1 Timothy

The first epistle of Paul the Apostle to Timothy, chapter 2, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 2 Vulgate

   1 Obsecro igitur primo omnium fieri obsecrationes, orationes, postulationes, gratiarum actiones pro omnibus hominibus,
   2 pro regibus et omnibus, qui in sublimitate sunt, ut quietam et tranquillam vitam agamus in omni pietate et castitate.
   3 Hoc bonum est et acceptum coram salvatore nostro Deo,
   4 qui omnes homines vult salvos fieri et ad agnitionem veritatis venire.
   5 Unus enim Deus, unus et mediator Dei et hominum, homo Christus Iesus,
   6 qui dedit redemptionem semetipsum pro omnibus, testimonium temporibus suis;
   7 in quod positus sum ego praedicator et apostolus - veritatem dico, non mentior - doctor gentium in fide et veritate.
   8 Volo ergo viros orare in omni loco levantes puras manus sine ira et disceptatione;
   9 similiter et mulieres in habitu ornato cum verecundia et sobrietate ornantes se, non in tortis crinibus et auro aut margaritis vel veste pretiosa,
   10 sed, quod decet mulieres, profitentes pietatem per opera bona.
   11 Mulier in tranquillitate discat cum omni subiectione;
   12 docere autem mulieri non permitto neque dominari in virum, sed esse in tranquillitate.
   13 Adam enim primus formatus est, deinde Eva;
   14 et Adam non est seductus, mulier autem seducta in praevaricatione fuit.
   15 Salvabitur autem per filiorum generationem, si permanserint in fide et dilectione et sanctificatione cum sobrietate.

King James Version

   1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
   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;
   10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
   11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
   12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
   13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
   14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
   15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
