Mga Dapat na Katangian ng mga Tagapangasiwa ng Iglesya
3 Mapagkakatiwalaan ang salitang ito: “Ang nagnanais maging tagapangasiwa[a] ay naghahangad ng marangal na gawain.” 2 Kaya nga, dapat walang maipipintas sa isang tagapangasiwa, asawa ng iisang babae, marunong magpigil sa sarili, maingat, kagalang-galang, may magandang loob sa panauhin, at may kakayahang magturo. 3 Hindi siya dapat naglalasing, hindi marahas kundi mahinahon, hindi palaaway, at hindi maibigin sa salapi. 4 Dapat ay mahusay siyang mamahala sa kanyang sariling sambahayan, tinitiyak niyang sinusunod at iginagalang siya ng kanyang mga anak. 5 Kung hindi siya marunong mamahala sa kanyang sariling sambahayan, paano niya mapapangasiwaan nang maayos ang iglesya ng Diyos? 6 Dapat ay hindi siya baguhang mananampalataya; sapagkat baka siya'y yumabang at mapahamak gaya ng sinapit ng diyablo. 7 Kailangang mabuti ang pagkakilala sa kanya ng mga hindi mananampalataya upang hindi siya mapintasan at hindi mahulog sa bitag ng diyablo.
Mga Dapat na Katangian ng mga Tagapaglingkod ng Iglesya
8 Ang mga tagapaglingkod[b] naman ay dapat ding maging kagalang-galang, tapat sa kanyang salita, hindi naglalasing at hindi sakim sa salapi. 9 Kailangang matibay ang kanilang paninindigan sa pananampalataya nang may malinis na budhi. 10 Kailangang patunayan muna nila ang kanilang sarili, at saka hahayaang maging tagapaglingkod kung mapatunayang karapat-dapat. 11 Ang mga kababaihan nama'y dapat maging kagalang-galang, hindi tsismosa, kundi mapagtimpi at mapagkakatiwalaan sa lahat ng mga bagay. 12 Ang tagapaglingkod ay asawa ng iisang babae, at maayos na mamahala ng kanyang mga anak at sariling sambahayan. 13 Igagalang ng mga tao ang mga tagapaglingkod na tapat sa kanilang tungkulin, kasama na ang kanilang pananampalataya kay Cristo Jesus.
Ang Hiwaga ng ating Pananampalataya
14 Umaasa akong makapupunta ako sa iyo sa lalong madaling panahon, ngunit isinulat ko sa iyo ang mga ito 15 upang kung hindi man ako makarating agad ay malaman mo kung paano ang dapat maging ugali ng bawat kaanib sa sambahayan ng Diyos, na siyang iglesya ng buháy na Diyos, haligi at sandigan ng katotohanan. 16 Sadyang dakila ang hiwaga ng ating sinasampalatayanan:
Siya'y inihayag bilang[c] tao,
pinatunayang matuwid ng Espiritu,[d] nakita ng mga anghel.
Ipinangaral sa mga bansa,
sinampalatayanan sa sanlibutan, at iniakyat sa kaluwalhatian.

Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
3 Tapat ang pasabi, Kung ang sinoman ay magsisikap na maging obispo, ay mabuting gawa ang ninanasa.
2 Dapat nga na ang obispo ay walang kapintasan, asawa ng isa lamang babae, mapagpigil, mahinahon ang pagiisip, mahusay, mapagpatuloy, sapat na makapagturo;
3 Hindi magulo, hindi palaaway, kundi malumanay, hindi mapakipagtalo, hindi maibigin sa salapi;
4 Namamahalang mabuti ng kaniyang sariling sangbahayan, na sinusupil ang kaniyang mga anak na may buong kahusayan;
5 (Nguni't kung ang sinoman nga ay hindi marunong mamahala sa kaniyang sariling sangbahayan paanong makapamamahala sa iglesia ng Dios?)
6 Hindi baguhan, baka siya kung magpalalo ay mahulog sa kaparusahan ng diablo.
7 Bukod dito'y dapat din namang siya'y magkaroon ng mabuting patotoo ng nangasa labas, baka mahulog sa kapintasan at silo ng diablo.
8 Gayon din naman ang mga diakono dapat ay mahuhusay, hindi dalawang dila, hindi mahilig sa maraming alak, hindi mga sakim sa mahahalay na kapakinabangan;
9 Na iniingatan ang hiwaga ng pananampalataya ng malinis na budhi.
10 At ang mga ito rin naman ay subukin muna; kung magkagayo'y mamahalang may pagka diakono, kung walang kapintasan.
11 Gayon din naman ang mga babae dapat ay mahuhusay, hindi palabintangin, mapagpigil, tapat sa lahat ng mga bagay.
12 Maging asawa ang mga diakono ng tigiisa lamang na babae, na pamahalaang mabuti ang kanilang mga anak at ang kanilang sariling mga sangbahayan.
13 Sapagka't ang nangamamahalang mabuti sa pagka diakono, ay nangagtatamo sa kanilang sarili ng isang mabuting kalagayan, at malaking katapangan sa pananampalataya na kay Cristo Jesus.
14 Ang mga bagay na ito ay aking isinusulat sa iyo, na inaasahang makararating sa iyong madali;
15 Nguni't kung ako'y magluwat ng mahabang panahon, ay upang maalaman mo kung paano ang dapat sa mga tao na ugaliin nila sa bahay ng Dios, na siyang iglesia ng Dios na buhay, at haligi at suhay ng katotohanan.
16 At walang pagtatalo, dakila ang hiwaga ng kabanalan; Yaong nahayag sa laman, Pinapaging-banal sa espiritu, Nakita ng mga anghel, Ipinangaral sa mga bansa, Sinampalatayanan sa sanglibutan, Tinanggap sa itaas sa kaluwalhatian.

Leaders in the Church
3 What I say is true: If anyone wants to become an overseer, he is wanting a good work. 2 An overseer must be so good that people cannot rightly criticize him. He must have only one wife. He must have self-control and be wise. He must be respected by other people and must be ready to help people by accepting them into his home. He must be a good teacher. 3 He must not drink too much wine, and he must not be a man who likes to fight. He must be gentle and peaceful. He must not love money. 4 He must be a good leader of his own family so that his children obey him with full respect. 5 (If a man does not know how to be a leader over his own family, he will not be able to take care of God’s church.) 6 But an elder must not be a new believer. A new believer might be too proud of himself. Then he would be judged guilty for his pride just as the devil was. 7 An elder must also have the respect of people who are not in the church. Then he will not be criticized by others and caught in the devil’s trap.
Helpers in the Church
8 In the same way, deacons must be men that people can respect. They must not say things they do not mean. They must not use their time drinking too much wine, and they must not be men who are always trying to get rich by cheating others. 9 They must follow the faith that God made known to us and always do what they know is right. 10 You should test those men first. If you find nothing wrong in them, then they can serve as deacons. 11 In the same way, the women[a] must have the respect of other people. They must not be women who repeat evil gossip about other people. They must have self-control and be women who can be trusted in everything. 12 Deacons must have only one wife. They must be good leaders of their children and their own families. 13 Those who serve well as deacons are making an honorable place for themselves. And they will feel very sure of their faith in Christ Jesus.
The Secret of Our Life
14 I hope I can come to you soon. But I am writing these things to you now. 15 Then, even if I cannot come soon, you will know about the things that people must do in the family of God. That family is the church of the living God, the support and foundation of the truth. 16 Without doubt, the secret of our life of worship is great:
He[b] was shown to us in a human body,
proved right by the Spirit,
and seen by angels.
He was preached to the nations,
believed in by the world,
and taken to heaven in glory.

Qualifications for Overseers and Deacons
3 Here is a trustworthy saying:(A) Whoever aspires to be an overseer(B) desires a noble task. 2 Now the overseer is to be above reproach,(C) faithful to his wife,(D) temperate,(E) self-controlled, respectable, hospitable,(F) able to teach,(G) 3 not given to drunkenness,(H) not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome,(I) not a lover of money.(J) 4 He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full[a] respect.(K) 5 (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?)(L) 6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited(M) and fall under the same judgment(N) as the devil. 7 He must also have a good reputation with outsiders,(O) so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil’s trap.(P)
8 In the same way, deacons[b](Q) are to be worthy of respect, sincere, not indulging in much wine,(R) and not pursuing dishonest gain. 9 They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience.(S) 10 They must first be tested;(T) and then if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons.
11 In the same way, the women[c] are to be worthy of respect, not malicious talkers(U) but temperate(V) and trustworthy in everything.
12 A deacon must be faithful to his wife(W) and must manage his children and his household well.(X) 13 Those who have served well gain an excellent standing and great assurance in their faith in Christ Jesus.
Reasons for Paul’s Instructions
14 Although I hope to come to you soon, I am writing you these instructions so that, 15 if I am delayed, you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God’s household, which is the church(Y) of the living God,(Z) the pillar and foundation of the truth. 16 Beyond all question, the mystery(AA) from which true godliness(AB) springs is great:
