- 1I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men:
- 2for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.
- 3For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;
- 4who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth.
- 5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
- 6who gave himself as a ransom for all; the testimony in its own times;
- 7to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth in Christ, not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
- 8I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands without anger and doubting.
- 9In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety; not just with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing;
- 10but (which becomes women professing godliness) with good works.
- 11Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.
- 12But I don’t permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.
- 13For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
- 14Adam wasn’t deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;
- 15but she will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and sanctification with sobriety.
