The First Epistle of Paul the Apostle to Timothy

Return to Index

Chapter 2

1

I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men:

2

for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.

3

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God, our Savior;

4

who desires to have all men to be saved, and come to full knowledge of the truth.

5

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

6

who gave himself as a ransom for all; the testimony in its own times;

7

to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth in Christ, not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

8

I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

9

In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety; not just with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly clothing;

10

but (which becomes women professing godliness) through good works.

11

Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.

12

But I don't permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.

13

For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

14

Adam wasn't deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;

15

but she will be saved through her child-bearing, if they continue in faith, love, and sanctification with sobriety.

1st Timothy 3
