Honor Widows
Do not sharply rebuke an older man, but rather appeal to him as a father, to the younger men as brothers,
Do not sharply rebuke an older man, but rather appeal to him as a father, to the younger men as brothers,
Старого не докоряй, а умоляй, як батька, молодших, як братів,
the older women as mothers, and the younger women as sisters, in all purity.
старих жінок, як матїрок, молодших, як сестер, з усякою чистотою.
but if any widow has children or grandchildren, they must first learn to practice piety in regard to their own family and to make some return to their parents; for this is acceptable in the sight of God.
Коли ж котора вдовиця дїти або внучата має, нехай вчять ся перше свій дім благочестиво спорядити і віддячувати родителям; се бо добре і любо перед Богом.
Now she who is a widow indeed and who has been left alone, has fixed her hope on God and continues in entreaties and prayers night and day.
Тая ж справдї вдовиця, котора одинока, (та) вповає на Бога і пробуває в молитвах і благаннях день і ніч.
But she who gives herself to wanton pleasure is dead even while she lives.
Котора ж роскошує, та жива — вмерла.
Prescribe these things as well, so that they may be above reproach.
І се наказуй, щоб непорочні були.
But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
Коли ж хто про своїх, а найбільш про домашнїх не промишляє, той відцуравсь віри, і гірший од невірного.
A widow is to be put on the list only if she is not less than sixty years old, having been the wife of one man,
Удовицю ж вибирати не меньше лїт шестидесяти, таку щоб була одному мужу жінкою,
having a reputation for good works; and if she has brought up children, if she has shown hospitality to strangers, if she has washed the saints’ feet, if she has assisted those in distress, and if she has devoted herself to every good work.
в дїлах добрих сьвідчена, чи дїтей згодувала, чи людей стороннїх приймала, чи сьвятим ноги вмивала, чи бідолашним помагала, чи до всякого дїла доброго щира була.
But refuse to put younger widows on the list, for when they feel sensual desires in disregard of Christ, they want to get married,
Молодих же вдовиць не приймай; бо, розбуявшись проти Христа, схочуть заміж;
thus incurring condemnation, because they have set aside their previous pledge.
маючи осуд, що першої віри відцурались.
At the same time they also learn to be idle, as they go around from house to house; and not merely idle, but also gossips and busybodies, talking about things not proper to mention.
Ще ж без дїла звикають ходити по домах; не тілько ж без дїла, та й довгоязикі і пронозливі, говорять, чого не годить ся.
Therefore, I want younger widows to get married, bear children, keep house, and give the enemy no occasion for reproach;
Тим хочу, щоб молоді вдовицї йшли заміж, дїтей рожали, домом правили і нїякої причини не давали противному до поговору.
If any woman who is a believer has dependent widows, she must assist them and the church must not be burdened, so that it may assist those who are widows indeed.
Коли який вірний або вірна має вдовицї, нехай їм помагає, і нехай не буде тягару для церкви, щоб правдивим удовицям помагати.
Concerning Elders
The elders who rule well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching.
Которі ж пресвитери пильнують добре, нехай удостоять ся двійної чести, найбільше ж ті, що трудять ся в слові і науцї.
For the Scripture says, “YOU SHALL NOT MUZZLE THE OX WHILE HE IS THRESHING,” and “The laborer is worthy of his wages.”
Глаголе бо писаннє: Вола молотячого не заоброчуй; і: Достоїн робітник нагороди своєї.
Do not receive an accusation against an elder except on the basis of two or three witnesses.
На пресвитера обвинувачення не приймай, хиба при двох або трьох сьвідках.
Those who continue in sin, rebuke in the presence of all, so that the rest also will be fearful of sinning.
Которі ж згрішять, обличай перед усїма, щоб і инші страх мали.
I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of His chosen angels, to maintain these principles without bias, doing nothing in a spirit of partiality.
Заклинаю перед Богом, і Господом Ісус-Христом, і вибраними ангелами, щоб се хоронив без пересуду, нїчого не роблячи по привичцї (пристрастї).
Do not lay hands upon anyone too hastily and thereby share responsibility for the sins of others; keep yourself free from sin.
Рук скоро не клади нї на кого, анї приставай до чужих гріхів; себе чистим держи.
No longer drink water exclusively, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.
Вже не пий води, а потроху вина приймай, ради жолудка твого і частих твоїх недугів.
The sins of some men are quite evident, going before them to judgment; for others, their sins follow after.
В инших людей гріхи явні, попереджують на суд, а за иншими йдуть слїдом.
