The King James Version Bible

1 Timothy 3:4-7

  1. One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;

  2. (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

  3. Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.

  4. Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
