1 Timothy 5:20-22

International Standard Version

²⁰ As for those who keep on sinning, rebuke them in front of everyone so that the rest will also be afraid. ²¹ With God as my witness, as well as the Messiah^[a] Jesus and the chosen angels, I solemnly call on you to carry out these instructions without prejudice, doing nothing on the basis of partiality. ²² Do not ordain^[b] anyone hastily. Do not participate in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.
