6But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.
7And these things give in charge, that they may be blameless.
— 1 Timothy 5:8 —
9Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man,
10Well 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.
