1 Timothy 3:7-15 But it is needful that he have also a good testimony from those without, that he may not fall into reproach, and into the net of Satana.

Etheridge⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ But it is needful that he have also a good testimony from those without, that he may not fall into reproach, and into the net of Satana. ⁸ And also the ministers [M'shamshonee.] must be pure, not speaking doubly, not inclined to much wine, nor shall they love unclean gains. ⁹ But they shall hold the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience. ¹⁰ And these are to be proved first, and then to minister, being without blame. ¹¹ Thus also must the woman be chaste, and they shall be vigilant (in their) minds, and faithful in every thing; and they shall not be accusers. ¹² The ministers [M'shamshonee.] shall be (of them) severally who have one wife, and shall rule each his children and his household well. ¹³ For they who minister well, a good degree acquire for themselves, and much openness of face in the faith of Jeshu Meshiha. ¹⁴ These I write to thee, hoping soon to come to thee; ¹⁵ but if I should delay, that thou mayest know how to converse in the house of Aloha, which is the church of Aloha the Living, the column and foundation of the truth.
