1 Timothy 5:21-25
New American Standard Bible 1995
21 (A)I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of His chosen angels, to maintain these principles without bias, doing nothing in a spirit of partiality. 22 (B)Do not lay hands upon anyone too hastily and [a]thereby share (C)responsibility for the sins of others; keep yourself [b]free from sin.
23 No longer drink water exclusively, but (D)use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.
24 The sins of some men are quite evident, going before them to judgment; for others, their sins (E)follow after. 25 Likewise also, deeds that are good are quite evident, and (F)those which are otherwise cannot be concealed.
