1 Timothy 5:4-6

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁴ But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to be devoted to their own household and repay their parents,^[a] for this is pleasing in the sight of God. ⁵ Now the widow who is without relatives has put her hope in God and continues in her petitions and prayers night and day. ⁶ But the widow who lives only for her own pleasure is dead, even while she lives.
