1 Timothy 2:9-15

9likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire,

10but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works.

11Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness.

12I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.

13For Adam was formed first, then Eve;

14and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.

15Yet she will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control.
