1 Timothy 5
- 1 Rebuke not an elder, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brethren:
- 2 the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity.
- 3 Honor widows that are widows indeed.
- 4 But if any widow hath children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety towards their own family, and to requite their parents: for this is acceptable in the sight of God.
- 5 Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, hath her hope set on God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.
- 6 But she that giveth herself to pleasure is dead while she liveth.
- 7 These things also command, that they may be without reproach.
- 8 But if any provideth not for his own, and specially his own household, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever.
- 9 Let none be enrolled as a widow under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man,
- 10 well reported of for good works; if she hath brought up children, if she hath used hospitality to strangers, if she hath washed the saints’ feet, if she hath relieved the afflicted, if she hath diligently followed every good work.
- 11 But younger widows refuse: for when they have waxed wanton against Christ, they desire to marry;
- 12 having condemnation, because they have rejected their first pledge.
- 13 And withal they learn also to be idle, going about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.
- 14 I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule the household, give no occasion to the adversary for reviling:
- 15 for already some are turned aside after Satan.
- 16 If any woman that believeth hath widows, let her relieve them, and let not the church be burdened; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.
- 17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.
- 18 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn. And, The laborer is worthy of his hire.
- 19 Against an elder receive not an accusation, except at the mouth of two or three witnesses.
- 20 Them that sin reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in fear.
- 21 I charge thee in the sight of God, and Christ Jesus, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.
- 22 Lay hands hastily on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins: keep thyself pure.
- 23 Be no longer a drinker of water, but use a little wine for thy stomach’s sake and thine often infirmities.
- 24 Some men’s sins are evident, going before unto judgment; and some men also they follow after.
- 25 In like manner also there are good works that are evident; and such as are otherwise cannot be hid.

American Standard Version (asv - 2)
2021-02-18English (en)
The American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible is in the Public Domain. Please feel free to copy it, give it away, memorize it, publish it, sell it, or whatever God leads you to do with it.
The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.
While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible (http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB), which is also in the Public Domain. The ASV uses "Jehovah" for Godߴs proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.
Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translational problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.- Encoding: UTF-8
