1 Timothy, Chapter 2

¹ First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, ² for kings and all who are in^a Or a high positionauthority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and^b Or seriousnessdignity. ³ This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, ⁴ who desires all men to be saved and to come to the^c Or recognitionknowledge of the truth. ⁵ For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, ⁶ who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony^d Or to be givengiven at^e Lit its own timesthe proper time. ⁷ For this I was appointed a^f Or heraldpreacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying) as a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.	1 Eph 6:18 2 Ezr 6:10 Rom 13:1 3 Luk 1:47 Ti1 1:1 Ti1 4:10 4 Eze 18:23 Eze 18:32 Joh 3:17 Ti1 4:10 Tit 2:11 Pe2 3:9 Rom 11:14 Ti2 2:25 Ti2 3:7 Tit 1:1 Heb 10:26 5 Rom 3:30 Rom 10:12 Co1 8:4 Co1 8:6 Gal 3:20 Mat 1:1 Rom 1:3 6 Mat 20:28 Gal 1:4 Co1 1:6 Mar 1:15 Gal 4:4 Ti1 6:15 Tit 1:3 7 Eph 3:8 Ti1 1:11 Ti2 1:11 Co1 9:1 Rom 9:1 Act 9:15
⁸ Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and dissension.	8 Php 1:12 Ti1 5:14 Tit 3:8 Joh 4:21 Co1 1:2 Co2 2:14 Th1 1:8 Psa 63:4 Luk 24:50 Psa 24:4 Jam 4:8
⁹ Likewise, I want women to adorn themselves with proper clothing,^g Lit with modestymodestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly garments, ¹⁰ but rather by means of good works, as is proper for women making a claim to godliness. ¹¹ A woman must quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness. ¹² But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. ¹³ For it was Adam who was first^h Or formedcreated, and then Eve. ¹⁴ And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being deceived,ⁱ Lit has comefell into transgression. ¹⁵ But women will be^j Lit savedpreserved through the bearing of children if they continue in faith and love and sanctity with^k Or discretionself-restraint.	9 Pe1 3:3 11 Co1 14:34 Tit 2:5 12 Co1 14:34 Tit 2:5 13 Gen 2:7 Gen 2:22 Gen 3:16 Co1 11:8 14 Gen 3:6 Gen 3:13 Co2 11:3 15 Ti1 1:14
