1 Timothy 5:6 in Context — 1 Timothy 5

4 Pero si alguna viuda tuviere hijos, ó nietos, aprendan primero á gobernar su casa piadosamente, y á recompensar á sus padres: porque esto es lo honesto y agradable delante de Dios.

5 Ahora, la que en verdad es viuda y solitaria, espera en Dios, y es diligente en suplicaciones y oraciones noche y día.

6 Pero la que vive en delicias, viviendo está muerta.

7 Denuncia pues estas cosas, para que sean sin reprensión.

8 Y si alguno no tiene cuidado de los suyos, y mayormente de los de su casa, la fe negó, y es peor que un infiel.
