1 Timothy 5:4-8 but if any widow have children or descendants, let them learn first to be pious as regards their own house, and to render a return on their side to their parents; for this is acceptable in the sight of God.

Darby⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ but if any widow have children or descendants, let them learn first to be pious as regards their own house, and to render a return on their side to [their] parents; for this is acceptable in the sight of God. ⁵ Now she who [is] a widow indeed, and is left alone, has put [her] hope in God, and continues in supplications and prayers night and day. ⁶ But she that lives in habits of self-indulgence is dead [while] living. ⁷ And these things enjoin, that they may be irreproachable. ⁸ But if any one does not provide for his own, and specially for those of [his] house, he has denied the faith, and is worse than the unbeliever.
