1 Timothy 2

King James Version with Apocrypha
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
1Ko ia ʻoku ou enginaki, ke fuofua fai ʻae kole, mo e ngaahi lotu, mo e hūfekina maʻu, mo e fakafetaʻi, koeʻuhi ko e kakai kotoa pē;
2For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
2Koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi tuʻi, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku pule: koeʻuhi ke tau moʻui ʻi he moʻui fiemālie mo e melino, ʻi he angafakaʻotua mo e anga totonu kotoa pē.
3For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
3He ko e meʻa lelei eni, pea ʻaonga ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua ko hotau Fakamoʻui;
4Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
4‌ʻAia ʻoku finangalo ke fakamoʻui ʻae kakai kotoa pē, pea ke lavaʻi ʻae ʻiloʻi ʻoe moʻoni.
5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
5He ʻoku taha pe ʻae ʻOtua mo e fakalaloa pe taha ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ʻOtua mo e kakai, ko e tangata ko Kalaisi Sisu;
6Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
6‌ʻAia naʻa ne foaki ʻe ia ia ko e totongi huhuʻi mā ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻaia ʻe fakamoʻoni ʻi hono kuonga totonu.
7Where unto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
7‌ʻAia kuo fakanofo au ki ai ko e malanga, mo e ʻaposetolo, (ʻoku ou leaʻaki ʻae moʻoni ʻia Kalaisi, ʻoku ʻikai teu loi;) ko e akonaki ki he ngaahi Senitaile ʻi he tui mo e moʻoni.
8I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
8Ko ia ko hoku loto ke lotu ʻae kakai ʻi he potu kotoa pē, ʻo mafao atu ʻae nima māʻoniʻoni, ʻo taʻeʻita mo taʻefakataʻetaʻetui.
9In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
9Pea ke pehē ʻae kau fefine foki, ke nau teuʻi ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae kofu ʻoku ngali ke ʻai, mo e mata angavaivai mo e anga fakapotopoto; kae ʻikai ʻi he fafatu ʻoe louʻulu, pe ʻi he ʻai ʻae koula, pe ko e mataʻitofe, pe ʻi he teungaʻaki ʻae koloa lahi;
10But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
10Ka ʻi he ngaahi ngaue lelei ʻaia ʻoku tau mo e kau fefine ʻoku nau fakahā ko e kau lotu ʻakinautolu ki he ʻOtua.
11Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
11Ke tali ʻe he kau fefine ʻae akonaki ʻi he fakalongo pē mo e angavaivai kotoa pē.
12But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
12He ʻoku ʻikai te u tuku ʻae fefine ke akonaki, pe ke faʻao ʻae pule ʻae tangata, ka ke fakalongo pe.
13For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
13He naʻe fuofua ngaohi ʻa ʻAtama, kae ʻi mui ʻa ʻIvi.
14And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
14Pea naʻe ʻikai kākāʻia ʻa ʻAtama, ka ko e fefine naʻe kākāʻia pea tō ia ki he talangataʻa.
15Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
15Ka neongo ia ʻe fakamoʻui ia ʻi he fānau, ʻo kapau ʻe tuʻumaʻu ʻakinautolu ʻi he tui mo e ʻofa mo e māʻoniʻoni mo e anga fakapotopoto.
