3:8 Qualities of assembly helpers (or deacons/ministers)

8Similarly helpers in the assembly should also be dignified, should only speak the truth, shouldn’t be greedy or addicted to wine, 9and should cling to the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience. 10Once they’ve proven themselves to be without any misconduct, then let them be working in the assembly. 11Their wives, too, should be dignified, should only speak the truth, and should be sober and faithful in everything they do. 12These helpers in the assembly should be husbands of one wife, and should lead their children and their households well. 13Those helpers who serve well will earn a good reputation for themselves and increase in confidence in their faith in Yeshua the messiah.

8Servants likewise should_be dignified, not double-tongued, not addicted to_ much _wine, not greedy, 9holding the mystery of_the faith in a_ clean _conscience.
10And also let_ these _be_being_approved first, thereafter let_them_be_serving, being unindictable.
11˓Their˒_wives likewise should_be dignified, not diabolical, sober, faithful in all things.
12Servants, let_ them _be husbands of_one wife, leading of_^their_children well and of_their own households.
13For/Because the ones having_served well are_procuring a_ good _standing for_themselves, and great confidence in the_faith which in chosen_one/messiah Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa).
