1 Timothy 5:7
“And these things give in charge, that they may be blameless.”
Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, trusteth in God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.

Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man,
