1 An aged person thou mayest not rebuke, but be entreating as a father; younger persons as brethren;
2 aged women as mothers, younger ones as sisters -- in all purity;
3 honour widows who are really widows;
4 and if any widow have children or grandchildren, let them learn first to their own house to show piety, and to give back a recompense to the parents, for this is right and acceptable before God.
5 And she who is really a widow and desolate, hath hoped upon God, and doth remain in the supplications and in the prayers night and day,
6 and she who is given to luxury, living -- hath died;
7 and these things charge, that they may be blameless;
