Chapter 2

parakalw oun prwton pantwn poieisqai dehseiV proseucaV enteuxeiV eucaristiaV uper pantwn anqrwpwn
2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men;

uper basilewn kai pantwn twn en uperoch ontwn ina hremon kai hsucion bion diagwmen en pash eusebeia kai semnothti
2:2 For kings, and [for] all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

touto gar kalon kai apodekton enwpion tou swthroV hmwn qeou
2:3 For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

oV pantaV anqrwpouV qelei swqhnai kai eiV epignwsin alhqeiaV elqein
2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

eiV gar qeoV eiV kai mesithV qeou kai anqrwpwn anqrwpoV cristoV ihsouV
2:5 For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

o douV eauton antilutron uper pantwn to marturion kairoiV idioiV
2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

eiV o eteqhn egw khrux kai apostoloV alhqeian legw en cristw ou yeudomai didaskaloV eqnwn en pistei kai alhqeia
2:7 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.

boulomai oun proseucesqai touV andraV en panti topw epairontaV osiouV ceiraV cwriV orghV kai dialogismou
2:8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

wsautwV kai taV gunaikaV en katastolh kosmiw meta aidouV kai swfrosunhV kosmein eautaV mh en plegmasin h crusw h margaritaiV h imatismw polutelei
2:9 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;

all o prepei gunaixin epaggellomenaiV qeosebeian di ergwn agaqwn
2:10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.

gunh en hsucia manqanetw en pash upotagh
2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

gunaiki de didaskein ouk epitrepw oude auqentein androV all einai en hsucia
2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

adam gar prwtoV eplasqh eita eua
2:13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

kai adam ouk hpathqh h de gunh apathqeisa en parabasei gegonen
2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

swqhsetai de dia thV teknogoniaV ean meinwsin en pistei kai agaph kai agiasmw meta swfrosunhV
2:15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
