*|which is ¢,
14 These_things write_I unto_thee, hoping to_-come unto thee shortly ;
1% But if I_tarry_long, that thou_ ‘mayest_know how thou_oughtest to_ behave thyself in the house of_God, church of_the_living God, the pillar and / ground of_the truth.
16 And without_controversy great is the mystery of_-godliness :
God was_manifest in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit,
Seen of_angels,
Preached «unto the » Gentiles, Believed_on in the world, Received_up ‘into glory.
b NOW theSpirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall_ depart_from the faith, giving_heed_to seducing spirits, and doctrines of_ d devils ; 2 Speaking_lies in hypocrisy, “having -their o conscience seared_with_a_hot_
iron,
8 Forbidding to_marry, and com- manding to_abstain_from meats, which -God hath created to_be received with thanksgiving of_them_which believe and / “know the truth.
4 For every creature of_God is good, and nothing to_be_refused, +if_it_be_ received with thanksgiving :
5 For it_is_sanctified thy the word of_God and *% prayer.
6 -sIf_thou_put the brethren in_re- membrance _ of these _ things, thou_ shalt_be a good minister of_Jesus Christ, snourished_up in_the words of_rfaith and of_-good doctrine, « whereunto thou_hast_attained.
7 But ‘refuse «profane and cold_ wives’ ‘fables, and t'exercise thyself rather unto 9 godliness.
8 For -bodily ‘exercise profiteth atlittle: but v-godliness is profitable unto all_things, having promise of_the_ life that now_is, and of_-that_which is_to_come.
9 This is a faithful saying and worthy of_all acceptation.
10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we_? “trust oin the living God, who is the Saviour of_all men, specially of_those_that_believe.
11 These_things«'command and 'teach.
12 'Let »no_man despise thy youth ; but 'be_thou an example of_the be- lievers, in word, in >conversation, in ‘charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
13 Till I_come, 'give_attendance to_ rreading, to_-exhortation, to_‘e-doc- trine.
14 'Neglect not the gift that_is in thee, which was_given thee “hy prophecy, with the laying_on of_the hands of_the presbytery.
15 'Meditate _ upon these _ things ; »'give_thyself_wholly *to them; that thy ~profiting may appear 7% to =all.
16 'Take_heed unto_thyself, and unto_ the tedoctrine; 'continue_in them: for 4in_doing this thou_shalt both save thpself, and -+them_that hear thee.
5 *“REBUKE not an elder, but 'intreat him as a father; and the younger_ men as brethren ;
younger as sisters, ¢ with all purity. 8 'Honow
indeed,
4 But if any widow have children or gnephews, 'let_them_learn first to_shew_ piety tat home, and to_requite their peparents: for that is good and accept- able before -God.
5 Now she_that_is a widow indeed, and “desolate, **“trusteth oin -God. and continueth_in -supplications and “prayers night and day.
6 But ‘is_dead +while_she_liveth.
7 And these_things 'give_in_charge, i
that they_may_be blameless.
8 But if any provide not for ~his_own, and specially for those of_his_own_ house, he_hath_denied the faith, and is worse than_an_« infidel.
9'Let not a widow be_taken_into the_ number under threescore years old, “having_been the wife of_one man,
10 1Well_reported_of ‘for good works ; ifshe_have_brought_up_children, if she_ have _lodged _strangers, if she_have_ washed the saints’ feet, if she_have_re- lieved the -afflicted, if she_have_adili- gently_followed every good work.
11 But the younger widows 'refuse: for when they_have_begun_to _wax_ wanton _against Christ, they -4'will marry ;
12 Having j damnation, because they_ have_cast_off their «first faith.
13 And withal they_learn «« to be idle, wandering _ about from — house _ to_ house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking ~things_ which they ought not.
14 J_'will therefore ric a women marry, bear_children, guide_ the_house, give none occasion to_the adversary to_speak_reproachfully.
15 For some are already turned_aside after “Satan.
16 If any man or woman that_be- lieveth have widows, 'let_them_relieve them, and 'let not the church be_ charged; that it_-may_relieve them_ that_are widows indeed,
17 'Let the elders “that_rule well be_counted_worthy of_double honour, especially —they_who labour in the word and ¢ doctrine.
18 For the scripture saith, “THov_ SHALT NOT MUZZLE the OX 4THAT _ TREADETH_oUT_the_corn.” And, “THE LABOURER 78 WORTHY OF_HIS /' “REWARD.”
19 Against an elder ‘receive not an|h.
accusation, but “before two or three witnesses.
20 -Them_that sin 'rebuke before alll, | »
that “others also may fear.
21 J_charge thee before -God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou_-observe these_things without p preferring_one_before_another, doing nothing by partiality.
2 'Lay hands ‘suddenly on ” no_ man, neither 'be_partaker_of other_ men’s sins: 'keep thpself pure.
2% 'Drink no_longer water, but ‘use a little wine for thy «stomach’s sake, and thine often infirmities.
