1 Timothy 2
1 I Exhort therefore, that first of all supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giuing of thanks be made for all men,
I exhort, then, first of all, there be made supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, for all men—
2 For Kings, and for all that are in authoritie, that we may leade a quiet and a peaceable life, in all godlinesse and honestie.
for kings, and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all piety and gravity,
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Sauiour,
for this [is] right and acceptable before God our Savior,
4 Who will that all men shalbe saued, and come vnto the acknowledging of the trueth.
who wills all men to be saved, and to come to the full knowledge of the truth;
5 For there is one God, and one Mediatour betweene God and man, which is the man Christ Iesus,
for [there is] one God, also one mediator of God and of men—the man Christ Jesus,
6 Who gaue himselfe a ransome for all men, to be that testimonie in due time,
who gave Himself [as] a ransom for all—the testimony in its own times—
7 Whereunto I am ordeined a preacher and an Apostle (I speake the trueth in Christ, and lie not) euen a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and veritie.
in regard to which I was set a preacher and apostle—truth I say in Christ, I do not lie—a teacher of nations, in faith and truth.
8 I will therefore that the men pray, euery where lifting vp pure hands without wrath, or douting.
I intend, therefore, that men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, apart from anger and deliberation;
9 Likewise also the women, that they aray themselues in comely apparell, with shamefastnes and modestie, not with broyded heare, or gold, or pearles, or costly apparell,
also the women in like manner, in orderly apparel, to adorn themselves with modesty and sobriety, not in braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or clothing of great price,
10 But (as becommeth women that professe the feare of God) with good workes.
but—which becomes women professing godly piety—through good works.
11 Let the woman learne in silence with all subiection.
Let a woman learn in quietness in all subjection,
12 I permit not a woman to teache, neither to vsurpe authoritie ouer the man, but to be in silence.
and I do not allow a woman to teach, nor to rule a husband, but to be in quietness,
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eue.
for Adam was formed first, then Eve,
14 And Adam was not deceiued, but the woman was deceiued, and was in the transgression.
and Adam was not deceived, but the woman, having been deceived, came into transgression,
15 Notwithstanding, through bearing of children she shalbe saued if they continue in faith, and loue, and holines with modestie.
and she will be saved through the childbearing, if they remain in faith, and love, and sanctification, with sobriety.
