1 Timothy 3:8-13

Wycliffe Bible

⁸ Also it behooveth deacons to be chaste, not double-tongued, not given much to wine [not given to much wine], not following foul winning;

⁹ that have the mystery of faith in clean conscience. [having the mystery of faith in clean conscience.]

¹⁰ But be they proved first, and minister they so, having no crime. [And forsooth be they proved first, that they minister so, having no crime, or great sin.]

¹¹ Also it behooveth women to be chaste, not backbiting, sober, faithful in all things.

¹² Deacons be [they] husbands of one wife; which govern well their sons and their houses.

¹³ For they that [shall] minister well, shall get a good degree to themselves, and much trust in the faith, that is in Christ Jesus.
