Paul’s First Letter to Timothy

Chapters:

1 2 3 4 5 6

verse #1

I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks be made for all men,

verse #2

for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.

verse #3

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

verse #4

who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth.

verse #5

For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

verse #6

who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony at the proper time,

verse #7

to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am telling the truth in Christ, not lying—a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

verse #8

I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands without anger and doubting.

verse #9

In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety, not with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing,

verse #10

but with good works, which is appropriate for women professing godliness.

verse #11

Let a woman learn in quietness with full submission.

verse #12

But I don’t permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.

verse #13

For Adam was formed first, then Eve.

verse #14

Adam wasn’t deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;

verse #15

but she will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and holiness with sobriety.
