1 Timothy 2:1-8

1I exhortG3870 thereforeG3767, firstG4413 of all, that supplications, prayersG4335, intercessions, thanksgivingsG2169 be madeG4160 for all menG444;

2for kingsG935 and all that areG1510 in dignityG4587, that we may lead a quietG2272 and tranquil lifeG979 in all piety and gravity;

3for this is goodG2570 and acceptable before our Saviour 1GodG2316,

4who desiresG2309 that all menG444 should be savedG4982 and comeG2064 to [the] knowledgeG1922 of [the] truthG225.

5For 2GodG2316 is oneG1520, and [the] mediatorG3316 of 3GodG2316 and menG444 oneG1520, [the] manG444 ChristG5547 JesusG2424,

6who gaveG1325 himself a ransom for all, the testimonyG3142 [to be rendered] in its ownG2398 timesG2540;

7to which I have been appointedG5087 a herald and apostleG652, (I speakG3004 [the] truthG225, I do not lieG5574,) a teacherG1320 of [the] nationsG1484 in faithG4102 and truthG225.

8I will thereforeG3767 that the menG435 prayG4336 in every placeG5117, liftingG1869 up pious handsG5495, without wrathG3709 or reasoning.
