1 Timothy 5:7-9

Worldwide English (New Testament)

⁷ Tell them these things so that they will do what is right.

⁸ A man must care for his own people. At least he must care for his family. If he does not care for them, he shows that he does not believe in God. He is worse than one who has never believed.

⁹ A widow who is over sixty years old, may be chosen to help the church people. But she must have been the wife of one husband.
