1 Timothy 5:6-8
New English Translation
6 But the one who lives for pleasure is dead even[a] while she lives. 7 Reinforce[b] these commands,[c] so that they will be beyond reproach. 8 But if someone does not provide for his own,[d] especially his own family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
