1 Timothy 3

3 This word, is trustworthy: “If someone aspires to overseership, he desires a good work.” 2 Therefore, it is necessary for the overseer to be irreproachable, a husband of one wife, temperate, self-controlled, proper, hospitable, able to teach, 3 not addicted to wine, not a brawler,[fn] but gentle, peaceable, not money-loving, 4 leading his own household well, having children in submission with all dignity, 5 (but if someone does not know, how to lead his own household, how will he take care of the church of God?), 6 not a new convert, so that he may not fall, being puffed up, into the judgment of the devil. 7 But it is also necessary to have a good testimony from the ones outside, so that he may not fall into reproach and a trap of the devil.

8 Likewise deacons, must be dignified, not double-talkers, not indulging in much wine, not greedy, 9 having the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience. 10 But let them also be tested first; then let them serve, being blameless.

11 Likewise women, must be dignified, not slanderers, temperate, trustworthy in everything.

12 Let deacons be husbands of one wife, leading children and their own households well. 13 For the ones having served well acquire for themselves good standing and much confidence in the faith, that is in Christ Jesus.

14 I am writing these things to you—hoping to come to you in quickness, 15 but if I delay—so that you may know how it is necessary to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, a pillar and support of the truth. 16 And admittedly great is the mystery of godliness:

“Who was revealed in flesh,[fn]

was justified in the Spirit,

was seen by angels,

was proclaimed among the nations,

was believed in the world,

was taken up in glory.”

Here some manuscripts add not greedy.

Instead of Who, some manuscripts read God.
