I Timothy 5:17–25

Let the priests that rule well be esteemed worthy of double honour: especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. 18For the scripture saith: Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn: and, The labourer is worthy of his reward. 19Against a priest receive not an accusation, but under two or three witnesses. 20Them that sin reprove before all that the rest also may have fear. 21I charge thee, before God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by declining to either side. 22Impose not hands lightly upon any man, neither be partaker of other men's sins. Keep thyself chaste. 23Do not still drink water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thy frequent infirmities. 24Some men's sins are manifest, going before to judgment: and some men they follow after. 25In like manner also good deeds are manifest: and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.
