1 Timothy 3:5

3:5 But if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for the church of God?

1 Timothy 3:12

3:12 Deacons must be husbands of one wife ¹  and good managers of their children and their own households.

¹ tn Or “men married only once,” “devoted solely to their wives” (see the note on “wife” in 1 Tim 3:2; also 1 Tim 5:9; Titus 1:6).
