Lamsa Translation - 1Timothy Chapter 2

 

1 ¶ I BESEECH you, therefore, first of all to offer to God, petitions, prayers, supplications, and thanksgiving for all men,

2 For kings and for all in authority; that we may live a quiet and peaceable life, in all purity and Godliness.

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

4 Who desires all men to be saved and to return to the knowledge of the truth.

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

6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, a testimony which came in due time.

7 For that testimony I was appointed a preacher and an apostle; I tell the truth and I lie not; and I became the teacher of the Gentiles in a true faith.

8 I wish, therefore, that men pray everywhere, lifting up their holy hands without anger and doubting thoughts.

9 ¶ In like manner also, let the apparel of women be simple and their adornment be modest and refined; not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly array;

10 But let them be engaged in good works, as is becoming women who profess reverence for God.

11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

12 I do not think it seemly for a woman to debate publicly or otherwise usurp the authority of men, but she should be silent.

13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve.

14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and she transgressed the law.

15 Nevertheless, if her posterity continue in faith and have holiness and chastity, she will live through them.
