1 Timothy 5:9-12

9Let a widow be enrolled if she is not less than sixty years of age, having been athe wife of one husband,
Or a woman of one man
10and having a reputation for good works: if she has brought up children, has cshown hospitality, dhas washed the feet of the saints, has ecared for the afflicted, and has fdevoted herself to every good work. 11But refuse to enroll younger widows, for when gtheir passions draw them away from Christ, they desire to marry 12and so incur condemnation for having abandoned their former faith.
