Jubilee2000 - I Timothy - 2

2:1  I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men,

2:2  for kings, and [for] all that are in authority that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and integrity.

2:3  For this [is] good and pleasing in the sight of God our Saviour,

2:4  who desires that all men be saved and come unto the knowledge of the truth.

2:5  For [there is only] one God and likewise [only] one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

2:6  who gave himself in ransom for all, the testimony of which [was confirmed] at the time,

2:7  of which I am ordained a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth in Christ [and] do not lie), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.

2:8  I desire, therefore, that the men in every place, pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and strife.

2:9  In like manner also that the women adorn themselves in an honest manner, with shyness and modesty, not with ostentatious hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing

2:10  but with good works (as becomes women professing godliness).

2:11  Let the woman learn, becoming silent in all subjection.

2:12  For I do not allow a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over a [mature] man, but to be at rest.

2:13  For Adam was formed first, then Eve.

2:14  And Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived in the rebellion;

2:15  notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if she continues in faith and charity and sanctification and modesty.:
