1 Timothy · Πρὸς Τιμόθεον Αʹ

1 Timothy 3:6

Μὴ νεόφυτον, ἵνα μὴ τυφωθεὶς εἰς κρίμα ἐμπέσῃ τοῦ διαβόλου.
Mē neophyton, ina mē typhōtheis eis krima empesē toy diaboloy.
King James Version (KJV)

Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.

Modern English

He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil.
