6. Not a new convert, lest he become puffed up with pride and fall into the judgment of the devil.
7. And he should even have a good witness from those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
8. Likewise attendants are to be reverent, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy for filthy gain,

10. And let these also be proved first, then let them serve, if they are unreprovable.
11. Wives in the same way: reverent, not false accusers, sober, trustworthy in every way.
