1 Timothy 3:10-13 And let these also first be proved; then let them serve as deacons, being without reproach.

ABU⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁰ And let these also first be proved; then let them serve as deacons, being without reproach. ¹¹ [Their] wives in like manner must be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things. ¹² Let the deacons be husbands of one wife, presiding well over their children and their own houses. ¹³ For they that have served well as deacons obtain for themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
