ગુજરાતીતિમોથીને પહેલો પત્ર ૫:૧૯
બે કે ત્રણ સાક્ષીઓ વગર વડીલ પરનો આરોપ સ્વીકારીશ નહિ.
हिन्दी1 तीमुथियुस ५:१९
कोई दोष किसी प्राचीन पर लगाया जाए तो बिना दो या तीन गवाहों के उसको स्वीकार न करना। (व्यव. 17:6, व्यव. 19:15)

In context

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

18For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the ox when it treads out the grain.” And, “The laborer is worthy of his wages.”

19Don’t receive an accusation against an elder except at the word of two or three witnesses.

20Those who sin, reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in fear.

21I command you in the sight of God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the chosen angels, that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.
