ISV - I Timothy - 2

2:1  Prayer and Submission to AuthorityFirst of all, then, I urge you to offer petitions, prayers, intercessions, and expressions of thanks for all people,

2:2  for kings, and for everyone who has authority, so that we might lead a quiet and peaceful life with all godliness and dignity.Or seriousness

2:3  This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

2:4  who wants all people to be saved and to come to a full knowledge of the truth.

2:5  There is one God. There is also one mediator between God and human beings—a human, Christ Jesus.

2:6  He gave himself as a ransom for all, a fact that was acknowledged at the right time.

2:7  For this reason I was appointed to be a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth. (I am telling you the truth.Other mss. read the truth in Christ I am not lying.)

2:8  Therefore, I want the men to offer prayers in every place, lifting up holy hands without being angry or argumentative.

2:9  Women, for their part, should display their beauty by dressing modestly and decently in appropriate clothes, not by braiding their hair or by wearing gold, pearls, or expensive clothes,

2:10  but through good works. This is proper for women who claim to have reverence for God.

2:11  A woman must learn quietly with full submission.

2:12  Moreover, I do not allow a woman to teach or to have authority over a man. Instead, she is to be quiet.

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

2:14  And it was not Adam who was deceived. It was the woman who was deceived and became a lawbreaker.

2:15  However, womenLit. she will be saved by having children,Or saved through the birth of the Child if they continue to have faith, love, and holiness, along with good judgment.Or modesty
