1 Timothy 5:17

Honoring Worthy Elders And Dealing With Sinners

¹⁶ If any believing man or believing woman has widows, let them relieve them, and do not let the church be charged, so that it may relieve those who are widows indeed. ¹⁷ Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in Word and doctrine. ¹⁸ For the Scripture says, "You shall not muzzle the ox treading out grain," and, "The laborer is worthy of his reward."
