˓their˒_wives
Here, the word translated women could refer to: (1) female deacons. Alternate translation: [women who are deacons] (2) the wives of deacons. Alternate translation: [their wives]
σεμνάς
dignified
Alternate translation: [must be worthy of respect]
3:11 their wives (or the women deacons): The Greek word can be translated women or wives. In favor of their wives, 3:8-13 is a discussion of male deacons; switching to “women deacons” would disrupt the flow of thought. However, there might have been women deacons in the early church (see Rom 16:1). In that case, this verse might parallel 1 Tim 3:8.

OET (OET-RV) Their wives, too, should be dignified, should only speak the truth, and should be sober and faithful in everything they do.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
