1 Timothy 2 (ASV)

View mode
  1. 1

    I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all men;

  2. 2

    for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and gravity.

  3. 3

    This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

  4. 4

    who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth.

  5. 5

    For there is one God, one mediator also between God and men, himself man, Christ Jesus,

  6. 6

    who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony to be borne in its own times;

  7. 7

    whereunto I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth, I lie not), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

  8. 8

    I desire therefore that the men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and disputing.

  9. 9

    In like manner, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefastness and sobriety; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly raiment;

  10. 10

    but (which becometh women professing godliness) through good works.

  11. 11

    Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.

  12. 12

    But I permit not a woman to teach, nor to have dominion over a man, but to be in quietness.

  13. 13

    For Adam was first formed, then Eve;

  14. 14

    and Adam was not beguiled, but the woman being beguiled hath fallen into transgression:

  15. 15

    but she shall be saved through her child-bearing, if they continue in faith and love and sanctification with sobriety.
