1 Timothy 2:1-4 ▼

1 First of all, then, I urge that requests, prayers, intercessions, and thanks be offered on behalf of all people,

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

3 Such prayer for all is good and welcomed before God our Savior,

4 since he wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.
