1 Timothy 5:11-15

New American Standard Bible

¹¹ But refuse to register younger widows, for when they feel ^(A)physical desires alienating them from Christ, they want to get married, ¹² thereby incurring condemnation, because they have ^[a]ignored their previous pledge. ¹³ At the same time they also learn to be idle, as they go around from house to house; and not merely idle, but also they become ^(B)gossips and ^(C)busybodies, talking about ^(D)things not proper to mention. ¹⁴ Therefore, I want younger widows to get ^(E)married, have children, ^(F)manage their households, and ^(G)give the enemy no opportunity for reproach; ¹⁵ for some ^(H)have already turned away to follow ^(I)Satan.
