1 I exhort, then, first of all, there be made supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, for all men:

1 παρακαλῶ οὗν πρῶτον πάντων ποιεῖσθαι δεήσεις, προσευχάς, ἐντεύξεις, εὐχαριστίας, ὑπὲρ πάντων ἀνθρώπων,

2 for kings, and all who are in authority, that a quiet and peaceable life we may lead in all piety and gravity,

2 ὑπὲρ βασιλέων καὶ πάντων τῶν ἐν ὑπεροχῇ ὄντων, ἵνα ἤρεμον καὶ ἡσύχιον βίον διάγωμεν ἐν πάσῃ εὐσεβείᾳ καὶ σεμνότητι.

3 for this `is' right and acceptable before God our Saviour,

3 τοῦτο καλὸν καὶ ἀπόδεκτον ἐνώπιον τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν θεοῦ,

4 who doth will all men to be saved, and to come to the full knowledge of the truth;

4 ὃς πάντας ἀνθρώπους θέλει σωθῆναι καὶ εἰς ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας ἐλθεῖν.

5 for one `is' God, one also `is' mediator of God and of men, the man Christ Jesus,

5 εἷς γὰρ θεός, εἷς καὶ μεσίτης θεοῦ καὶ ἀνθρώπων, ἄνθρωπος χριστὸς ἰησοῦς,

6 who did give himself a ransom for all -- the testimony in its own times --

6 ὁ δοὺς ἑαυτὸν ἀντίλυτρον ὑπὲρ πάντων, τὸ μαρτύριον καιροῖς ἰδίοις·

7 in regard to which I was set a preacher and apostle -- truth I say in Christ, I do not lie -- a teacher of nations, in faith and truth.

7 εἰς ὃ ἐτέθην ἐγὼ κῆρυξ καὶ ἀπόστολος _ ἀλήθειαν λέγω, οὐ ψεύδομαι _ διδάσκαλος ἐθνῶν ἐν πίστει καὶ ἀληθείᾳ.

8 I wish, therefore, that men pray in every place, lifting up kind hands, apart from anger and reasoning;

8 βούλομαι οὗν προσεύχεσθαι τοὺς ἄνδρας ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ, ἐπαίροντας ὁσίους χεῖρας χωρὶς ὀργῆς καὶ διαλογισμοῦ·

9 in like manner also the women, in becoming apparel, with modesty and sobriety to adorn themselves, not in braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or garments of great price,

9 ὡσαύτως [καὶ] γυναῖκας ἐν καταστολῇ κοσμίῳ μετὰ αἰδοῦς καὶ σωφροσύνης κοσμεῖν ἑαυτάς, μὴ ἐν πλέγμασιν καὶ χρυσίῳ ἢ μαργαρίταις ἢ ἱματισμῶ πολυτελεῖ,

10 but -- which becometh women professing godly piety -- through good works.

10 ἀλλ᾽ ὃ πρέπει γυναιξὶν ἐπαγγελλομέναις θεοσέβειαν, δι᾽ ἔργων ἀγαθῶν.

11 Let a woman in quietness learn in all subjection,

11 γυνὴ ἐν ἡσυχίᾳ μανθανέτω ἐν πάσῃ ὑποταγῇ·

12 and a woman I do not suffer to teach, nor to rule a husband, but to be in quietness,

12 διδάσκειν δὲ γυναικὶ οὐκ ἐπιτρέπω, οὐδὲ αὐθεντεῖν ἀνδρός, ἀλλ᾽ εἶναι ἐν ἡσυχίᾳ.

13 for Adam was first formed, then Eve,

13 ἀδὰμ γὰρ πρῶτος ἐπλάσθη, εἶτα εὕα·

14 and Adam was not deceived, but the woman, having been deceived, into transgression came,

14 καὶ ἀδὰμ οὐκ ἠπατήθη, ἡ δὲ γυνὴ ἐξαπατηθεῖσα ἐν παραβάσει γέγονεν.

15 and she shall be saved through the child-bearing, if they remain in faith, and love, and sanctification, with sobriety.

15 σωθήσεται δὲ διὰ τῆς τεκνογονίας, ἐὰν μείνωσιν ἐν πίστει καὶ ἀγάπῃ καὶ ἁγιασμῶ μετὰ σωφροσύνης.
