1 Timothy 5:16-1964 ·Bible in Basic English

“If any woman of the faith has relations who are widows, let her give them help, so that the care of them does not come on the church, and so it may give help to those who are truly widowed. Let rulers whose rule is good be honoured twice over, specially those whose work is preaching and teaching. For the Writings say, It is not right to keep the ox from taking the grain when he is crushing it. And, The worker has a right to his reward. Do not take as true any statement made against one in authority, but only if two or three give witness to it. Say sharp words to sinners when all are present, so that the rest may be in fear. I give you orders before God and Christ Jesus and the angels of God's selection, to keep these orders without giving thought to one side more than another. Do not put hands on any man without thought, and have no part in other men's sins: keep yourself clean. Do not take only water as your drink, but take a little wine for the good of your stomach, and because you are frequently ill. The sins of some men are clearly seen, going before them to be judged; but with others, their sins go after them. In the same way, there are good works which are clearly seen; and those which are not so, may not be kept secret.”
