1 Timothy 3:2

& An overseer, then, must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, prudent, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,

& not addicted to wine or pugnacious, but gentle, peaceable, free from the love of money.

& {He must be} one who manages his own household well, keeping his children under control with all dignity

& (but if a man does not know how to manage his own household, how will he take care of the church of God?),

& {and} not a new convert, so that he will not become conceited and fall into the condemnation incurred by the devil.

& And he must have a good reputation with those outside {the church,} so that he will not fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
