¹¹ But do not put younger widows on that list. After they give themselves to Christ, they are pulled away from him by their physical desires, and then they want to marry again. ¹² They will be judged for ·not doing what they first promised to do [breaking/despising their first pledge]. ¹³ Besides that, they learn to ·waste their time [be idle], going from house to house. And they not only ·waste their time [are idlers] but also begin to gossip and ·busy themselves with other people’s lives [become busybodies/meddlers], saying things they should not say. ¹⁴ So I want the younger widows to marry, have children, and manage their homes. Then ·no enemy will [or the adversary will not; ^CSatan] have any ·reason [or opportunity] ·to criticize them [or for maligning/slandering (us/them)]. ¹⁵ But some have already ·turned [wandered; strayed] away to follow Satan.
