For an overseer must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not full of passion, not given to wine, not quarrelsome, not greedy for ill gain;

whose mouth you must stop, who subvert whole houses, teaching things not right for the sake of ill gain.

not giving heed to Jewish myths and commandments of men, turning away from the truth.

Let the aged women likewise be in reverent behavior, not slanderers, not enslaved by much wine, teachers of good;

to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, subject to their own husbands, that the Word of God may not be blasphemed.

Slaves are to be obedient to their masters, to please them well in all things, not talking against,

not stealing, but showing all good faith, so that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.

to speak evil of no one, not being quarrelsome, but forbearing, showing all meekness to all men.

not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit,

And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, so that they may not be unfruitful.
