| [1]I Exhort therefore, that first of all supplications, prayers, intercessions and giving of thanks be made for all men, |

| [7]Whereunto I am ordained a preacher and an Apostle (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not) even a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity. |
[7]For that testimony I was appointed a preacher and an apostle; I tell the truth and I lie not; and I became the teacher of the Gentiles in a true faith. |
| [8]I will therefore that the men pray, everywhere lifting up pure hands without wrath, or doubting. |

| [9]Likewise also the women, that they array themselves in comely apparel, with shamefacedness and modesty, not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly apparel, |
[9]In like manner also, let the apparel of women be simple and their adornment be modest and refined; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; |

[14]And Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and she transgressed the law. |
| [15]Notwithstanding, through bearing of children she shall be saved if they continue in faith, and love, and holiness with modesty. |
[15]Nevertheless, if her posterity continue in faith and have holiness and chastity, she will live, through them. |
