4 Who wyll haue all men to be saued, and to come vnto the knowledge of the trueth.

5 For there is one God, and one mediatour of God and men, the man Christe Iesus:

6 Who gaue him selfe a raunsome for all, a testimonie in due tymes.

7 Wherevnto I am ordeined a preacher and an apostle (I tell the trueth in Christe, and lye not) a teacher of the gentiles in fayth and veritie.

8 I wyll therefore, that the men praye euerywhere, lyftyng vp holy handes, without wrath and reasonyng.

9 Lykewyse also the women, that they araye them selues in comely apparell, with shamefastnesse, and discrete behauiour, not in brayded heere, either golde or pearles, or costly aray:

10 But (that becommeth women professyng godlynesse) through good workes.

11 Let the woman learne in scilence in all subiection.

12 But I suffer not a woman to teache, neither to vsurpe auctoritie ouer ye man, but to be in scilence.

13 For Adam was first fourmed, then Eue.

14 And Adam was not deceaued: but the woman beyng deceaued, was in the transgression.

15 Notwithstandyng through bearyng of chyldren she shalbe saued, yf they continue in fayth and loue, and holynesse, with modestie.
