American King James Version

2 : 1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

2 : 2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

2 : 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;

2 : 4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

2 : 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

2 : 6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

2 : 7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.

2 : 8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

2 : 9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with modesty and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

2 : 10 But (which becomes women professing godliness) with good works.

2 : 11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

2 : 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

2 : 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

2 : 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

2 : 15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
