1 Timothy 2:1-6 ▼

1 And so I beg you, first of all, to make supplications, prayers, petitions, and thanksgivings for all men,

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.

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

4 who wants all men to be saved and to arrive at an acknowledgment of the truth.

5 For there is one God, and one mediator of God and of men, the man Christ Jesus,

6 who gave himself as a redemption for all, as a testimony in its proper time.
