1 Timothy 5:10-12

Worldwide English (New Testament)

¹⁰ People must speak well of the good works she has done. Has she brought up children? Has she been kind to strangers and cared for them in her house? Has she washed the feet of God's people? Has she helped people who were in trouble? Has she done every kind of good thing to help people?

¹¹ But do not choose young women. When they begin to love other things more than Christ, they will want to marry again.

¹² And that will be wrong for them because they have not kept their first promise.
