1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and [for] all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God-The Father our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5 For [there is] one God-The Father, and one mediator between God-The Father and men, the man Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation];
6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
