< 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, therefore, first of all, that there be made—supplications, prayers, intercessions, thankgivings, in behalf of 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.
In behalf of kings, and all them who are, in eminent station; in order that, an undisturbed, and quiet life, we may lead, in all godliness and gravity:
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Sauiour,
This, is comely and acceptable before our Saviour God,
4 Who will that all men shalbe saued, and come vnto the acknowledging of the trueth.
Who willeth, all men, to be saved, and, unto a personal knowledge of truth, to come;
5 For there is one God, and one Mediatour betweene God and man, which is the man Christ Iesus,
For there is, one, God, one, mediator also, between God and men, —a man—Christ Jesus:
6 Who gaue himselfe a ransome for all men, to be that testimonie in due time,
Who gave himself a ransom in behalf of all, —the testimony, in its own fit 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.
Unto which, I, have been appointed proclaimer and apostle—Truth I speak, I utter no falsehood—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 am minded, therefore, that—the men in every place be offering prayer, uplifting hands of lovingkindness, apart from anger and disputings;
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,
In the same way, that, the women, in seemly attire, with modesty and sober-mindedness, be adorning themselves, —not with plaitings and ornamentation of gold, or with pearls, or with costly apparel, —
10 But (as becommeth women that professe the feare of God) with good workes.
But, which becometh women promising godliness, through means of good works.
11 Let the woman learne in silence with all subiection.
Let, a woman, in quietness, be learning in all submission;
12 I permit not a woman to teache, neither to vsurpe authoritie ouer the man, but to be in silence.
But, teaching—unto a woman, I do not permit, nor yet to have authority over a man, —but to be in quietness;
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eue.
For, Adam, first was formed, then Eve,
14 And Adam was not deceiued, but the woman was deceiued, and was in the transgression.
And, Adam, was not deceived, whereas, the woman, having been wholly deceived, hath come to be, in transgression;
15 Notwithstanding, through bearing of children she shalbe saued if they continue in faith, and loue, and holines with modestie.
She shall be saved, however, through means of the child-bearing, —if they abide in faith, and love, and holiness, with sobermindedness. Faithful, the saying.
