1 Timothy 5:16-25 (King James Version)
View In My Bible
16
If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be charged ; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.
17
Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.
18
For the scripture saith , Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn . And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.
19
Against an elder receive not an accusation, but beforea two or three witnesses.
20
Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.
21
I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.
22
Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.
23
Drink no longer water , but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.
24
Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after .
25
Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid .
