1 ¶ This [is] a trueº saying,º If a manº desireºª the office of a bishop,º he desirethºª a goodº work.º [1] Pv 11:30; Lk 15:10; Ac 1:20; 20:28; Ro 11:13; Ep 4:12; Php 1:1; 1Th 5:14; 1Ti 1:15; 3:2; 4:9; 2Ti 2:11; Tit 1:7; 3:8; He 12:15; Jm 5:19; 1P 2:25; 4:15; 5:2.
How bishops, and deacons, and their wives, should be qualified:2 A bishopº thenº mustºª beºª blameless,º the husbandº of oneº wife,º vigilant,º sober,º of good behaviour,º given to hospitality,º apt to teach;º 3 Notº given to wine,º noº striker,º notº greedy of filthy lucre;º butº patient,º not a brawler,º not covetous;º 4 One that rulethºª wellº his ownº house,º havingºª his childrenº inº subjectionº withº allº gravity;º 5 (Forº if² a man¹² knowºª notº how¹ª to ruleºª his ownº house,º howº shall he take care ofºª the churchº of God?)º 6 Notº a novice,º lestº being lifted up with prideºª he fallºª intoº the condemnationº of the² devil.º 7 Moreoverº¹ heº mustºª² haveºª a goodº reportº ofº them which are without;º lestº he fallºª intoº reproachº andº the snareº of the² devil.º 8 Likewiseº [must] the deaconsº [be] grave,º notº doubletongued,º notº givenºª to muchº wine,º notº greedy of filthy lucre;º 9 Holdingºª the² mysteryº of the² faithº inº a pureº conscience.º 10 And¹² let¹ª theseº also¹² firstº be proved;ºª thenº let them use the office of a deacon,ºª beingºª [found] blameless.º 11 Even soº [must their] wivesº [be] grave,º notº slanderers,º sober,º faithfulº inº all things.º 12 Let¹ª the deaconsº beºª the husbandsº of oneº wife,º rulingºª their childrenº andº their ownº housesº well.º 13 Forº they that have used the office of a deaconºª wellº purchaseºª to themselvesº a goodº degree,º andº greatº boldnessº inº the faithº whichº is inº Christº Jesus.º [2] Is 56:10; Lk 1:6; Ro 12:13; Php 2:15; 1Ti 3:10; 4:3; 5:9; 2Ti 2:24; Tit 1:6, 8; He 3:14; 13:2; 1P 4:7, 9; 5:8.
