1 Timothy 5:14 Context
12Hauing damnation, because they haue cast off their first faith. 13And withall they learne to bee idle, wandering about from house to house; and not onely idle, but tatlers also, and busibodies, speaking things which they ought not. 14I will therefore that the yonger women marry, beare children, guid the house, giue none occasion to the aduersary to speake reprochfully. 15For some are already turned aside after Satan. 16If any man or woman that beleeueth haue widowes, let them relieue them, and let not the Church be charged, that it may relieue them that are widowes indeed.
