1 Timotius 3:4

3:4 He must manage his own household well and keep his children in control without losing his dignity. ¹ 

1 Timotius 3:9

3:9 holding to the mystery of the faith ²  with a clear conscience.

1 Timotius 5:6

5:6 But the one who lives for pleasure is dead even ³  while she lives.

[3:4]  ¹ tn Grk “having children in submission with all dignity.” The last phrase, “keep his children in control without losing his dignity,” may refer to the children rather than the parent: “having children who are obedient and respectful.”

[3:9]  ² sn The mystery of the faith is a reference to the revealed truths of the Christian faith.

[5:6]  ³ tn For “is dead even” the Greek text reads “has died.”
