1 Timothy 2:1-4 ▼

1 First of all, then, I exhort that petitions and prayers, requests and thanksgivings, be made for all men,

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

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

4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the full knowledge of the truth.
