New King James Version
1 Timothy 2:9-15
New King James Version
9 in like manner also, that the (A)women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and [a]moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing, 10 (B)but, which is proper for women professing godliness, with good works. 11 Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. 12 And (C)I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression. 15 Nevertheless she will be saved in childbearing if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.

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. 13 (E)For Adam was formed first, (F)then Eve; 14 and Adam was not deceived, but (G)the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. 15 Yet she will be saved through (H)childbearing—if they continue in (I)faith and love and holiness, with self-control.

9 Likewise, I want (A)women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, [a]modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or expensive apparel, 10 but rather by means of good works, as is proper for women making a claim to godliness. 11 (B)A woman must quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness. 12 (C)But I do not allow a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. 13 (D)For it was Adam who was first [b]created, and then Eve. 14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but (E)the woman was [c]deceived and [d]became a wrongdoer. 15 But [e]women will be [f]preserved through [g]childbirth—if they continue in (F)faith, love, and sanctity, with moderation.

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,(A) 10 but with good deeds,(B) appropriate for women who profess to worship God.
11 A woman[a] should learn in quietness and full submission.(C) 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man;[b] she must be quiet.(D) 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve.(E) 14 And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.(F) 15 But women[c] will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love(G) and holiness with propriety.

New Living Translation
1 Timothy 2:9-15
New Living Translation
9 And I want women to be modest in their appearance.[a] They should wear decent and appropriate clothing and not draw attention to themselves by the way they fix their hair or by wearing gold or pearls or expensive clothes. 10 For women who claim to be devoted to God should make themselves attractive by the good things they do.
11 Women should learn quietly and submissively. 12 I do not let women teach men or have authority over them.[b] Let them listen quietly. 13 For God made Adam first, and afterward he made Eve. 14 And it was not Adam who was deceived by Satan. The woman was deceived, and sin was the result. 15 But women will be saved through childbearing,[c] assuming they continue to live in faith, love, holiness, and modesty.
