1 Timothy 5:17-19
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Give Unbiased Church Support And Respect To Elders Leading Well
17 Let the elders having led well be considered-worthy of double[a] honor, especially[b] the ones laboring in word[c] and teaching. 18 For the Scripture says “You shall not muzzle a threshing ox” [Deut 25:4], and “The worker is worthy of his wages” [Lk 10:7]. 19 Do not be accepting an accusation against an elder unless on the basis of two or three witnesses.
