1 I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all men,

2 for kings and all those who are in prominence, so that we may live a quiet and peaceful life in all piety and propriety.

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

4 who wants all men to be saved and to come to knowledge of truth.

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

6 who gave himself a ransom for all, the testimony for their own times.

7 For which I was appointed a herald and an apostle (I speak the truth in Christ, I do not lie), a teacher of Gentiles in faith and truth.

8 I desire therefore the men to pray in every place, lifting up devout hands, apart from anger and argument.

9 And similarly, the women to adorn themselves in disciplined decorum, with reverence and sobriety, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive apparel,

10 but (which is fitting for women professing godliness) through good works.

11 Let a woman learn in silence in all subjection.

12 But I do not allow a woman to teach, nor to act autonomously from a man, but to be in quietness.

13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman, having been deceived, became in transgression.

15 But she will be saved through childbearing, if they continue in faith and love and sanctification with sobriety.

1 I exhorte therfore that above all thynges prayers supplicacions intercessions and gevynge of thankes behad for all men:

2 for kynges and for all that are in auctorite that we maye live a quyet and a peasable life in all godlines and honestie.

3 For that is good and accepted in the sight of god oure savioure

4 which will have all men saved and to come vnto the knowledge of ye trueth.

5 For ther is one god and one (mediator) bitwene god and man which is ye man Christ Iesus

6 which gave him silfe a raunsome for all men that it shuld be testified at his tyme

7 wherevnto I am ordayned a preacher and an apostle: I tell the trueth in Christ and lye not beynge the teacher of the gentyls in fayth and veritie.

8 I wyll therfore that the men praye every where liftynge vp pure hondes without wrath or dowtinge.

9 Lykwyse also the wemen that they araye them selves in comlye aparell with shamfastnes and discrete behaveour not with broyded heare other golde or pearles or costly araye:

10 but with suche as becometh wemen that professe the worshippynge of God thorow good workes.

11 Let the woman learne in silence with all subieccion.

12 I suffre not a woman to teache nether to have auctoricie over a man: but forto be in silence.

13 For Adam was fyrst formed and then Eve.

14 Also Adam was not deceaved but the woman was deceaved and was in transgression.

15 Notwithstondynge thorow bearinge of chyldre they shalbe saved so they continue in fayth love and holynes with discrecion.
