1 Timothy 5:15-17

New International Version

¹⁵ Some have in fact already turned away to follow Satan.^(A)

¹⁶ If any woman who is a believer has widows in her care, she should continue to help them and not let the church be burdened with them, so that the church can help those widows who are really in need.^(B)

¹⁷ The elders^(C) who direct the affairs of the church well are worthy of double honor,^(D) especially those whose work is preaching and teaching.
