Qualifications of Overseers
1 This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a1 bishop, he desires a good work.
2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach;
3 not1 given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not3 covetous;
4 one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence
