1 - I desire therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings be made for all men:

2 - For kings and for all that are in high station: that we may lead a quiet and a peaceable life in all piety and chastity.

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

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

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

6 - Who gave himself a redemption for all, a testimony in due times.

7 - Whereunto I am appointed a preacher and an apostle (I say the truth, I lie not), a doctor of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

8 - I will therefore that men pray in every place, lifting up pure hands, without anger and contention.

9 - In like manner, women also in decent apparel: adorning themselves with modesty and sobriety, not with plaited hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly attire:

10 - But, as it becometh women professing godliness, with good works.

11 - Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

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

13 - For Adam was first formed; then Eve.

14 - And Adam was not seduced; but the woman, being seduced, was in the transgression.

15 - Yet she shall be saved through child bearing; if she continue in faith and love and sanctification with sobriety.
