1 Tm 2:8-15

8* It is my wish, then, that in every place the men should pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger or argument. 9Similarly, [too,] women should adorn themselves with proper conduct, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hairstyles and gold ornaments, or pearls, or expensive clothes,g 10but rather, as befits women who profess reverence for God, with good deeds.h 11A woman must receive instruction silently and under complete control.i 12I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man.* She must be quiet. 13For Adam was formed first, then Eve.j 14Further, Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and transgressed.k 15But she will be saved through motherhood, provided women persevere in faith and love and holiness, with self-control.l
