1 Tim 2:1 |
First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, |
|
 |
1 Tim 2:2 |
for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:3 |
This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, |
|
|
1 Tim 2:4 |
who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:5 |
For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, |
|
|
1 Tim 2:6 |
who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony given at the proper time. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:7 |
For this I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying) as a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:8 |
Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and dissension. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:9 |
Likewise, I want women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly garments, |
|
|
1 Tim 2:10 |
but rather by means of good works, as is proper for women making a claim to godliness. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:11 |
A woman must quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:12 |
But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:13 |
For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:14 |
And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression. |
|
|
1 Tim 2:15 |
But women will be preserved through the bearing of children if they continue in faith and love and sanctity with self-restraint. |
