J.B. Rotherham Emphasized Bible
1 Timothy 2
1 I exhort, therefore, first of all, that there be made - supplications, prayers, intercessions, thankgivings, in behalf of all men,2 In behalf of kings, and all them who are, in eminent station; in order that, an undisturbed, and quiet life, we may lead, in all godliness and gravity:3 This, is comely and acceptable before our Saviour God,4 Who willeth, all men, to be saved, and, unto a personal knowledge of truth, to come;5 For there is, one, God, one, mediator also, between God and men, - a man - Christ Jesus:6 Who gave himself a ransom in behalf of all, - the testimony, in its own fit times:7 Unto which, I, have been appointed proclaimer and apostle - Truth I speak, I utter no falsehood - a teacher of nations, in faith and truth.8 I am minded, therefore, that - the men in every place be offering prayer, uplifting hands of lovingkindness, apart from anger and disputings;
9 In the same way, that, the women, in seemly attire, with modesty and sober-mindedness, be adorning themselves, - not with plaitings and ornamentation of gold, or with pearls, or with costly apparel, - 10 But, which becometh women promising godliness, through means of good works.11 Let, a woman, in quietness, be learning in all submission;12 But, teaching - unto a woman, I do not permit, nor yet to have authority over a man, - but to be in quietness;13 For, Adam, first was formed, then Eve,14 And, Adam, was not deceived, whereas, the woman, having been wholly deceived, hath come to be, in transgression;15 She shall be saved, however, through means of the child-bearing, - if they abide in faith, and love, and holiness, with sobermindedness. Faithful, the saying.
