Strong's King James
but if anyone doesn't provide for his own, especially the members of his household, he's denied the believing faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
The F.O.G
[8] Listen carefully: if anyone fails to provide for their relatives, especially their immediate family, they have denied the practical expression of our faith and are acting worse than someone who doesn't even claim to follow the Messiah.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and if any one for his own—and especially for those of the household—doth not provide, the faith he hath denied, and than an unbeliever he is worse.
Young's Literal Translation
