1 Timothy 5:1
Do not rebuke an older man, but appeal to him as to a father. Treat younger men as brothers,
Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren;
Don’t rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brothers;
Rebuke not an elder, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brethren:
