<2570>
and
<2532>
acceptable
<587>
before
<1799>
God
<2316>_.
{piety: or, kindness}
Now
<1161>
she that is a widow
<5503>
indeed
<3689>_,
and
<2532>
desolate
<3443> (5772)_,
trusteth
<1679> (5758)
in
<1909>
God
<2316>_,
and
<2532>
continueth
<4357> (5719)
in supplications
<1162>
and
<2532>
prayers
<4335>
night
<3571>
and
<2532>
day
<2250>_.
But
<1161>
she that liveth in pleasure
<4684> (5723)
is dead
<2348> (5758)
while she liveth
<2198> (5723)_.
{in...: or, delicately}
And
<2532>
these things
<5023>
give in charge
<3853> (5720)_,
that
<2443>
they may be
<5600> (5753)
blameless
<423>_.
But
<1161>
if any
<1536>
provide
<4306> (5719)
not
<3756>
for his own
<2398>_,
and
<2532>
specially
<3122>
for those of his own house
<3609>_,
he hath denied
<720> (5763)
the faith
<4102>_,
and
<2532>
is
<2076> (5748)
worse than
<5501>
an infidel
<571>_.
{house: or, kindred}
Let
<2639> (0)
not
<3361>
a widow
<5503>
be taken into the number
<2639> (5744)
under
<1640>
threescore
<1835>
years old
<2094>_,
having been
<1096> (5756)
the wife
<1135>
of one
<1520>
man
<435>_,
{taken...: or, chosen}
Well reported of
<3140> (5746)
for
<1722>
good
<2570>
works
<2041>_;
if
<1487>
she have brought up
<5044> (5656)
children, if
<1487>
she have lodged strangers
<3580> (5656)_,
if
<1487>
she have washed
<3538> (5656)
the saints
<40>_'
feet
<4228>_,
if
<1487>
she have relieved
<1884> (5656)
the afflicted
<2346> (5746)_,
if
<1487>
she have diligently followed
<1872> (5656)
every
<3956>
good
<18>
work
<2041>_.
But
<1161>
the younger
<3501>
widows
<5503>
refuse
<3868> (5737)_:
for
<1063>
when
<3752>
they have begun to wax wanton against
<2691> (5661)
Christ
<5547>_,
they will
<2309> (5719)
marry
<1060> (5721)_;
Having
<2192> (5723)
damnation
<2917>_,
because
<3754>
they have cast off
<114> (5656)
their first
<4413>
faith
<4102>_.
And
<1161> <2532>
withal
<260>
they learn
<3129> (5719)
[to be] idle
<692>_,
wandering about
<4022> (5740)
from house to house
<3614>_;
and
<1161>
not
<3756>
only
<3440>
idle
<692>_,
but
<235>
tattlers
<5397>
also
<2532>
and
<2532>
busybodies
<4021>_,
speaking
<2980> (5723)
things which
<3588>
they ought
<1163> (5752)
not
<3361>_.
I will
<1014> (5736)
therefore
<3767>
that the younger women
<3501>
marry
<1060> (5721)_,
bear children
<5041> (5721)_,
guide the house
<3616> (5721)_,
give
<1325> (5721)
none
<3367>
occasion
<874>
to the adversary
<480> (5740)
to
<5484>
speak reproachfully
<3059>_.
{to speak...: Gr. for their railing}
For
<1063>
some
<5100>
are
<1624> (0)
already
<2235>
turned aside
<1624> (5648)
after
<3694>
Satan
<4567>_.
If any
<1536>
man
<4103>
or
<2228>
woman that believeth
<4103>
have
<2192> (5719)
widows
<5503>_,
let them relieve
<1884> (5720)
them
<846>_,
and
<2532>
let
<916> (0)
not
<3361>
the church
<1577>
be charged
<916> (5744)_;
that
<2443>
it may relieve
<1884> (5661)
them that are widows
<5503>
indeed
<3689>_.
