1 Timothy 3:8-13
New Living Translation
8 In the same way, deacons must be well respected and have integrity. They must not be heavy drinkers or dishonest with money. 9 They must be committed to the mystery of the faith now revealed and must live with a clear conscience. 10 Before they are appointed as deacons, let them be closely examined. If they pass the test, then let them serve as deacons.
11 In the same way, their wives[a] must be respected and must not slander others. They must exercise self-control and be faithful in everything they do.
12 A deacon must be faithful to his wife, and he must manage his children and household well. 13 Those who do well as deacons will be rewarded with respect from others and will have increased confidence in their faith in Christ Jesus.

New American Standard Bible
8 (A)Deacons likewise must be men of dignity, not [a]insincere, (B)not prone to drink much wine, (C)not greedy for money, 9 (D)but holding to the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience. 10 (E)These men must also first be tested; then have them serve as deacons if they are beyond reproach. 11 [b]Women must likewise be dignified, (F)not malicious gossips, but [c](G)temperate, faithful in all things. 12 (H)Deacons must be (I)husbands of one wife, and [d](J)good managers of their children and their own households. 13 For those who have served well as deacons (K)obtain for themselves a [e]high standing and great confidence in the faith that is in Christ Jesus.

Requisitos para los diáconos
8 De la misma manera, también los diáconos(A) deben ser dignos, de una sola palabra[a], no dados al mucho vino(B), ni amantes de ganancias deshonestas(C), 9 sino guardando el misterio de la fe(D) con limpia conciencia. 10 Que también estos sean sometidos a prueba primero(E), y si son irreprensibles, que entonces sirvan como diáconos. 11 De igual manera, las mujeres[b] deben ser dignas, no calumniadoras(F), sino sobrias(G), fieles en todo. 12 Que los diáconos(H) sean maridos(I) de una sola mujer, y que gobiernen bien[c](J) sus hijos y sus propias casas. 13 Pues los que han servido bien como diáconos(K) obtienen para sí una posición honrosa[d] y gran confianza en la fe que es en Cristo Jesús.
