1 Timothy 3:11-13

EasyEnglish Bible

¹¹ Deacons' wives must live good lives, so that people respect them.^[a] They must not say bad things against people. They must think carefully about how they live. People should know that they are honest in everything they do.

¹² A deacon must be the husband of one wife. He must take care of his children and everyone who lives in his house. ¹³ If a deacon serves God's people well, then people will respect him as a good person. He will become strong to tell people about his faith in Christ Jesus.
