Here is a trustworthy saying: If anyone sets his heart on being an
overseer, he desires a noble task. 2 Now the overseer must be above reproach, the
husband of but one wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able
to teach, 3 not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not
a lover of money. 4 He must manage his own family well and see that his children
obey him with proper respect. 5 (If anyone does not know how to manage his own
family, how can he take care of God's church?) 6 He must not be a recent convert,
or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil. 7 He
must also have a good reputation with outsiders, so that he will not fall into disgrace
and into the devil's trap. |

Grave, not double tongue, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre, Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience, And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless. Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things
Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. |

8 Deacons, likewise, are to be men worthy of respect, sincere, not indulging
in much wine, and not pursuing dishonest gain. 9 They must keep hold of the deep
truths of the faith with a clear conscience. 10 They must first be tested; and then
if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons. 11 In the same way,
their wives are to be women worthy of respect, not malicious talkers but temperate
and trustworthy in everything. 12 A deacon must be the husband of but one wife
and must manage his children and his household well. 13 Those who have served
well gain an excellent standing and great assurance in their faith in Christ Jesus. |

Berean Study Bible
1In those days when the disciples were increasing in number, the Grecian Jews among them began to grumble against the Hebraic Jewsa because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food.
2So the Twelve summoned all the disciples and said, “It is unacceptable for us to neglect the word of God in order to wait on tables. 3Therefore, brothers, select from among you seven men confirmed to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will appoint this responsibility to them 4and will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
5This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, as well as Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism.b 6They presented these seven to the apostles,c who prayed and laid their hands on them.
7So the word of God continued to spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem grew rapidly, and a great number of priests became obedient to the faith. |
