1 Timothy 2:1-4 ▼

1 First of all, then, I urge you to offer to God petitions, prayers, intercessions, and expressions of thanks for all people,

2 for kings, and for everyone who has authority, so that we might lead a quiet and peaceful life with all godliness and dignity.

3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to know the truth fully.
