be_v help_n to_o they_o in_o their_o family_n and_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o elder_a woman_n be_v to_o be_v teacher_n of_o good_a thing_n and_o instruct_v and_o teach_v the_o young_a to_o be_v

in_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o blaspheme_v here_o we_o age_a woman_n in_o the_o truth_n have_v a_o gift_n to_o be_v exercise_v in_o 〈◊〉_d and_o such_o a_o care_n lie_v upon_o we_o that_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o scandalize_v a●●_n we_o have_v a_o concern_v as_o in_o tit._n 2._o relate_v to_o marriage_n both_o before_o and_o after_o they_o be_v marry_v and_o such_o elderly_a woman_n in_o the_o truth_n be_v to_o be_v entreat_v as_o mother_n and_o so_o not_o to_o be_v rail_v upon_o and_o the_o young_a as_o sister_n with_o all_o purity_n and_o widow_n that_o be_v widow_n indeed_o be_v to_o be_v honour_v and_o if_o they_o have_v child_n or_o nephew_n let_v they_o learn_v first_o to_o show_v piety_n or_o kindness_n at_o

their_o child_n and_o nephew_n to_o practice_n and_o so_o we_o may_v see_v such_o holy_a woman_n that_o be_v take_v into_o the_o number_n and_o society_n in_o that_o day_n be_v to_o be_v well_o

that_o be_v take_v into_o the_o number_n for_o their_o good_a work_n and_o service_n in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o be_v record_v for_o their_o work_n and_o service_n to_o the_o lord_n now_o here_o be_v a_o diligent_a practice_n and_o exercise_n in_o the_o power_n and_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o to_o be_v diligent_a in_o every_o good_a work_n and_o service_n to_o relieve_v the_o

and_o be_v to_o improve_v their_o talent_n and_o measure_n of_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o not_o to_o grieve_v nor_o quench_v the_o holy_a spirit_n nor_o walk_v despiteful_o against_o the_o
