19 Don’t accept an accusation against an elder unless it is supported by two or three witnesses.(A) 20 Publicly rebuke those who sin, so that the rest will be afraid. 21 I solemnly charge you before God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels to observe(B) these things without prejudice, doing nothing out of favoritism. 22 Don’t be too quick to appoint[a](C) anyone as an elder, and don’t share in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.(D)

1 Timothy 5:19-22
Lexham English Bible
19 Do not accept an accusation against an elder except on the evidence of two or three witnesses. 20 Reprove those who sin in the presence of all, in order that the rest also may experience fear. 21 I testify solemnly before God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing according to partiality. 22 Lay hands on no one hastily, and do not participate in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.
