1st Timothy Chapter 2 American Standard-ASV1901

1st Timothy 2:1

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

1st Timothy 2:2

for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and gravity.

1st Timothy 2:3

This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

1st Timothy 2:4

who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth.

1st Timothy 2:5

For there is one God, one mediator also between God and men, `himself' man, Christ Jesus,

1st Timothy 2:6

who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony `to be borne' in its own times;

1st Timothy 2:7

whereunto I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth, I lie not), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

1st Timothy 2:8

I desire therefore that the men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and disputing.

1st Timothy 2:9

In like manner, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefastness and sobriety; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly raiment;

1st Timothy 2:10

but (which becometh women professing godliness) through good works.

1st Timothy 2:11

Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.

1st Timothy 2:12

But I permit not a woman to teach, nor to have dominion over a man, but to be in quietness.

1st Timothy 2:13

For Adam was first formed, then Eve;

1st Timothy 2:14

and Adam was not beguiled, but the woman being beguiled hath fallen into transgression:

1st Timothy 2:15

but she shall be saved through her child-bearing, if they continue in faith and love and sanctification with sobriety.
