1 I Exhorte therfore, that aboue all thynges, prayers, supplicacyons, intercessions, and geuynge of thankes be had for all men:
2 for kynges, and for all that are in auctorite, that we maye lyue a quyet and a peaceable lyfe, wyth all Godlynes and honestye.
3 For that is good and accepted in the syght of God oure sauyoure,
4 whych wyll haue all men to be saued, and to come vnto the knowledge of the trueth.
5 For ther is one God, and one mediator betwene God and man, euen the man Christ Iesus,
6 whych gaue him selfe a raunsome for all men, that it shulde be testifyed at hys tyme,
7 where vnto I am ordayned a preacher and an Apostle. I tell the trueth in Christ and lye not: beynge the teacher of the gentyls wyth fayth and veritye.
8 I wyll therfore that the men praye euery where, lyftynge vp pure handes without wrath, or doubtinge.
9 Lykewise also the wemen, that they araye them selues in comlye apparell wyth shamfastnes and discrete behaueour, not wt broyded heare, ether golde or pearles, or costly araye:
10 but as becommeth wemen, that professe godlynesse thorowe good worckes.
11 Let the woman learne in sylence wyth all subieccyon.
12 But I suffre not a woman to teach, nether to vsurpe auctoryte ouer the man: but to be in sylence.
13 For Adam was fyrst fourmed, & then Eue.
14 Adam also was not deceaued, but the woman was deceaued, and was subdued to the transgressyon.
15 Notwythstandynge thorowe bearynge of chyldren she shalbe saued, yf they contynue in fayth and loue, and holynes, wyth discrecyon.
