International Standard Version
18 For the Scripture says, “You must not muzzle an ox while it is treading out grain,”[a] and, “A worker deserves his pay.”[b] 19 Do not accept an accusation against an elder unless it is supported “by two or three witnesses.”[c] 20 As for those who keep on sinning, rebuke them in front of everyone so that the rest will also be afraid.
