Notes on this text (3)
- eBible.org's edition in the ekavian pronunciation (e.g. свет, грех); Karadžić and Daničić wrote in ijekavian (свијет, гријех).
- No deuterocanonical books.
- Chapter divisions follow the Hebrew Bible in Job 39–41, Ezekiel 20–21, Hosea 11–12 and Jonah 1–2 (verse numbers there differ from English Bibles).
1 Старца не карај, него му говори као оцу; момцима као браћи;
1 Don’t rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brothers;
2 старицама као матерама; младима као сестрама, са сваком чистотом.
2 the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity.
3 Удовице поштуј, које су праве удовице.
3 Honor widows who are widows indeed.
4 Ако ли која удовица има децу или унучад, да се уче најпре свој дом поштовати, и зајам враћати родитељима; јер је ово угодно пред Богом.
4 But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety toward their own family and to repay their parents, for this is acceptable in the sight of God.
5 А права удовица и усамљена узда се у Бога, и живи у молитвама и у мољењу дан и ноћ.
5 Now she who is a widow indeed and desolate, has her hope set on God and continues in petitions and prayers night and day.
6 А која живи у сладостима, жива је умрла.
6 But she who gives herself to pleasure is dead while she lives.
7 И ово заповедај, да буду без мане.
7 Also command these things, that they may be without reproach.
8 Ако ли ко за своје, а особито за домаће, не промишља, одрекао се вере, и гори је од незнабошца.
8 But if anyone doesn’t provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
9 А удовица да се не прима млађа од шездесет година, и која је била једном мужу жена;
9 Let no one be enrolled as a widow under sixty years old, having been the wife of one man,
10 и која има сведочанство у добрим делима, ако је децу одгајила, ако је гостољубива била, ако је светима ноге прала, ако је невољнима помагала, ако је ишла за сваким добрим делом.
10 being approved by good works, if she has brought up children, if she has been hospitable to strangers, if she has washed the saints’ feet, if she has relieved the afflicted, and if she has diligently followed every good work.
11 А младих удовица прођи се; јер кад побесне против Христа, хоће да се удају,
11 But refuse younger widows, for when they have grown wanton against Christ, they desire to marry,
12 и имају грех што прву веру одбацише.
12 having condemnation, because they have rejected their first pledge.
13 А к томе и беспослене уче се скитати по кућама, не само пак беспослене, него и језичне и свезнале, па говоре шта не треба.
13 Besides, they also learn to be idle, going about from house to house. Not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not.
14 Хоћу, дакле, да се младе удовице удају, децу рађају, кућу куће, а никакав узрок да не дају противнику за хуљење.
14 I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule the household, and give no occasion to the adversary for insulting.
15 Јер се, ево, неке окренуше за сотоном.
15 For already some have turned away after Satan.
16 Ако који верни или верна има удовице, нека се стара за њих, и да не досађују цркви да оне које су праве удовице може задовољити.
16 If any man or woman who believes has widows, let them relieve them, and don’t let the assembly be burdened, that it might relieve those who are widows indeed.
17 А свештеницима који се добро старају да се даје двогуба част, а особито онима који се труде у речи и у науци.
17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.
18 Јер писмо говори: Волу који врше не завезуј уста, и: Радин је достојан своје плате.
18 For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the ox when it treads out the grain.” And, “The laborer is worthy of his wages.”
19 На свештеника не примај тужбе, осим кад имају два или три сведока.
19 Don’t receive an accusation against an elder except at the word of two or three witnesses.
20 А који греше покарај их пред свима, да и други имају страх.
20 Those who sin, reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in fear.
21 Заклињем те пред Богом и Господом Исусом Христом и изабраним Његовим анђелима да ово држиш без лицемерја, не чинећи ништа по хатеру.
21 I command you in the sight of God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the chosen angels, that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.
22 Руку одмах не мећи ни на кога, нити пристај у туђе грехе. Држи себе чиста.
22 Lay hands hastily on no one. Don’t be a participant in other people’s sins. Keep yourself pure.
23 Више не пиј воде, него пиј по мало вина, желуца ради свог и честих својих болести.
23 Be no longer a drinker of water only, but use a little wine for your stomach’s sake and your frequent infirmities.
24 А неких су људи греси познати који напред воде на суд, а неких иду за њима.
24 Some men’s sins are evident, preceding them to judgment, and some also follow later.
25 Тако су и добра дела позната, и која су другачија не могу се сакрити.
25 In the same way also there are good works that are obvious, and those that are otherwise can’t be hidden.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Many consider that their own virtue is sufficient for their salvation, and if they duly regulate their own life, that nothing further is wanting to save them.

For she had "been the wife of one man," had requited her parents, had guided her house piously, was "well-reported of for good works," had "brought up children," as often travailing in birth of them as she saw them swerving from Thee.

Hear even Paul pronouncing this widowhood blessed, and saying, "Now she that is a widow indeed and desolate, trusteth in the Lord." Because such an one will appear more approved, evincing as she doth greater patience.

Despise not therefore them that eat, and because of the weakness of their bodies partake of food: nor yet blame these who use a little wine for their stomach's sake and their often infirmities: and neither condemn the men as sinners, nor abhor the flesh as strange food; for the Apostle knows some of this sort, when he says: …

The apostle, for instance, in his charge to Timothy, associates the angels with them in the words, "I charge thee before God and the Lord Jesus Christ and the elect angels." We are not for alienating the angels from the rest of creation, and yet, it is argued, we do not allow of their being reckoned with the Father and …
