3 not a wine-drinker, not a quarrelsome man, but gentle, not contentious, not avaricious,
4 ruling well his own house, having his children in subjection with all dignity,—
5 but if any one knows not how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?—
6 not a novice, lest being inflated with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
7 And he must also have a good name from those without, that he may not fall into reproach and a snare of the devil.
8 (2:2) The deacons in like manner ought to be grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not devoted to base gain,
9 having the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
10 And let these be proved first, then let them serve, being found blameless.
11 The women in like manner must be grave, not slanderers, circumspect, faithful in all things.
12 Let the deacons be husbands of one wife, ruling well their children and their own houses.
13 For they who exercise the deaconship well, procure for themselves an honorable standing, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
