1 Timothy 3:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 [a]Likewise their wives must be honest, not evil speakers, but sober, and faithful in all things.
12 [b]Let the Deacons be the husbands of one wife, and such as can rule their children well, and their own households.
13 For they that have ministered well, get themselves a good [c]decree, and [d]great liberty in the faith, which is in Christ Jesus.
