|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | An ancient man rebuke not, but entreat him as a father: young men, as brethren: | Seniorem ne increpaveris, sed obsecra ut patrem: iuvenes, ut fratres: | Πρεσβυτέρῳ μὴ ἐπιπλήξῃς, ἀλλὰ παρακάλει ὡς πατέρα, νεωτέρους ὡς ἀδελφούς, |
| 2 | Old women, as mothers: young women, as sisters, in all chastity. | anus, ut matres: iuvenculas, ut sorores in omni castitate: | πρεσβυτέρας ὡς μητέρας, νεωτέρας ὡς ἀδελφὰς ἐν πάσῃ ἁγνείᾳ. |
| 3 | Honour widows, that are widows indeed. | viduas honora, quae vere viduae sunt. | Χήρας τίμα τὰς ὄντως χήρας. |
| 4 | But if any widow have children, or grandchildren, let her learn first to govern her own house, and to make a return of duty to her parents: for this is acceptable before God. | Si qua autem vidua filios, aut nepotes habet: discat primum domum suam regere, et mutuam vicem reddere parentibus: hoc enim acceptum est coram Deo. | εἰ δέ τις χήρα τέκνα ἢ ἔκγονα ἔχει, μανθανέτωσαν πρῶτον τὸν ἴδιον οἶκον εὐσεβεῖν καὶ ἀμοιβὰς ἀποδιδόναι τοῖς προγόνοις· τοῦτο γάρ ἐστι καλὸν καὶ ἀπόδεκτον ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ. |
| 5 | But she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, let her trust in God, and continue in supplications and prayers night and day. | Quae autem vere vidua est, et desolata, speret in Deum, et instet obsecrationibus, et orationibus nocte ac die. | ἡ δὲ ὄντως χήρα καὶ μεμονωμένη ἤλπικεν ἐπὶ τὸν Θεὸν καὶ προσμένει ταῖς δεήσεσι καὶ ταῖς προσευχαῖς νυκτὸς καὶ ἡμέρας· |
| 6 | For she that liveth in pleasures, is dead while she is living. | Nam quae in deliciis est, vivens mortua est. | ἡ δὲ σπαταλῶσα ζῶσα τέθνηκε. |
| 7 | And this give in charge, that they may be blameless. | Et hoc praecipe, ut irreprehensibiles sint. | καὶ ταῦτα παράγγελλε, ἵνα ἀνεπίληπτοι ὦσιν. |
| 8 | But if any man have not care of his own, and especially of those of his house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel. | Si quis autem suorum, et maxime domesticorum, curam non habet, fidem negavit, et est infideli deterior. | εἰ δέ τις τῶν ἰδίων καὶ μάλιστα τῶν οἰκείων οὐ προνοεῖ, τὴν πίστιν ἤρνηται καὶ ἔστιν ἀπίστου χείρων. |
| 9 | Let a widow be chosen of no less than threescore years of age, who hath been the wife of one husband. | Vidua eligatur non minus sexaginta annorum, quae fuerit unius viri uxor, | Χήρα καταλεγέσθω μὴ ἔλαττον ἐτῶν ἑξήκοντα γεγονυῖα, ἑνὸς ἀνδρὸς γυνή, |
| 10 | Having testimony for her good works, if she have brought up children, if she have received to harbour, if she have washed the saints’ feet, if she have ministered to them that suffer tribulation, if she have diligently followed every good work. | in operibus bonis testimonium habens, si filios educavit, si hospitio recepit, si sanctorum pedes lavit, si tribulationem patientibus subministravit, si omne opus bonum subsecuta est. | ἐν ἔργοις καλοῖς μαρτυρουμένη, εἰ ἐτεκνοτρόφησεν, εἰ ἐξενοδόχησεν, εἰ ἁγίων πόδας ἔνιψεν, εἰ θλιβομένοις ἐπήρκεσεν, εἰ παντὶ ἔργῳ ἀγαθῷ ἐπηκολούθησε. |
| 11 | But the younger widows avoid. For when they have grown wanton in Christ, they will marry: | Adolescentiores autem viduas devita: cum enim luxuriatae fuerint in Christo, nubere volunt: | νεωτέρας δὲ χήρας παραιτοῦ· ὅταν γὰρ καταστρηνιάσωσι τοῦ Χριστοῦ, γαμεῖν θέλουσιν, |
| 12 | Having damnation, because they have made void their first faith. | habentes damnationem, quia primam fidem irritam fecerunt; | ἔχουσαι κρῖμα, ὅτι τὴν πρώτην πίστιν ἠθέτησαν· |
| 13 | And withal being idle they learn to go about from house to house: and are not only idle, but tattlers also, and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not. | simul autem et otiosae discunt circuire domos: non solum otiosae, sed et verbosae, et curiosae, loquentes quae non oportet. | ἅμα δὲ καὶ ἀργαὶ μανθάνουσι περιερχόμεναι τὰς οἰκίας, οὐ μόνον δὲ ἀργαί, ἀλλὰ καὶ φλύαροι καὶ περίεργοι, λαλοῦσαι τὰ μὴ δέοντα. |
| 14 | I will therefore that the younger should marry, bear children, be mistresses of families, give no occasion to the adversary to speak evil. | Volo ergo iuniores nubere, filios procreare, matresfamilias esse, nullam occasionem dare adversario maledicti gratia. | βούλομαι οὖν νεωτέρας γαμεῖν, τεκνογονεῖν, οἰκοδεσποτεῖν, μηδεμίαν ἀφορμὴν διδόναι τῷ ἀντικειμένῳ λοιδορίας χάριν. |
| 15 | For some are already turned aside after Satan. | Iam enim quaedam conversae sunt retro Satanam. | ἤδη γάρ τινες ἐξετράπησαν ὀπίσω τοῦ σατανᾶ. |
| 16 | If any of the faithful have widows, let him minister to them, and let not the church be charged: that there may be sufficient for them that are widows indeed. | Si quis fidelis habet viduas, subministret illis, et non gravetur ecclesia: ut iis quae vere viduae sunt, sufficiat. | εἴ τις πιστὸς ἢ πιστὴ ἔχει χήρας, ἐπαρκείτω αὐταῖς, καὶ μὴ βαρείσθω ἡ ἐκκλησία, ἵνα ταῖς ὄντως χήραις ἐπαρκέσῃ. |
| 17 | Let the priests that rule well, be esteemed worthy of double honour: especially they who labour in the word and doctrine: | Qui bene praesunt presbyteri, duplici honore digni habeantur: maxime qui laborant in verbo et doctrina. | Οἱ καλῶς προεστῶτες πρεσβύτεροι διπλῆς τιμῆς ἀξιούσθωσαν, μάλιστα οἱ κοπιῶντες ἐν λόγῳ καὶ διδασκαλίᾳ· |
| 18 | For the scripture saith: Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn: and, The labourer is worthy of his reward. | Dicit enim Scriptura: Non alligabis os bovi trituranti. Et: Dignus est operarius mercede sua. | λέγει γὰρ ἡ γραφή· βοῦν ἀλοῶντα οὐ φιμώσεις· καί· ἄξιος ὁ ἐργάτης τοῦ μισθοῦ αὐτοῦ. |
| 19 | Against a priest receive not an accusation, but under two or three witnesses. | Adversus presbyterum accusationem noli recipere, nisi sub duobus aut tribus testibus. | κατὰ πρεσβυτέρου κατηγορίαν μὴ παραδέχου, ἐκτὸς εἰ μὴ ἐπὶ δύο ἢ τριῶν μαρτύρων. |
| 20 | Them that sin reprove before all: that the rest also may have fear. | Peccantes coram omnibus argue: ut et ceteri timorem habeant. | τοὺς ἁμαρτάνοντας ἐνώπιον πάντων ἔλεγχε, ἵνα καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ φόβον ἔχωσι. |
| 21 | I charge thee before God, and Christ Jesus, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by declining to either side. | Testor coram Deo et Christo Iesu, et electis angelis, ut haec custodias sine praeiudicio, nihil faciens in alteram partem declinando. | διαμαρτύρομαι ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ τῶν ἐκλεκτῶν ἀγγέλων, ἵνα ταῦτα φυλάξῃς, χωρὶς προκρίματος μηδὲν ποιῶν κατὰ πρόσκλησιν. |
| 22 | Impose not hands lightly upon any man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins. Keep thyself chaste. | Manus cito nemini imposueris, neque communicaveris peccatis alienis. Teipsum castum custodi. | χεῖρας ταχέως μηδενὶ ἐπιτίθει, μηδὲ κοινώνει ἁμαρτίαις ἀλλοτρίαις· σεαυτὸν ἁγνὸν τήρει. |
| 23 | Do not still drink water, but use a little wine for thy stomach’s sake, and thy frequent infirmities. | Noli adhuc aquam bibere, sed modico vino utere propter stomachum tuum, et frequentes tuas infirmitates. | Μηκέτι ὑδροπότει, ἀλλ᾽ οἴνῳ ὀλίγῳ χρῶ διὰ τὸν στόμαχόν σου καὶ τὰς πυκνάς σου ἀσθενείας. |
| 24 | Some men’s sins are manifest, going before to judgment: and some men they follow after. | Quorumdam hominum peccata manifesta sunt, praecedentia ad iudicium: quosdam autem et subsequuntur. | Τινῶν ἀνθρώπων αἱ ἁμαρτίαι πρόδηλοί εἰσι, προάγουσαι εἰς κρίσιν, τισὶ δὲ καὶ ἐπακολουθοῦσιν· |
| 25 | In like manner also good deeds are manifest: and they that are otherwise, cannot be hid. | Similiter et facta bona, manifesta sunt: et quae aliter se habent, abscondi non possunt. | ὡσαύτως καὶ τὰ καλὰ ἔργα πρόδηλά ἐστι, καὶ τὰ ἄλλως ἔχοντα κρυβῆναι οὐ δύνανται. |
