1 Timothy

Chapters: 1 2 3 4 5 6

2:1
 I urge then, first of all that petitions, prayers, intercessions and thanksgiving should be offered for everyone,

2:2
 for kings and others in authority, so that we may be able to live peaceful and quiet lives with all devotion and propriety.

2:3
 To do this is right, and acceptable to God our Saviour:

2:4
 he wants everyone to be saved and reach full knowledge of the truth.

2:5
 For there is only one God, and there is only one mediator between God and humanity, himself a human being, Christ Jesus,

2:6
 who offered himself as a ransom for all. This was the witness given at the appointed time,

2:7
 of which I was appointed herald and apostle and -- I am telling the truth and no lie -- a teacher of the gentiles in faith and truth.

2:8
 In every place, then, I want the men to lift their hands up reverently in prayer, with no anger or argument.

2:9
 Similarly, women are to wear suitable clothes and to be dressed quietly and modestly, without braided hair or gold and jewellery or expensive clothes;

2:10
 their adornment is to do the good works that are proper for women who claim to be religious.

2:11
 During instruction, a woman should be quiet and respectful.

2:12
 I give no permission for a woman to teach or to have authority over a man. A woman ought to be quiet,

2:13
 because Adam was formed first and Eve afterwards,

2:14
 and it was not Adam who was led astray but the woman who was led astray and fell into sin.

2:15
 Nevertheless, she will be saved by child-bearing, provided she lives a sensible life and is constant in faith and love and holiness.
