1 Timothy 5:9–10; 1 Timothy 5:14

Let a widow be enrolled if she is not less than sixty years of age, having been nthe wife of one husband,1 10 and having a reputation for good works: if she has brought up children, has nshown hospitality, ohas washed the feet of the saints, has pcared for the afflicted, and has qdevoted herself to every good work.


14 So I would have uyounger widows marry, bear children, vmanage their households, and wgive the adversary no occasion for slander.
