1 Timothy Chapter 2
|
||
1 I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks be made for all men,
|
||
2 for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.
|
||
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
|
||
4 who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth.
|
||
5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
|
||
6 who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony at the proper time,
|
||
7 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.
|
||
8 I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands without anger and doubting.
|
||
9 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,
|
||
10 but with good works, which is appropriate for women professing godliness.
|
||
11 Let a woman learn in quietness with full submission.
|
||
12 But I don’t permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.
|
||
13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
|
||
14 Adam wasn’t deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;
|
||
15 but she will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and holiness with sobriety. |
