Coverdale⁽ⁱ⁾ ² But a Bisshoppe must be blamelesse, the hussbade of one wife, sober, discrete, manerly, harberous, apte to teach: ³ Not geuen to moch wyne, no fighter, not geuen to filthy lucre: but gentle, abhorrynge stryfe, abhorrynge couetousnes: ⁴ & one that ruleth his awne house honestly, hauynge obedient children with all honestye. ⁵ (But yf a man can not rule his owne house, how shal he care for the congregacion of God?) ⁶ He maye not be a yoge scolar, lest he be puft vp, and fall in to the iudgment of ye euell speaker. ⁷ He must also haue a good reporte of them which are without, lest he fall in to the rebuke and snare of the euell speaker.
