2:1 Expectations for behaviour

2 Then first of all I urge you all to pray for all people—petitioning to God while also expressing thanks for them. 2 So too for kings and other prominent officials so that we can live a quiet and tranquil life with all devoutness and dignity. 3 This is good and pleasing to God our saviour 4 who wants everyone to be saved and to know the truth.[ref] 5 There’s only one God and also one mediator between God and humankind and that’s the man Yeshua the messiah 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people and as a testimony of God’s love for all time. 7 I was appointed[ref] to proclaim that message and as an missionary—no lies, I’m telling you the truth here in the messiah—and also as a teacher of knowledge and the truth to non-Jews.

8 That’s why I long to see men praying in every country, lifting up their morally-clean hands and not harbouring anger or disunity.

9 Similarly women should wear respectable clothes that are sensible and modest,[ref] not with braids or gold or pearls or expensive clothing 10 but with what is fitting for women who do good things, having declared that they honour God. 11 Women should be learning quietly and submissively, 12 but I don’t permit women to be teaching or domineering men. They should remain quiet 13 because Adam was created first, then Eve,[ref] 14 and it wasn’t Adam that was seduced but rather it was the woman that was deceived and disobeyed.[ref] 15 But women will be saved through childbearing if they continue in faith and love and purity and self-control.

2:7: 2Tim 1:11.

2:13: a Gen 2:7; b Gen 2:21-22.

2:14: Gen 3:1-6.

2 Therefore I _am _exhorting, first of _all petitions, prayers, petitions, thanksgivings to _be _being _made, because/for all people, 2 for kings and all who being in prominence, in _order _that we _may _be _going _by a_tranquil and quiet living in all devoutness and dignity.
3 This is good and acceptable before god the saviour of _us, 4 who is _wanting all people to _be _saved, and to _come to the_knowledge of_the_truth.
5 For/Because one god there _is, also one mediator between_god and humans, the_human chosen _one /messiah Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa), 6 the one having _given himself a_ransom for all, and testimony in_ its_own _seasons, 7 to which I was _appointed a_proclaimer and an_ambassador (I _am _speaking the_truth in chosen _one /messiah, I _am_ not _lying), a_teacher of_the_pagans in knowledge and truth.
8 Therefore I _am _wishing the men to _be _praying in every place, lifted _up devout hands apart _from severe _anger and speculation.
9 Likewise women in respectable apparel to _be _adorning themselves with modesty and sobriety, not with braids, and gold, or pearls, or expensive clothing, 10 but what is _befitting to _women professing the_god-fearing, through good works.
11 Let_ a_woman _be _learning in quietness in all submission.
12 But I _am_ not _permitting to _be _teaching by_a_women, nor to _be _domineering of_a_man, but to _be in quietness.
13 For/Because Adam/(ʼĀdām) was _formed first, thereafter Heua/(Ḩavvāh), 14 and Adam was_ not _seduced, but the woman having _been _deceived, has _become in transgression.
15 But she _will _be _being _saved through the childbearing, if they _may _remain in faith, and love, and holiness, with sobriety.
