4 Bible Verses about Respect For Old People

Do not reprimand an older man, but plead with him as if he were your father. Treat the young men as brothers,

the older women as mothers, and the younger women as sisters--with all purity.

Again, you younger men should show deference to the older. And all of you should put on the badge of humility in mutual service, for 'God is opposed to the proud, but gives his help to the humble.'

Teach that the older men should be temperate, serious, and discreet; strong in faith, love, and endurance.
