1 Timothy 5:18-20

New Century Version

¹⁸ because the Scripture says: “When an ox is working in the grain, do not cover its mouth to keep it from eating,”^[a] and “A worker should be given his pay.”^[b]

¹⁹ Do not listen to someone who accuses an elder, without two or three witnesses. ²⁰ Tell those who continue sinning that they are wrong. Do this in front of the whole church so that the others will have a warning.
