1 This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
6 Not a novice,a lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
7 Moreover* he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
8 Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;
10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.
11 Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.
13 For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
14 These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:
15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and groundb of the truth.
