1 Timothy 3:5-16

(For
<1161>
if a man
<1536>
know
<1492> (0)
not
<3756>
how
<1492> (5758)
to rule
<4291> (5629)
his own
<2398>
house
<3624>_,
how
<4459>
shall he take care of
<1959> (5695)
the church
<1577>
of God
<2316>?)
Not
<3361>
a novice
<3504>_,
lest
<3363>
being lifted up with pride
<5187> (5685)
he fall
<1706> (5632)
into
<1519>
the condemnation
<2917>
of the devil
<1228>_.
{a novice: or, one newly come to the faith}
Moreover
<1161> <2532>
he
<846>
must
<1163> (5748)
have
<2192> (5721)
a good
<2570>
report
<3141>
of
<575>
them which are without
<1855>_;
lest
<3363>
he fall
<1706> (5632)
into
<1519>
reproach
<3680>
and
<2532>
the snare
<3803>
of the devil
<1228>_.
Likewise
<5615>
[must] the deacons
<1249>
[be] grave
<4586>_,
not
<3361>
doubletongued
<1351>_,
not
<3361>
given
<4337> (5723)
to much
<4183>
wine
<3631>_,
not
<3361>
greedy of filthy lucre
<146>_;
Holding
<2192> (5723)
the mystery
<3466>
of the faith
<4102>
in
<1722>
a pure
<2513>
conscience
<4893>_.
And
<1161>
let
<1381> (0)
these
<3778>
also
<2532>
first
<4412>
be proved
<1381> (5744)_;
then
<1534>
let them use the office of a deacon
<1247> (5720)_,
being
<5607> (5752)
[found] blameless
<410>_.
Even so
<5615>
[must their] wives
<1135>
[be] grave
<4586>_,
not
<3361>
slanderers
<1228>_,
sober
<3524>_,
faithful
<4103>
in
<1722>
all things
<3956>_.
Let
<2077> (0)
the deacons
<1249>
be
<2077> (5749)
the husbands
<435>
of one
<3391>
wife
<1135>_,
ruling
<4291> (5734)
their children
<5043>
and
<2532>
their own
<2398>
houses
<3624>
well
<2573>_.
For
<1063>
they that have used the office of a deacon
<1247> (5660)
well
<2573>
purchase
<4046> (5731)
to themselves
<1438>
a good
<2570>
degree
<898>_,
and
<2532>
great
<4183>
boldness
<3954>
in
<1722>
the faith
<4102>
which
<3588>
is in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>
Jesus
<2424>_.
{used...: or, ministered}
These things
<5023>
write I
<1125> (5719)
unto thee
<4671>_,
hoping
<1679> (5723)
to come
<2064> (5629)
unto
<4314>
thee
<4571>
shortly
<5032>_:
But
<1161>
if
<1437>
I tarry long
<1019> (5725)_,
that
<2443>
thou mayest know
<1492> (5762)
how
<4459>
thou oughtest
<1163> (5748)
to behave thyself
<390> (5745)
in
<1722>
the house
<3624>
of God
<2316>_,
which
<3748>
is
<2076> (5748)
the church
<1577>
of the living
<2198> (5723)
God
<2316>_,
the pillar
<4769>
and
<2532>
ground
<1477>
of the truth
<225>_.
{ground: or, stay}
And
<2532>
without controversy
<3672>
great
<3173>
is
<2076> (5748)
the mystery
<3466>
of godliness
<2150>_:
God
<2316>
was manifest
<5319> (5681)
in
<1722>
the flesh
<4561>_,
justified
<1344> (5681)
in
<1722>
the Spirit
<4151>_,
seen
<3700> (5681)
of angels
<32>_,
preached
<2784> (5681)
unto
<1722>
the Gentiles
<1484>_,
believed on
<4100> (5681)
in
<1722>
the world
<2889>_,
received up
<353> (5681)
into
<1722>
glory
<1391>_.
