CHAP. V.
1 Rules to be obserued in reproouing. 3 Of widowes. 17 Of Elders. 23 A precept for Timothies health. 24 Some mens sinnes goe before vnto iudgement, and some mens doe follow after.
1 Rebuke not an Elder, but intreate him as a father, and the yonger men as brethren:
2 The elder women as mothers, the yonger as sisters with all puritie.
3 Honour widowes that are widowes indeed.
4 But if any widow haue children or nephewes, let them learne first to shew pietie at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.4
6 But she that liueth in pleasure, is dead while she liueth.6
7 And these things giue in charge, that they may be blamelesse.
8 But if any prouide not for his owne, & specially for those of his owne house, hee hath denied the faith, and is worse then an infidel.8
9 Let not a widow bee taken into the number, vnder threescore yeeres old, hauing bene the wife of one man,9
12 Hauing damnation, because they haue cast off their first faith.
14 I will therefore that the yonger women marry, beare children, guid the house, giue none occasion to the aduersary to speake reprochfully.14
15 For some are already turned aside after Satan.
18 For the Scripture saith, Thou shalt not mousell the oxe that treadeth out the corne: and, The labourer is worthy of his reward.18
19 Against an Elder receiue not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.19
20 Them that sinne rebuke before all, that others also may feare.
21 I charge thee before God, and the Lord Iesus Christ, and the elect Angels, that thou obserue these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partialitie.21
22 Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither bee partaker of other mens sinnes. Keepe thy selfe pure.
23 Drinke no longer water, but vse a little wine for thy stomackes sake, and thine often infirmities.
24 Some mens sinnes are open before hand, going before to iudgement: and some men they follow after.
