1 Timothy 5:15-17
Worldwide English (New Testament)
15 Some have already turned away to follow Satan.
16 Do any Christians have in their families women whose husbands are dead? If they do, they should help them. The church people should not have to care for them. Then the church can help the women who have no one to help them.
17 The leaders of the church people who rule well should be given greater honour and reward. At least do this for those who work hard in speaking and teaching.

15 Some have in fact already turned away to follow Satan.(A)
16 If any woman who is a believer has widows in her care, she should continue to help them and not let the church be burdened with them, so that the church can help those widows who are really in need.(B)
17 The elders(C) who direct the affairs of the church well are worthy of double honor,(D) especially those whose work is preaching and teaching.
