| [1]I REQUIREⓘ then from thee, that, before every thing supplication be offered to Aloha, and prayer and intercession and thanksgiving for all men; |
[No book] |
| [2]For kings and princes,ⓘ that an habitation quiet and tranquil we may inhabit in all the fear of Aloha and purity. |
[No book] |
| [3]For this is good and acceptable before Aloha our Saviour; |
[No book] |
| [4]Who willeth that all men should be saved, and turn to the knowledge of the truth. |
[No book] |
| [5]For one is Aloha, and one is the Mediator of Aloha and of men; the man Jeshu Meshiha, |
[No book] |
| [6]Who gave himself a ransom for every man; a testimony which cometh in its time, |
[No book] |
| [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. |
[No book] |
| [8]I wish then for men to pray in every place, uplifting their hands purely and without wrath and without disputations. |
[No book] |
| [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, |
[No book] |
| [10]But with good works, as becometh women who profess the fear of Aloha. |
[No book] |
| [11]Let the wife in quietude learn with all submission: |
[No book] |
| [12]For unto the wife to teachⓘ I permit not, neither to be authoritativeⓘ over the husband, but to be in quietude. |
[No book] |
| [13]For Adam was formed first, then Hava; |
[No book] |
| [14]And Adam was not deceived, but the wife was deceived, and transgressed the commandment. |
[No book] |
| [15]But she is saved by her children, if they continue in faith, and in love, and in sanctification, and in chastity. |
