1 Timothy 3:9-11
Contemporary English Version
9 And they must have a clear conscience and hold firmly to what God has shown us about our faith. 10 They must first prove themselves. Then if no one has anything against them, they can serve as officers.
11 Women[a] must also be serious. They must not gossip or be heavy drinkers, and they must be faithful in everything they do.
