1 Timothy 5:19-22
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
19 Do not be accepting an accusation against an elder unless on the basis of two or three witnesses. 20 Be rebuking the ones sinning in the presence of all[a], in order that the rest also may have fear. 21 I solemnly-charge you in the sight of God and Christ Jesus and the chosen angels that you keep these things without pre-judgment, doing nothing according-to[b] partiality[c]. 22 Be laying hands[d] on no one hastily, nor sharing[e] in the sins belonging-to-others; be keeping yourself pure.
