- I Exhort therefore, that first of all supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giuing of thanks be made for all men,
- 2
- For Kings, and for all that are in authoritie, that we may leade a quiet and a peaceable life, in all godlinesse and honestie.
- 3
- For this is good & acceptable in the sight of God our Sauiour,
- 4
- Who will that all men shalbe saued, and come vnto the acknowledging of the trueth.
- 5
- For there is one God, and one Mediatour betweene God and man, which is the man Christ Iesus,
- 6
- Who gaue himselfe a ransome for all men, to be that testimonie in due time,
- 7
- Whereunto I am ordeined a preacher and an Apostle (I speake the trueth in Christ, and lie not) euen a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and veritie.
- 8
- I will therefore that the men pray, euery where lifting vp pure hands without wrath, or douting.
- 9
- Likewise also the women, that they aray themselues in comely apparell, with shamefastnes and modestie, not with broyded heare, or gold, or pearles, or costly apparell,
- 10
- But (as becommeth women that professe the feare of God) with good workes.
- 11
- Let the woman learne in silence with all subiection.
- 12
- I permit not a woman to teache, neither to vsurpe authoritie ouer the man, but to be in silence.
- 13
- For Adam was first formed, then Eue.
- 14
- And Adam was not deceiued, but the woman was deceiued, and was in the transgression.
- 15
- Notwithstanding, through bearing of children she shalbe saued if they continue in faith, and loue, and holines with modestie.
