[3] Not given to wine, no striker, not but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; [4] One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; [5] (For not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) [6] Not a novice, being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. [7] Moreover must have a good report of them which are without; he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil. [8] Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre; [9] Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. [10] And these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, found blameless. [11] Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things. [12] the deacons the husbands wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. [13] For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
