The Bible

1 Timothy Chapter 2

¹So I exhort, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be made for all men: ²for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.

³For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, ⁴who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth.

⁵For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man AnointedOne Jesus, ⁶who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony in its own times, ⁷to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth in the AnointedOne, not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

⁸So I desire that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands without anger and doubting.

⁹In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety, not just with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing, ¹⁰but with good actions, which is appropriate for women professing godliness.

¹¹Let a woman learn in quietness with full submission.

¹²But I don't permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.

¹³For Adam was formed first, then Eve.

¹⁴Adam wasn't deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience; ¹⁵but she will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and sanctification with sobriety.
