World English Bible (WEB)
But{G1161} the younger{G3501} widows{G5503} refuse{G3868}{(G5737)}: for{G1063} when{G3752} they have begun to wax wanton against{G2691}{(G5661)} Christ{G5547}, they will{G2309}{(G5719)} marry{G1060}{(G5721)};
Strong's King James
(11) But reject younger widows for when they are governed by strong sensual desires, away from The Mashiach they want to get married,

[11] Be cautious about putting younger widows on this support list. When their natural desires for marriage grow stronger than their dedication to the Messiah, they may turn away from their initial commitment.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and younger widows be refusing, for when they may revel against the Christ, they wish to marry,
