1 Timothy 3:8-13 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

8. Servant-leaders likewise must be dignified, not double-speaking, not addicted to much wine, not greedy for dishonest gain.

9. They must keep hold of the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience.

10. Also let them first be tested—then let those who are blameless serve as servant-leaders.

11. Women likewise must be dignified, not backbiting; clear-minded, trustworthy in every respect.

12. Let servant-leaders be husbands of one wife, managing their children and their own households well.

13. For those who have served well as servant-leaders gain for themselves a good standing and great confidence in the faith that is in Messiah Yeshua.
