Wycliffe - I Timothy - 2

2:1  Therfor Y biseche first of alle thingis, that bisechingis, preieris, axyngis, doyngis of thankyngis, ben maad for alle men,

2:2  for kingis and alle that ben set in hiynesse, that we leden a quyet and a pesible lijf, in al pite and chastite.

2:3  For this thing is good and acceptid bifor God,

2:4  oure sauyour, that wole that alle men ben maad saaf, and that thei come to the knowyng of treuthe.

2:5  For o God and a mediatour is of God and of men, a man Crist Jhesus,

2:6  that yaf him silf redempcioun for alle men. Whos witnessing is confermyd in his tymes;

2:7  in which Y am set a prechour and an apostle. For Y seye treuthe, and Y lie not, that am a techere of hethene men in feith and in treuthe.

2:8  Therfor Y wole, that men preye in al place, liftinge vp clene hondis with outen wraththe and strijf.

2:9  Also wymmen in couenable abite, with schamefastnesse and sobrenesse araiynge hem silf, not in writhun heeris, ethir in gold, ethir peerlis, ethir preciouse cloth; but that that bicometh wymmen,

2:10  biheetinge pite bi good werkis.

2:11  A womman lerne in silence, with al subieccioun.

2:12  But Y suffre not a womman to teche, nether to haue lordschip on the hosebonde, but to be in silence.

2:13  For Adam was first formed, aftirward Eue;

2:14  and Adam was not disseyued, but the womman was disseyued, in breking of the lawe.

2:15  But sche schal be sauyd bi generacioun of children, if sche dwellith perfitli in feith, and loue, and hoolynesse, with sobrenesse.
