1 Timothy 2:1-4 ▼

1 First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for everyone,

2 for kings and all those who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

3 This is good, and it pleases God our Savior,

4 who wants everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
