| | 2:1 - I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all men; |
| | 2:2 - for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and gravity. |
| | 2:3 - This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; |
| | 2:4 - who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth. |
| | 2:5 - For there is one God, one mediator also between God and men, `himself' man, Christ Jesus, |
| | 2:6 - who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony `to be borne' in its own times; |
| | 2:7 - whereunto I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth, I lie not), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth. |
| | 2:8 - I desire therefore that the men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and disputing. |
| | 2:9 - In like manner, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefastness and sobriety; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly raiment; |
| | 2:10 - but (which becometh women professing godliness) through good works. |
| | 2:11 - Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection. |
| | 2:12 - But I permit not a woman to teach, nor to have dominion over a man, but to be in quietness. |
| | 2:13 - For Adam was first formed, then Eve; |
| | 2:14 - and Adam was not beguiled, but the woman being beguiled hath fallen into transgression: |
| | 2:15 - but she shall be saved through her child-bearing, if they continue in faith and love and sanctification with sobriety. |
