1 Timothy 3:4-7

English Standard Version

⁴ He must manage his own household well, with all dignity ^(A)keeping his children submissive, ⁵ for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for ^(B)God's church? ⁶ He must not be a recent convert, or he may ^(C)become puffed up with conceit and fall into the condemnation of the devil. ⁷ Moreover, he must be well thought of by ^(D)outsiders, so that he may not fall into disgrace, into ^(E)a snare of the devil.
