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.
