1 Timothy 5:17

Honoring Worthy Elders And Dealing With Sinners

¹⁶ If any woman that believes has dependant widows, she must assist them and not let the congregation be burdened. Then it can assist those who are actually widows. ¹⁷ The elders who rule well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching. ¹⁸ For the scripture said: You must not muzzle the bull while he is threshing. The workman is worthy of his wages.
