And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.
And let them also be tried and investigated and proved first; then, if they turn out to be above reproach, let them serve [as deacons].
And let these also first be proved; then let them serve as deacons, if they be blameless.
They should also be tested and then serve if they are without fault.
And these things should be proven first, and then they may minister, being without offense.
And let these also first be proved: and so let them minister, having no crime.
