For if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how can he care for the church of God?
(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
(for how could someone who doesn’t know how to rule his own house take care of God’s assembly?)
(but if a man knoweth not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
