1 Timothy 5:13

13 At the same time they also learn to be idle, as they go around from house to house; and not merely idle, but also 1gossips and 2busybodies, talking about 3things not proper to mention.

1 Timothy 5:13 In-Context

11 But refuse to put younger widows on the list, for when they feel sensual desires in disregard of Christ, they want to get married,
12 thus incurring condemnation, because they have set aside their previous pledge.
13 At the same time they also learn to be idle, as they go around from house to house; and not merely idle, but also gossips and busybodies, talking about things not proper to mention.
14 Therefore, I want younger widows to get married, bear children, keep house, and give the enemy no occasion for reproach;
15 for some have already turned aside to follow Satan.
