1 Timothy 5:12
Honoring True Widows
11But refuse to enroll younger widows. For when their passions draw them away from Christ, they will want to marry,12and thus will incur judgment because they are setting aside their first faith.13At the same time they will also learn to be idle, going from house to house and being not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies, discussing things they should not mention.
