not a novice, that he may not, being inflated, fall into the fault of the devil.

But it is necessary that he should have also a good testimony from those without, that he may fall not into reproach and the snare of the devil.

Of some men the sins are manifest beforehand, going before to judgment, and some also they follow after.

But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many unwise and hurtful lusts, which plunge men into destruction and ruin.

But thou, O man of God, flee these things, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness of spirit.
