1 Timothy 5

1 Rules to be observed in reproving. 3 Of widows. 17 Of elders. 23 A precept for Timothy's health. 24 Some men's sins go before unto judgment, and some men's do follow after.

 5:1 ¶ Rebuke 1969 z5661 not 3361 an elder, 4245 but 235 intreat 3870 z5720 [him] as 5613 a father; 3962 [and] the younger men 3501 as 5613 brethren; 80

 5:2 The elder women 4245 as 5613 mothers; 3384 the younger 3501 as 5613 sisters, 79 with 1722 all 3956 purity. 47

 5:3 Honour 5091 z5720 widows 5503 that are widows 5503 indeed. 3689

 5:4 But 1161 if x1487 any y1536 x5100 widow 5503 have 2192 z5719 children 5043 or 2228 nephews, 1549 let them learn 3129 z5720 first 4412 to shew piety 2151 z5721 at x2398 home, 3624 y2398 and 2532 to requite 287 591 z5721 their parents: 4269 for 1063 that 5124 is 2076 z5748 good 2570 and 2532 acceptable 587 before 1799 God. 2316

 5:5 Now 1161 she that is a widow 5503 indeed, 3689 and 2532 desolate, 3443 z5772 trusteth 1679 z5758 in 1909 God, 2316 and 2532 continueth 4357 z5719 in supplications 1162 and 2532 prayers 4335 night 3571 and 2532 day. 2250

 5:6 But 1161 she that liveth in pleasure 4684 z5723 is dead 2348 z5758 while she liveth. 2198 z5723

 5:7 And 2532 these things 5023 give in charge, 3853 z5720 that 2443 they may be 5600 z5753 blameless. 423

 5:8 But 1161 if x1487 any y1536 x5100 provide y4306 z5719 not y3756 for x4306 x3756 his own, 2398 and 2532 specially 3122 for those of his own house, 3609 he hath denied 720 z5763 the x3588 faith, 4102 and 2532 is 2076 z5748 worse x5501 than y5501 an infidel. 571

 5:9 Let y2639 z0 not 3361 a widow 5503 be taken into the number 2639 z5744 under 1640 threescore 1835 years x2094 old, y2094 having been 1096 z5756 the wife 1135 of one 1520 man, 435

 5:10 Well reported of 3140 z5746 for 1722 good 2570 works; 2041 if 1487 she have brought up y5044 z5656 children, x5044 if 1487 she have lodged strangers, 3580 z5656 if 1487 she have washed 3538 z5656 the saints' 40 feet, 4228 if y1487 x1497 she have relieved 1884 z5656 the afflicted, 2346 z5746 if 1487 she have diligently followed 1872 z5656 every 3956 good 18 work. 2041

 5:11 But 1161 the younger 3501 widows 5503 refuse: 3868 z5737 for 1063 when 3752 they have begun to wax wanton against 2691 z5661 Christ, 5547 they will 2309 z5719 marry; 1060 z5721

 5:12 Having 2192 z5723 damnation, 2917 because 3754 they have cast off 114 z5656 their first 4413 faith. 4102

 5:13 And 1161 y2532 withal 260 they learn 3129 z5719 [to be] idle, 692 wandering about y4022 z5740 from house to house; 3614 x4022 and 1161 not 3756 only 3440 idle, 692 but 235 tattlers 5397 also 2532 and 2532 busybodies, 4021 speaking 2980 z5723 things which y3588 they ought 1163 z5752 not. 3361

 5:14 I will 1014 z5736 therefore 3767 that the younger women 3501 marry, 1060 z5721 bear children, 5041 z5721 guide the house, 3616 z5721 give 1325 z5721 none 3367 occasion 874 to the x3588 adversary 480 z5740 to y5484 speak reproachfully. 3059 x5484

 5:15 For 1063 some 5100 are y1624 z0 already 2235 turned aside 1624 z5648 after 3694 Satan. 4567

 5:16 If any 1536 man 4103 or 2228 woman that believeth 4103 have 2192 z5719 widows, 5503 let them relieve 1884 z5720 them, 846 and 2532 let y916 z0 not 3361 the x3588 church 1577 be charged; 916 z5744 that 2443 it may relieve 1884 z5661 them that are widows 5503 indeed. 3689

 5:17 Let y515 z0 the x3588 elders 4245 that rule 4291 z5761 well 2573 be counted worthy 515 z5744 of double 1362 honour, 5092 especially 3122 they who labour 2872 z5723 in 1722 the word 3056 and 2532 doctrine. 1319

 5:18 For 1063 the x3588 scripture 1124 saith, 3004 z5719 Thou shalt y5392 z0 not 3756 muzzle 5392 z5692 the ox 1016 that treadeth out x248 the corn. y248 z5723 And, 2532 The x3588 labourer 2040 [is] worthy 514 of his y846 x848 reward. 3408

 5:19 Against 2596 an elder 4245 receive 3858 z5737 not 3361 an accusation, 2724 but 1508 y1622 x1623 before 1909 two 1417 or 2228 three 5140 witnesses. 3144

 5:20 Them that sin 264 z5723 rebuke 1651 z5720 before 1799 all, 3956 that 2443 others 3062 also 2532 may y2192 z5725 fear. 5401 x2192

 5:21 I charge 1263 z5736 [thee] before 1799 God, 2316 and 2532 the Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ, 5547 and 2532 the x3588 elect 1588 angels, 32 that 2443 thou observe 5442 z5661 these things 5023 without 5565 preferring one before another, 4299 doing 4160 z5723 nothing 3367 by 2596 partiality. 4346

 5:22 Lay 2007 z0 hands 5495 suddenly 5030 on y2007 z5720 no man, 3367 neither 3366 be partaker 2841 z5720 of other y245 men's x245 sins: 266 keep 5083 z5720 thyself 4572 pure. 53

 5:23 Drink y5202 z0 no longer y3371 water, 5202 z5720 x3371 but 235 use 5530 z5737 a little 3641 wine 3631 for y1223 thy y4675 stomach's sake 4751 x1223 x4675 and 2532 thine 4675 often 4437 infirmities. 769

 5:24 Some 5100 men's 444 sins 266 are 1526 z5748 open beforehand, 4271 going before 4254 z5723 to 1519 judgment; 2920 and 1161 y2532 some 5100 [men] they x2532 follow after. 1872 z5719

 5:25 Likewise 5615 also 2532 the x3588 good 2570 works 2041 [of some] are 2076 z5748 manifest beforehand; 4271 and 2532 they that are 2192 z5723 otherwise 247 cannot 3756 1410 z5736 be hid. 2928 z5650
