1 Timothy 3:10-12
International Standard Version
10 But they must first be tested. Then, if they prove to be blameless, let them serve in ministry.[a] 11 Their wives[b] must also be serious. They must not be gossips, but instead be stable and trustworthy in everything. 12 Deacons[c] must be husbands of one wife[d] and must manage their children and their families well.
