5 And she who is really a widow and desolate, hath hoped upon God, and doth remain in the supplications and in the prayers night and day,
6 and she who is given to luxury, living--hath died;
7 and these things charge, that they may be blameless;
8 and if any one for his own--and especially for those of the household--doth not provide, the faith he hath denied, and than an unbeliever he is worse.
9 A widow--let her not be enrolled under sixty years of age, having been a wife of one husband,
10 in good works being testified to: if she brought up children, if she entertained strangers, if saints' feet she washed, if those in tribulation she relieved, if every good work she followed after;
11 and younger widows be refusing, for when they may revel against the Christ, they wish to marry,
