1 Timothy 5:8

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

But if someone won't take care of their own family — especially the people living in their house — they've basically thrown their faith out the window. That's actually worse than someone who never believed at all.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Not taking care of your family is a bigger faith fail than not believing in the first place.
