1 Timothy 2:1 - 2:2

Exhortation to Prayer

First of all, then, I exhort that petitions and prayers, requests and thanksgivings, be made for all men,
2 for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

1 Timothy 2:8 - 2:10

8 Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and dissension.

Instructions for Women

9 Likewise, I want women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, with modesty and self-restraint, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly clothing,
10 but rather by means of good works, as is proper for women professing godliness.
