Paul's First Letter to Timothy (WEB)

2:1 I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men: ^2:2for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence. ^2:3For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God, our Savior; ^2:4who desires to have all men to be saved, and come to full knowledge of the truth. ^2:5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, ^2:6who gave himself as a ransom for all; the testimony in its own times; ^2:7to 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. ^2:8I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. ^2:9In 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; ^2:10but (which becomes women professing godliness) through good works. ^2:11Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection. ^2:12But I don't permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness. ^2:13For Adam was first formed, then Eve. ^2:14Adam wasn't deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience; ^2:15but she will be saved through her child-bearing, if they continue in faith, love, and sanctification with sobriety.
