1 Timothy 5:11-15
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 5
11
But refuse
to register
younger widows, for when they feel physical desires alienating them from Christ, they want to get married,
12
thereby
incurring condemnation, because they have ignored their previous pledge.
13
At the same time they also learn
to be
idle, as they go around from house to house; and not merely idle, but also
they become
gossips and busybodies, talking about things not proper
to mention.
14
Therefore, I want younger
widows
to get married, have children, manage their households,
and
give the enemy no opportunity for reproach;
15
for some have already turned away to follow Satan.
King James Version
Chapter 5
11
But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry;
12
Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.
13
And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.
14
I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.
15
For some are already turned aside after Satan.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 5
11
But refuse to enroll younger widows, for when they are drawn away from Christ by desire, they want to marry
12
and will therefore receive condemnation because they have renounced their original pledge.
13
At the same time, they also learn to be idle, going from house to house; they are not only idle, but are also gossips and busybodies, saying things they shouldn’t say.
14
Therefore, I want younger women to marry, have children, manage their households, and give the adversary no opportunity to accuse us.
15
For some have already turned away to follow Satan.
New Living Translation
Chapter 5
11
The younger widows should not be on the list, because their physical desires will overpower their devotion to Christ and they will want to remarry.
12
Then they would be guilty of breaking their previous pledge.
13
And if they are on the list, they will learn to be lazy and will spend their time gossiping from house to house, meddling in other people’s business and talking about things they shouldn’t.
14
So I advise these younger widows to marry again, have children, and take care of their own homes. Then the enemy will not be able to say anything against them.
15
For I am afraid that some of them have already gone astray and now follow Satan.
English Standard Version
Chapter 5
11
But refuse to enroll younger widows, for when their passions draw them away from Christ, they desire to marry
12
and so incur condemnation for having abandoned their former faith.
13
Besides that, they learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not.
14
So I would have younger widows marry, bear children, manage their households, and give the adversary no occasion for slander.
15
For some have already strayed after Satan.
New International Version
Chapter 5
11
As for younger widows, do not put them on such a list. For when their sensual desires overcome their dedication to Christ, they want to marry.
12
Thus they bring judgment on themselves, because they have broken their first pledge.
13
Besides, they get into the habit of being idle and going about from house to house. And not only do they become idlers, but also busybodies who talk nonsense, saying things they ought not to.
14
So I counsel younger widows to marry, to have children, to manage their homes and to give the enemy no opportunity for slander.
15
Some have in fact already turned away to follow Satan.
New King James Version
Chapter 5
11
But refuse
the
younger widows; for when they have begun to grow wanton against Christ, they desire to marry,
12
having condemnation because they have cast off their first faith.
13
And besides they learn
to be
idle, wandering about from house to house, and not only idle but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not.
14
Therefore I desire that
the
younger
widows
marry, bear children, manage the house, give no opportunity to the adversary to speak reproachfully.
15
For some have already turned aside after Satan.
