17Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.
18For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn. And, The laborer is worthy of his hire.
19Against an elder receive not an accusation, except at [the mouth of] two or three witnesses.
20Them that sin reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in fear.
21I charge [thee] in the sight of God, and Christ Jesus, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.
22Lay hands hastily on no man, neither be partaker of other men`s sins: keep thyself pure.
23Be no longer a drinker of water, but use a little wine for thy stomach`s sake and thine often infirmities.
