Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ² It is needful, then, for, the overseer, to be irreproachable, a husband, of one wife, sober, of sound mind, orderly, hospitable, apt in teaching, ³ Not given to wine, not ready to wound, but considerate, averse to contention, not fond of money, ⁴ Over his own house, presiding, well, having, children, in submission, with all dignity; ⁵ Whereas, if anyone, over his own house, cannot, preside, how, of an assembly of God, shall he take care? ⁶ Not a new convert, lest, being beclouded, into the sentence of the adversary, he fall; ⁷ It is needful, moreover, to have, an honourable testimony also, from them who are without, lest, into reproach, he fall, and the snare of the adversary.
