Deuteronomy 5 (English Standard Version)

13 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,

On it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter or your male servant or your female servant, or your ox or your donkey or any of your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates, that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you.

1 Timothy 5:1-2

Deuteronomy 5 (Free Bible Version)

13 You have six days to work and earn your living,
14 but the seventh day is the Sabbath to honor the Lord your God. On this day you must not do any work—not you, not your son or daughter, not your male slave or female slave or your ox or donkey or any of your livestock, and not the foreigner who is staying with you, so that your male slave and females slave can have the same rest as you.
15 Remember that you were once slaves in Egypt, and that the Lord your God led you out from there with his great power and incredible strength. This is why the Lord your God has ordered you to keep the Sabbath day.
16 Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God has commanded you to do, so that you may live a long time and do well in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
17 You must not kill people.
18 You must not commit adultery.
19 You must not steal.

2 older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, with the highest standards of decency.
3 Help widows who don't have a family.
4 For the Christian responsibility of a widow's children or grandchildren is to do their duty for their own family, and repay their parents by helping them out. This is what pleases God.
5 Now a real widow, having no family, alone and without support, puts her hope in God and prays for help night and day.
