1 Timotheosbrevet 2
nuBibeln (Swedish Contemporary Bible)
Anvisningar om livet i församlingen
2 Framför allt uppmanar jag till bön och åkallan, till förbön och tacksägelse för alla människor, 2 för kungar och makthavare, så att vi får leva i fred och stillhet, i allting på ett gudfruktigt och värdigt sätt. 3 Detta är rätt och behagar Gud, vår Frälsare. 4 Han vill att alla ska bli räddade och komma till insikt om sanningen. 5 För det finns bara en Gud och bara en som är medlare mellan Gud och människor, och det är människan Kristus Jesus. 6 Han gav sig själv till lösen för alla – ett vittnesbörd som gavs när tiden var inne. 7 Och jag har blivit utsedd till detta som förkunnare och apostel – det är sant, jag ljuger inte – till att vara en lärare för hedningarna i tron och sanningen.
8 Jag vill alltså att männen överallt ska be med heliga, upplyfta händer, utan vrede och dispyter. 9 Jag vill också att kvinnorna ska uppträda och klä sig värdigt, anständigt och anspråkslöst. Det ska inte vara deras konstfulla frisyrer, smycken eller dyrbara kläder man lägger märke till, 10 utan goda gärningar, som det anstår kvinnor som vill framstå som gudfruktiga.
11 Kvinnan ska ta till sig undervisning i stillhet och i allting underordna sig. 12 Jag tillåter inte att en kvinna undervisar eller styr över en man. Hon ska hålla sig i stillhet.[a] 13 Först skapades ju Adam och sedan Eva. 14 Och det var inte Adam som blev lurad, utan kvinnan, som lät sig luras och förledas till överträdelse. 15 Men hon ska räddas genom sitt barnafödande,[b] om hon håller fast vid tro, kärlek och helgelse.

- 2:15 Kvinnan hade fått som straff att föda barn under smärta, men satsen kan också tolkas: om hon accepterar sitt barnafödande. Eller: genom Barnets födelse, dvs. Jesus födelse.
1 Timothy 2
International Standard Version
Prayer and Submission to Authority
2 First of all, then, I urge you to offer to God[a] petitions, prayers, intercessions, and expressions of thanks for all people, 2 for kings, and for everyone who has authority, so that we might lead a quiet and peaceful life with all godliness and dignity.[b] 3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to know the truth fully. 5 There is one God. There is also one mediator between God and human beings—a human, the Messiah[c] Jesus. 6 He gave himself as a ransom for everyone, the testimony at the proper time. 7 For this reason I was appointed to be an announcer, an apostle, and a faithful and true teacher of the gentiles. (I am telling you the truth.[d] I am not lying.)
Instructions to Men and Women
8 Therefore, I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands without being angry or argumentative. 9 Women, for their part, should display their beauty by dressing modestly and decently in appropriate clothes, not with elaborate hairstyles or by wearing gold, pearls, or expensive clothes, 10 but through good actions. This is proper for women who claim to revere God.
11 Let a woman learn with a quiet spirit, and submissively. 12 Moreover, in the area of teaching, I am not allowing a woman to instigate conflict toward a man. Instead, she is to remain calm. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve, 14 and it was not Adam who was deceived. It was the woman who was deceived and became disobedient, 15 even though she will be saved through the birth of the Child,[e] if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, along with good judgment.[f]

1 Timothy 2
King James Version
2 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
1 Timothy 2
New International Version
Instructions on Worship
2 I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers,(A) intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— 2 for kings and all those in authority,(B) that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness(C) and holiness. 3 This is good, and pleases(D) God our Savior,(E) 4 who wants(F) all people(G) to be saved(H) and to come to a knowledge of the truth.(I) 5 For there is one God(J) and one mediator(K) between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,(L) 6 who gave himself as a ransom(M) for all people. This has now been witnessed to(N) at the proper time.(O) 7 And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle—I am telling the truth, I am not lying(P)—and a true and faithful teacher(Q) of the Gentiles.(R)
8 Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands(S) without anger or disputing. 9 I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,(T) 10 but with good deeds,(U) appropriate for women who profess to worship God.
11 A woman[a] should learn in quietness and full submission.(V) 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man;[b] she must be quiet.(W) 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve.(X) 14 And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.(Y) 15 But women[c] will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love(Z) and holiness with propriety.
