2:1 ¶
I REQUIRE then from thee, that, before every thing supplication be offered to Aloha, and prayer and intercession and thanksgiving for all men; |
|
2:1
I exhort thee, therefore, first of all, that thou present to God supplication, and prayer, and intercession, and thanksgiving, for all men: |
2:2
for kings and princes, that an habitation quiet and tranquil we may inhabit in all the fear of Aloha and purity. |
|
2:2
for kings and magistrates, that we may dwell in a quiet and tranquil habitation, with all reverence for God, and with purity. |
2:3
For this is good and acceptable before Aloha our Saviour; |
|
2:3
For this is good and acceptable before God our life-giver; |
2:4
who willeth that all men should be saved, and turn to the knowledge of the truth. |
|
2:4
who would have all men live, and be converted to the knowledge of the truth. |
2:5
For one is Aloha, and one is the Mediator of Aloha and of men; the man Jeshu Meshiha, |
|
2:5
For God is one; and the mediator between God and men is one, [namely] the man Jesus the Messiah; |
2:6
who gave himself a ransom for every man; a testimony which cometh in its time, |
|
2:6
who gave himself a ransom for every man; a testimony that arrived in due time, |
2:7
of which I am constituted an herald and an apostle, I say the truth and lie not, to be a teacher of the nations in the faith of the truth. |
|
2:7
of which I am constituted a herald and legate. I speak the truth, and do not lie, for I am the teacher of the Gentiles in the belief of the truth. |
2:8
I wish then for men to pray in every place, uplifting their hands purely and without wrath and without disputations. |
|
2:8
I desire therefore, that men may pray in every place, while they lift up their hands with purity, without wrath, and without disputations. |
2:9
So also let women with decorous simplicity of apparel, with modesty and with chastity, adorn themselves, not with braidings, and with gold, and with pearls, and with fine vestments, |
|
2:9
So also, that women [appear] in a chaste fashion of dress; and that their adorning be with modesty and chastity; not with curls, or with gold, or with pearls, or with splendid robes; |
2:10
but with good works, as becometh women who profess the fear of Aloha. |
|
2:10
but with good works, as becometh women who profess reverence for God. |
2:11
Let the wife in quietude learn with all submission: |
|
2:11
Let a woman learn in silence, with all submission: |
2:12
for unto the wife to teach I permit not, neither to be authoritative over the husband, but to be in quietude. |
|
2:12
for I do not allow a woman to teach, or to be assuming over the man; but let her remain in stillness. |
2:13
For Adam was formed first, then Hava; |
|
2:13
For Adam was first formed, and then Eve. |
2:14
and Adam was not deceived, but the wife was deceived, and transgressed the commandment. |
|
2:14
And Adam was not seduced, but the woman was seduced and transgressed the command. |
2:15
But she is saved by her children, if they continue in faith, and in love, and in sanctification, and in chastity. |
|
2:15
Yet she shall live by means of her children, if they continue in the faith, and in love, and in sanctity, and in chastity. |
