12 (A)I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. 13 (B)For Adam was formed first, (C)then Eve; 14 and Adam was not deceived, but (D)the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. 15 Yet she will be saved through (E)childbearing—if they continue in (F)faith and love and holiness, with self-control.
