As I urged thee, while going to Macedonia, remain in Ephesis, so that thou might command certain men not to teach something different,

And let these also first be proven, then being blameless, let them serve as deacons.

Do not rebuke an elder man, but entreat him as a father, younger men as brothers,

elder women as mothers, younger women as sisters, in all purity.

Let bondmen, as many as are under a yoke, regard their own masters worthy of all respect, so that the name of God and the doctrine may not be blasphemed.
