11 A woman should learn in a quiet manner with full submission. 12 And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man. Instead, she is to continue in a quiet manner. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but it was the woman who was deceived and became a transgressor. 15 But she will be saved—while bearing children[a]—if they remain in faith and love and sanctification with self-control.
