1 Timothy 3

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 fidelis sermo si quis episcopatum desiderat bonum opus desiderat

2 oportet ergo episcopum inreprehensibilem esse unius uxoris virum sobrium prudentem ornatum hospitalem doctorem

3 non vinolentum non percussorem sed modestum non litigiosum non cupidum

4 suae domui bene praepositum filios habentem subditos cum omni castitate

5 si quis autem domui suae praeesse nescit quomodo ecclesiae Dei diligentiam habebit

6 non neophytum ne in superbia elatus in iudicium incidat diaboli

7 oportet autem illum et testimonium habere bonum ab his qui foris sunt ut non in obprobrium incidat et laqueum diaboli

8 diaconos similiter pudicos non bilingues non multo vino deditos non turpe lucrum sectantes

9 habentes mysterium fidei in conscientia pura

10 et hii autem probentur primum et sic ministrent nullum crimen habentes

11 mulieres similiter pudicas non detrahentes sobrias fideles in omnibus

12 diacones sint unius uxoris viri qui filiis suis bene praesunt et suis domibus

13 qui enim bene ministraverint gradum sibi bonum adquirent et multam fiduciam in fide quae est in Christo Iesu

14 haec tibi scribo sperans venire ad te cito

15 si autem tardavero ut scias quomodo oporteat te in domo Dei conversari quae est ecclesia Dei vivi columna et firmamentum veritatis

16 et manifeste magnum est pietatis sacramentum quod manifestatum est in carne iustificatum est in spiritu apparuit angelis praedicatum est gentibus creditum est in mundo adsumptum est in gloria

New King James Version NKJV

1 This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work.

2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach;

3 not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous;

4 one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence

5 (for if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?);

6 not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil.

7 Moreover he must have a good testimony among those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

8 Likewise deacons must be reverent, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy for money,

9 holding the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience.

10 But let these also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons, being found blameless.

11 Likewise their wives must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.

12 Let deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.

13 For those who have served well as deacons obtain for themselves a good standing and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

14 These things I write to you, though I hope to come to you shortly;

15 but if I am delayed, I write so that you may know how you ought to conduct yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory.
