First of all , then , I urge that petitions , prayers , intercessions , (and) thanksgiving be offered for everyone ... —
for kings and all those ... in authority — so that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity.
This (is) good and pleasing in the sight of God our - Savior ,
who wants everyone ... to be saved and to come to (the) knowledge of (the) tRuth -.
For (there is) one God , and (there is) one mediator between God and men , (the) man Christ Jesus ,
who gave Himself (as) a ransom for all — the testimony that was given vvv at just the right time.
For (this reason) I was appointed as a preacher , - an apostle , (and) a faithful and true teacher of (the) Gentiles. I am telling (the) tRuth - ; (I am) not lying ( about anything ).
Therefore I want the men vvv vvv everywhere to pray , lifting up holy hands , without anger (or) dissension.
Likewise , (I want) (the) women to adorn themselves with respectable apparel , with modesty , and (with) self-control , not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes ,
but with good deeds , (as) is proper for women (who) profess to worship God.
A woman must learn in quietness (and) full submissiveness.
- vvv I do not permit a woman to teach (or) to exercise authority over a man ; - she is to remain - quiet.
For Adam was formed first , and then Eve.
And (it was) not Adam (who) was deceived , but the woman (who) was deceived (and) fell into transgression.
vvv Women, however, will be saved through - childbearing , if they continue in faith , - love , and holiness , with self-control.
