1 Timothy 5:17-20

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁷ Let the elders who rule well have double the honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

¹⁸ For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treads out the corn,” and, “The laborer is worthy of his wages.”

¹⁹ Receive no accusation against an elder unless by two or three witnesses.

²⁰ Rebuke those who sin openly, so that the rest may also fear.
