1 Timothy 2
1 Now I exhort, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings 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 all who 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 wills all men to be saved, and to come to an acknowledgment 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; --of which the testimony is in its proper season:
Who gave himself a ransom in behalf of all, —the testimony, in its own fit times:
7 for which I was appointed a herald and an Apostle, (I speak the truth, I do not falsify, ) a teacher to the Gentiles in faith and truth.
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 everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and disputings.
I am minded, therefore, that—the men in every place be offering prayer, uplifting hands of lovingkindness, apart from anger and disputings;
9 I like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in decent apparel, with modesty and sobriety, not with plaited hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly raiment:
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 becomes women professing godliness, ) with good works.
But, which becometh women promising godliness, through means of good works.
11 Let a woman learn in silence with all submission:
Let, a woman, in quietness, be learning in all submission;
12 for I do not allow a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over a man, but to be silent;
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 Besides, Adam was not deceived: but the woman, being deceived, was in transgression.
And, Adam, was not deceived, whereas, the woman, having been wholly deceived, hath come to be, in transgression;
15 However, she shall be saved through child-bearing, if they live in faith, and love, 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.
