1 Timothy 2:9-12

English Standard Version

⁹ likewise also ^(A)that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, ^10 (B)but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works. ¹¹ Let a woman learn quietly ^(C)with all submissiveness. ^12 (D)I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.
