1 Timothy 5:11-13
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
But Decline To Include The Young Widows; Let Them Marry
11 But be declining[a] younger[b] widows. For when they grow-sensual[c] against Christ, they want to marry— 12 having condemnation [upon themselves] because[d] they set-aside their first pledge. 13 And at the same time also they are learning to be idle[e], while going-around the houses. And not only idle, but also babblers and busybodies— speaking the things not being proper.
