| # Chapter 2
#### 1 | I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men:
#### 2 | for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.
#### 3 | For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God, our Savior;
#### 4 | who desires to have all men to be saved, and come to full knowledge of the truth.
#### 5 | For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
#### 6 | who gave himself as a ransom for all; the testimony in its own times;
#### 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.
#### 8 | I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
#### 9 | In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety; not just with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly clothing;
#### 10 | but (which becomes women professing godliness) through good works.
#### 11 | Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.
#### 12 | But I don't permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.
#### 13 | For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
#### 14 | Adam wasn't deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;
#### 15 | but she will be saved through her child-bearing, if they continue in faith, love, and sanctification with sobriety.
