1 Timothy 2:8-15
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
8 So I want the men in every place to be praying, lifting-up holy hands without anger and argument.
Women’s Appearance And Behavior Should Be Fitting For Ones Professing Godliness
9 Similarly also, I urge that women be adorning themselves in well-ordered[a] apparel with modesty and sound-mindedness[b]— not in braided hair and gold or pearls or very-expensive clothing, 10 but through[c] good works, which is fitting for women professing godliness[d]. 11 Let a woman be learning in quietness with all submission. 12 And I do not permit a woman to teach nor have-authority-over[e] a man, but to be in quietness. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived[f], but the woman, having been completely-deceived, has come-to-be in transgression. 15 But she[g] will be saved by[h] The Childbearing, if they[i] continue in faith and love and holiness with sound-mindedness.
