← 1 Timothy 5:10	1 Timothy 5:11 (KJV)	1 Timothy 5:12 →
Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children, if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the saints' feet, if she have relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work.	But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry;	Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.

• G3868 — παραιτέομαι (paraitéomai, par-ahee-teh'-om-ahee): I make excuse, refuse, reject — from παρά and the middle voice of αἰτέω; to beg off, i.e. deprecate, decline, shun:--avoid, (make) excuse, intreat, refuse, reject.
• G5503 — χήρα (chḗra, khay'-rah): a widow — feminine of a presumed derivative apparently from the base of χάσμα through the idea of deficiency; a widow (as lacking a husband), literally or figuratively:--widow.
