1First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be offered for everyone—
1I desire therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men:
2for kings and all those in authority—so that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity.
2For kings, and for all that are in high station: that we may lead a quiet and a peaceable life in all piety and chastity.
3This is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Savior,
3For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour,
4who wants everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
4Who will have all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
5For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
5For there is one God, and one mediator of God and men, the man Christ Jesus:
6who gave Himself as a ransom for all—the testimony that was given at just the right time.
6Who gave himself a redemption for all, a testimony in due times.
7For this reason I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a faithful and true teacher of the Gentiles. I am telling the truth; I am not lying about anything.
7Whereunto I am appointed a preacher and an apostle, (I say the truth, I lie not,) a doctor of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
8Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger or dissension.
8I will therefore that men pray in every place, lifting up pure hands, without anger and contention.
9Likewise, I want the women to adorn themselves with respectable apparel, with modesty, and with self-control, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,
9In like manner women also in decent apparel: adorning themselves with modesty and sobriety, not with plaited hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly attire,
10but with good deeds, as is proper for women who profess to worship God.
10But as it becometh women professing godliness, with good works.
11A woman must learn in quietness and full submissiveness.
11Let the woman learn in silence, with all subjection.
12I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; she is to remain quiet.
12But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to use authority over the man: but to be in silence.
13For Adam was formed first, and then Eve.
13For Adam was first formed; then Eve.
14And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman who was deceived and fell into transgression.
14And Adam was not seduced; but the woman being seduced, was in the transgression.
15Women, however, will be saved through childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.
15Yet she shall be saved through childbearing; if she continue in faith, and love, and sanctification, with sobriety.
