1 Timoteo 3

Sagradas Escrituras (1569) (Español) SEV

1 La palabra <I>es</I> fiel: Si alguno desea obispado <I>(oficio de pastor o anciano en la Iglesia)</I> , ministerio difícil desea.

2 Conviene, pues, que el obispo sea irreprensible, marido de una <I>sola</I> mujer, vigilante, templado, de afectos <I>mundanos</I> mortificados, hospedador, apto para enseñar;

3 no dado al vino, no heridor, no codicioso de ganancias deshonestas, sino moderado, no litigioso, ajeno de avaricia;

4 que gobierne bien su casa, que tenga sus hijos en sujeción con toda integridad

5 (porque el que no sabe gobernar su casa, ¿cómo cuidará de la Iglesia de Dios?);

6 no un neófito, para que inflándose no caiga en juicio del diablo.

7 También conviene que tenga buen testimonio de los de afuera, para que no caiga en vergüenza y en lazo del diablo.

8 Los diáconos asimismo, honestos, no de dos lenguas, no dados a mucho vino, no amadores de ganancias deshonestas;

9 que tengan el misterio de la fe <I>juntamente</I> con limpia conciencia.

10 Y éstos también sean antes probados; y así ministren, si fueren irreprensibles.

11 Las mujeres asimismo honestas, no detractoras; templadas, fieles en todo.

12 Los diáconos sean maridos de una <I>sola</I> mujer, que gobiernen bien sus hijos y sus casas.

13 Porque los que bien ministraren, ganan para sí buen grado, y mucha confianza en la fe que <I>es</I> en Cristo Jesús.

14 Esto te escribo con <I>la</I> esperanza que iré presto a ti;

15 y si no fuere tan presto, para que sepas cómo convenga conversar en la Casa de Dios, que es la Iglesia del Dios viviente, columna y base de La verdad.

16 Y sin falta, grande es el misterio de la piedad: Dios se ha manifestado en carne; ha sido justificado con el Espíritu; ha sido visto de los Angeles; ha sido predicado a los gentiles; ha sido creído en el mundo; ha sido recibido en gloria.

New International Version NIV

1 Here is a trustworthy saying: Whoever aspires to be an overseer desires a noble task.

2 Now the overseer is to be above reproach, faithful to his wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,

3 not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money.

4 He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full respect.

5 (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?)

6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil.

7 He must also have a good reputation with outsiders, so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil’s trap.

8 In the same way, deacons are to be worthy of respect, sincere, not indulging in much wine, and not pursuing dishonest gain.

9 They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience.

10 They must first be tested; and then if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons.

11 In the same way, the women are to be worthy of respect, not malicious talkers but temperate and trustworthy in everything.

12 A deacon must be faithful to his wife and must manage his children and his household well.

13 Those who have served well gain an excellent standing and great assurance in their faith in Christ Jesus.

14 Although I hope to come to you soon, I am writing you these instructions so that,

15 if I am delayed, you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God’s household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.

16 Beyond all question, the mystery from which true godliness springs is great: He appeared in the flesh, was vindicated by the Spirit,was seen by angels, was preached among the nations, was believed on in the world, was taken up in glory.
