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.
