002:006 who gave Himself as the redemption price for all—a fact
testified to at its own appointed time,

002:007 and of which I have been appointed a herald and an Apostle (I am speaking the truth: it is not a fiction), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

002:008 So then I would have the men everywhere pray, lifting to God holy hands which are unstained with anger or strife;

002:009 and I would have the women dress becomingly, with modesty and self-control, not with plaited hair or gold or pearls or costly clothes,

002:010 but—as befits women making a claim to godliness— with the ornament of good works.

002:011 A woman should quietly learn from others with entire submissiveness.

002:012 I do not permit a woman to teach, nor have authority over a man, but she must remain silent.

002:013 For Adam was formed first, and then Eve;

002:014 and Adam was not deceived, but his wife was thoroughly deceived, and so became involved in transgression.

002:015 Yet a woman will be brought safely through childbirth if she and her husband continue to live in faith and love and growing holiness, with habitual self-restraint.
