8 G5615 Likewise G1249 must the deacons G4586 be grave G3361 , not G1351 doubletongued G3361 , not G4337 given [G5723] G4183 to much G3631 wine G3361 , not G146 greedy of filthy lucre;

9 G2192 Holding [G5723] G3466 the mystery G4102 of the faith G1722 in G2513 a pure G4893 conscience.

10 G1161 And G1381 let G3778 these G2532 also G4412 first G1381 be proved [G5744] G1534 ; then G1247 let them use the office of a deacon [G5720] G5607 , being [G5752] G410 found blameless.

11 G5615 Even so G1135 must their wives G4586 be grave G3361 , not G1228 slanderers G3524 , sober G4103 , faithful G1722 in G3956 all things.

12 G2077 Let G1249 the deacons G2077 be [G5749] G435 the husbands G3391 of one G1135 wife G4291 , ruling [G5734] G5043 their children G2532 and G2398 their own G3624 houses G2573 well.

13 G1063 For G1247 they that have used the office of a deacon [G5660] G2573 well G4046 purchase [G5731] G1438 to themselves G2570 a good G898 degree G2532 , and G4183 great G3954 boldness G1722 in G4102 the faith G3588 which G1722 is in G5547 Christ G2424 Jesus.

14 G5023 These things G1125 write I [G5719] G4671 unto thee G1679 , hoping [G5723] G2064 to come [G5629] G4314 unto G4571 thee G5032 shortly:

15 G1161 But G1437 if G1019 I tarry long [G5725] G2443 , that G1492 thou mayest know [G5762] G4459 how G1163 thou oughtest [G5748] G390 to behave thyself [G5745] G1722 in G3624 the house G2316 of God G3748 , which G2076 is [G5748] G1577 the church G2198 of the living [G5723] G2316 God G4769 , the pillar G2532 and G1477 ground G225 of the truth.
