1 Timothy 2

DOUAI-RHEIMS	NEW JERUSALEM
1 I desire therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men:	1 I urge then, first of al that petitions, prayers, intercessions and thanksgiving should be offered foreveryone,
2 For kings, and for all that are in high station: that we may lead a quiet and a peaceable life in all piety and chastity.	2 for kings and others in authority, so that we may be able to live peaceful and quiet lives with al devotionand propriety.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour,	3 To do this is right, and acceptable to God our Saviour:
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth.	4 he wants everyone to be saved and reach full knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God, and one mediator of God and men, the man Christ Jesus:	5 For there is only one God, and there is only one mediator between God and humanity, himself a humanbeing, Christ Jesus,
6 Who gave himself a redemption for all, a testimony in due times.	6 who offered himself as a ransom for al . This was the witness given at the appointed time,
7 Whereunto I am appointed a preacher and an apostle, (I say the truth, I lie not,) a doctor of the Gentiles in faith and truth.	7 of which I was appointed herald and apostle and -- I am telling the truth and no lie -- a teacher of thegentiles in faith and truth.
8 I will therefore that men pray in every place, lifting up pure hands, without anger and contention.	8 In every place, then, I want the men to lift their hands up reverently in prayer, with no anger or argument.
9 In like manner women also in decent apparel: adorning themselves with modesty and sobriety, not with plaited hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly attire,	9 Similarly, women are to wear suitable clothes and to be dressed quietly and modestly, without braidedhair or gold and jewellery or expensive clothes;
10 But as it becometh women professing godliness, with good works.	10 their adornment is to do the good works that are proper for women who claim to be religious.
11 Let the woman learn in silence, with all subjection.	11 During instruction, a woman should be quiet and respectful.
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to use authority over the man: but to be in silence.	12 I give no permission for a woman to teach or to have authority over a man. A woman ought to be quiet,
13 For Adam was first formed; then Eve.	13 because Adam was formed first and Eve afterwards,
14 And Adam was not seduced; but the woman being seduced, was in the transgression.	14 and it was not Adam who was led astray but the woman who was led astray and fell into sin.
15 Yet she shall be saved through childbearing; if she continue in faith, and love, and sanctification, with sobriety.	15 Nevertheless, she will be saved by child-bearing, provided she lives a sensible life and is constant infaith and love and holiness.
