1 Timothy
Chapters 3:1-5
Revised Version 1885
1Faithful is the saying, If a man seeketh the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
2The bishop therefore must be without reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, soberminded, orderly, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
3no brawler, no striker; but gentle, not contentious, no lover of money;
4one that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
5(but if a man knoweth not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
