1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all,
      supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving
      of thanks, be made for all men;
       2 For kings, and for all that are in authority;
      that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in
      all godliness and honesty.
       3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight
      of God our Saviour;
       4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come
      unto the knowledge of the truth.
       5 For there is one God, and one mediator between
      God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
       6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be
      testified in due time.
       7 Whereunto 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.
       8 I will therefore that men pray every where,
      lifting up holy hands, without wrath and
      doubting.
       9 In 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;
      10 But (which becometh women professing
      godliness) with good works.
      11 Let the woman learn in silence with all
      subjection.
      12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to
      usurp authority over the man, but to be in
      silence.
      13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
      14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being
      deceived was in the transgression.
      15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in
      childbearing, if they continue in faith and
      charity and holiness with sobriety.
