New American Standard Bible
Chapter 2
1
First of all, then, I urge that requests, prayers, intercession,
and
thanksgiving be made in behalf of all people,
2
for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.
3
This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
4
who wants all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
5
For there is one God,
and
one mediator also between God and mankind,
the
man Christ Jesus,
6
who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony
given
at the proper time.
7
For this I was appointed as a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), as a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
8
Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger and dispute.
9
Likewise,
I want
women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or expensive apparel,
King James Version
Chapter 2
1

2
For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the 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 a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
7
Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
8
I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
9
In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

1
I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them.
2
Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity.
3
This is good and pleases God our Savior,
4
who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth.
5
For,
There is one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity — the man Christ Jesus.
6
He gave his life to purchase freedom for everyone.
This is the message God gave to the world at just the right time.
7
And I have been chosen as a preacher and apostle to teach the Gentiles this message about faith and truth. I’m not exaggerating — just telling the truth.
8
In every place of worship, I want men to pray with holy hands lifted up to God, free from anger and controversy.
9
And I want women to be modest in their appearance. They should wear decent and appropriate clothing and not draw attention to themselves by the way they fix their hair or by wearing gold or pearls or expensive clothes.
