1 Timothy 5:23

← 1 Timothy 5:22	1 Timothy 5:23 (KJV)	1 Timothy 5:24 →
Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.	Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.	Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some [men] they follow after.
