YLT - I Timothy - 5

5:1  An aged person thou mayest not rebuke, but be entreating as a father; younger persons as brethren;

5:2  aged women as mothers, younger ones as sisters--in all purity;

5:3  honour widows who are really widows;

5:4  and 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.

5:5  And she who is really a widow and desolate, hath hoped upon God, and doth remain in the supplications and in the prayers night and day,

5:6  and she who is given to luxury, living--hath died;

5:7  and these things charge, that they may be blameless;

5:8  and if any one for his own--and especially for those of the household--doth not provide, the faith he hath denied, and than an unbeliever he is worse.

5:9  A widow--let her not be enrolled under sixty years of age, having been a wife of one husband,

5:10  in 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;

5:11  and younger widows be refusing, for when they may revel against the Christ, they wish to marry,

5:12  having judgment, because the first faith they did cast away,

5:13  and at the same time also, they learn to be idle, going about the houses; and not only idle, but also tattlers and busybodies, speaking the things they ought not;

5:14  I wish, therefore, younger ones to marry, to bear children, to be mistress of the house, to give no occasion to the opposer to reviling;

5:15  for already certain did turn aside after the Adversary.

5:16  If 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.

5:17  The well-leading elders of double honour let them be counted worthy, especially those labouring in word and teaching,

5:18  for the Writing saith, `An ox treading out thou shalt not muzzle,' and `Worthy is the workman of his reward.'

5:19  Against an elder an accusation receive not, except upon two or three witnesses.

5:20  Those sinning, reprove before all, that the others also may have fear;

5:21  I testify fully, before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the choice messengers, that these things thou mayest keep, without forejudging, doing nothing by partiality.

5:22  Be laying hands quickly on no one, nor be having fellowship with sins of others; be keeping thyself pure;

5:23  no longer be drinking water, but a little wine be using, because of thy stomach and of thine often infirmities;

5:24  of certain men the sins are manifest beforehand, leading before to judgment, and certain also they follow after;

5:25  in like manner also the right works are manifest beforehand, and those that are otherwise are not able to be hid.
