# 1 Timothy 2
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people,
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior,
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time.
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. For this I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling;
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire,
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works.
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness.
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
12. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
13. For Adam was formed first, then Eve;
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
14. and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
15. Yet she will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control.
(ESV)
