1 Timothy 3:2-7

English Standard Version

² Therefore ^(A)an overseer^[a] must be above reproach, ^(B)the husband of one wife,^{[b] (C)}sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, ^(D)hospitable, ^(E)able to teach, ³ not a drunkard, not violent but ^(F)gentle, not quarrelsome, ^(G)not a lover of money. ⁴ He must manage his own household well, with all dignity ^(H)keeping his children submissive, ⁵ for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for ^(I)God's church? ⁶ He must not be a recent convert, or he may ^(J)become puffed up with conceit and fall into the condemnation of the devil. ⁷ Moreover, he must be well thought of by ^(K)outsiders, so that he may not fall into disgrace, into ^(L)a snare of the devil.
