ગુજરાતીતિમોથીને પહેલો પત્ર ૫:૧૬
જો વિધવાઓ કોઈ વિશ્વાસી સ્ત્રી પર આધારિત હોય, તો તે તેઓનું પૂરું કરે, અને મંડળી પર તેમનો ભાર નાખે નહિ કે જેથી જે વિધવાઓ ખરેખર નિરાધાર છે તેઓની મદદ મંડળી કરે.
हिन्दी1 तीमुथियुस ५:१६
यदि किसी विश्वासिनी के यहाँ विधवाएँ हों, तो वही उनकी सहायता करे कि कलीसिया पर भार न हो ताकि वह उनकी सहायता कर सके, जो सचमुच में विधवाएँ हैं।

15For already some have turned away after Satan.

16If any man or woman who believes has widows, let them relieve them, and don’t let the assembly be burdened, that it might relieve those who are widows indeed.

17Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.
