1 Timothy 5:10-12
New Matthew Bible
10 and well reported of in good works: if she has raised children, if she has been generous to strangers, if she has washed the feet of the saints, if she has ministered to those who were in adversity, if she was continually given to all manner of good works. 11 The younger widows refuse. For when they have begun to grow wanton, to the dishonour of Christ, then they want to marry, 12 having condemnation because they have broken their first faith.

1 Timothy 5:10-12
New International Version
10 and is well known for her good deeds,(A) such as bringing up children, showing hospitality,(B) washing the feet(C) of the Lord’s people, helping those in trouble(D) and devoting herself to all kinds of good deeds.
11 As for younger widows, do not put them on such a list. For when their sensual desires overcome their dedication to Christ, they want to marry. 12 Thus they bring judgment on themselves, because they have broken their first pledge.
