1 Timothy 2 - King James Version with Greek
Law History Wisdom Prophets Gospels Acts Epistles Apocalyptic
1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; | ![]() | 1 παρακαλῶ οὗν πρῶτον πάντων ποιεῖσθαι δεήσεις, προσευχάς, ἐντεύξεις, εὐχαριστίας, ὑπὲρ πάντων ἀνθρώπων, |
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. | ![]() | 2 ὑπὲρ βασιλέων καὶ πάντων τῶν ἐν ὑπεροχῇ ὄντων, ἵνα ἤρεμον καὶ ἡσύχιον βίον διάγωμεν ἐν πάσῃ εὐσεβείᾳ καὶ σεμνότητι. |
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; | ![]() | 3 τοῦτο καλὸν καὶ ἀπόδεκτον ἐνώπιον τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν θεοῦ, |
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. | ![]() | 4 ὃς πάντας ἀνθρώπους θέλει σωθῆναι καὶ εἰς ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας ἐλθεῖν. |
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; | ![]() | 5 εἷς γὰρ θεός, εἷς καὶ μεσίτης θεοῦ καὶ ἀνθρώπων, ἄνθρωπος χριστὸς ἰησοῦς, |
6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. | ![]() | 6 ὁ δοὺς ἑαυτὸν ἀντίλυτρον ὑπὲρ πάντων, τὸ μαρτύριον καιροῖς ἰδίοις· |
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. | ![]() | 7 εἰς ὃ ἐτέθην ἐγὼ κῆρυξ καὶ ἀπόστολος _ ἀλήθειαν λέγω, οὐ ψεύδομαι _ διδάσκαλος ἐθνῶν ἐν πίστει καὶ ἀληθείᾳ. |
8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. | ![]() | 8 βούλομαι οὗν προσεύχεσθαι τοὺς ἄνδρας ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ, ἐπαίροντας ὁσίους χεῖρας χωρὶς ὀργῆς καὶ διαλογισμοῦ· |
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; | ![]() | 9 ὡσαύτως [καὶ] γυναῖκας ἐν καταστολῇ κοσμίῳ μετὰ αἰδοῦς καὶ σωφροσύνης κοσμεῖν ἑαυτάς, μὴ ἐν πλέγμασιν καὶ χρυσίῳ ἢ μαργαρίταις ἢ ἱματισμῶ πολυτελεῖ, |
10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. | ![]() | 10 ἀλλ᾽ ὃ πρέπει γυναιξὶν ἐπαγγελλομέναις θεοσέβειαν, δι᾽ ἔργων ἀγαθῶν. |
11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. | ![]() | 11 γυνὴ ἐν ἡσυχίᾳ μανθανέτω ἐν πάσῃ ὑποταγῇ· |
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. | ![]() | 12 διδάσκειν δὲ γυναικὶ οὐκ ἐπιτρέπω, οὐδὲ αὐθεντεῖν ἀνδρός, ἀλλ᾽ εἶναι ἐν ἡσυχίᾳ. |
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. | ![]() | 13 ἀδὰμ γὰρ πρῶτος ἐπλάσθη, εἶτα εὕα· |
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. | ![]() | 14 καὶ ἀδὰμ οὐκ ἠπατήθη, ἡ δὲ γυνὴ ἐξαπατηθεῖσα ἐν παραβάσει γέγονεν. |
15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety. | ![]() | 15 σωθήσεται δὲ διὰ τῆς τεκνογονίας, ἐὰν μείνωσιν ἐν πίστει καὶ ἀγάπῃ καὶ ἁγιασμῶ μετὰ σωφροσύνης. |
