New Testament

1 Timothy 5:7-10 Common English Bible (CEB)

7. Teach these things so that the families will be without fault.

8. But if someone doesn’t provide for their own family, and especially for a member of their household, they have denied the faith. They are worse than those who have no faith.

9. Put a widow on the list who is older than 60 years old and who was faithful to her husband.

10. She should have a reputation for doing good: raising children, providing hospitality to strangers, washing the feet of the saints, helping those in distress, and dedicating herself to every kind of good thing.
