16 If any believing man or woman has widows, let such assist them, and do not let the assembly be burdened, in order to assist those who are truly widows.
17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double respect, especially those who labour in the word and teaching.
18 For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain,” and, “The labourer is worthy of his wages.”
19 Do not receive an accusation against an elder except from two or three witnesses.
20 Reprove those who are sinning, in the presence of all, so that the rest also might fear.
21 I earnestly witness before Elohim and the Master יהושע Messiah, and the chosen messengers, that you watch over these matters without prejudice, doing none at all with partiality.
22 Do not lay hands on anyone hastily, nor share in sins of others. Keep yourself clean.
