1 Timothy.
|
||
Chapter 2.
|
||
I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks be made for all men,
|
||
for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.
|
||
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
|
||
who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth.
|
||
For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
|
||
who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony at the proper time,
|
||
to 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.
|
||
I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands without anger and doubting.
|
||
In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety, not with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing,
|
||
but with good works, which is appropriate for women professing godliness.
|
||
Let a woman learn in quietness with full submission.
|
||
But I don’t permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.
|
||
For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
|
||
Adam wasn’t deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;
|
||
but she will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and holiness with sobriety.
