1 Timothy 2:9-15

9 likewise also ^athat women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, 10 ^bbut with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works. 11 Let a woman learn quietly ^cwith all submissiveness. 12 ^dI do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. 13 ^eFor Adam was formed first, ^fthen Eve; 14 and Adam was not deceived, but ^gthe woman was deceived and became a transgressor. 15 Yet she will be saved through ^hchildbearing—if they continue in ⁱfaith and love and holiness, with self-control.

Qualifications for Overseers

1 The saying is ^jtrustworthy: If anyone aspires to ^kthe office of overseer, he desires a noble task. 2 Therefore ^lan overseer ^{▼▼Or bishop; Greek episkopos; a similar term occurs in verse 1} must be above reproach, ⁿthe husband of one wife, ^{▼▼Or a man of one woman; also verse 12} ^psober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, ^qhospitable, ^rable to teach, 3 not a drunkard, not violent but ^sgentle, not quarrelsome, ^tnot a lover of money. 4 He must manage his own household well, with all dignity ^ukeeping his children submissive, 5 for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for ^vGod’s church? 6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may ^wbecome puffed up with conceit and fall into the condemnation of the devil. 7 Moreover, he must be well thought of by ^xoutsiders, so that he may not fall into disgrace, into ^ya snare of the devil.

1 Timothy 6:1-2

1 ^zLet all who are under a yoke as bondservants ^{▼▼Or slaves (for the contextual rendering of the Greek word doulos, see Preface)} regard their own masters as worthy of all honor, ^abso that the name of God and the teaching may not be reviled. 2 Those who have believing masters must not be disrespectful on the ground that they are ^acbrothers; rather they must serve all the better since those who benefit by their good service are believers and beloved.
