1 And so I beg you, first of all, to make supplications, prayers, petitions, and thanksgivings for all men, First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—
2 for kings, and for all who are in high places, so that we may lead a quiet and tranquil life in all piety and chastity. for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, This is good, and pleases God our Savior,
4 who wants all men to be saved and to arrive at an acknowledgment of the truth. who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God, and one mediator of God and of men, the man Christ Jesus, For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,
6 who gave himself as a redemption for all, as a testimony in its proper time. who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time. who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.
7 Of this testimony, I have been appointed a preacher and an Apostle, (I speak the truth, I do not lie) as a teacher of the Gentiles, in faith and in truth. For this I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth. And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle—I am telling the truth, I am not lying—and a true and faithful teacher of the Gentiles.
8 Therefore, I want men to pray in every place, lifting up pure hands, without anger or dissension. I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling; Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or disputing.
9 Similarly also, women should be dressed fittingly, adorning themselves with compunction and restraint, and not with plaited hair, nor gold, nor pearls, nor costly attire, likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,
10 but in a manner proper for women who are professing piety by means of good works. but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works. but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God.
11 Let a woman learn in silence with all subjection. Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. A woman should learn in quietness and full submission.
12 For I do not permit a woman to teach, nor to be in authority over a man, but to be in silence. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.
13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not seduced, but the woman, having been seduced, was in transgression. and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.
15 Yet she will be saved by bearing children, if she has continued in faith and love, and in sanctification accompanied by self-restraint. Yet she will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control. But women will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.
