1 Timothy 2
1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving 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 authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
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 Saviour;
This, is comely and acceptable before our Saviour God,
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
Who willeth, all men, to be saved, and, unto a personal knowledge of truth, to come;
5 For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
For there is, one, God, one, mediator also, between God and men, —a man—Christ Jesus:
6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
Who gave himself a ransom in behalf of all, —the testimony, in its own fit times:
7 Where unto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, [and] lie not; ) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
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 men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
I am minded, therefore, that—the men in every place be offering prayer, uplifting hands of lovingkindness, apart from anger and disputings;
9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
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 (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
But, which becometh women promising godliness, through means of good works.
11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
Let, a woman, in quietness, be learning in all submission;
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over 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 Eve.
For, Adam, first was formed, then Eve,
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
And, Adam, was not deceived, whereas, the woman, having been wholly deceived, hath come to be, in transgression;
15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
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.
