1 Timothy 2:1-3

New Matthew Bible

He exhorts to pray for all people. He will not have women in showy attire, nor to teach in the congregation, but to be in silence and to obey their husbands.

2 I exhort therefore that, above all things, prayers, supplications, intercessions, and giving of thanks be had for all people, ² for kings and for all that are in authority, that we may live a quiet and a peaceable life in all godliness and sanctity. ³ For that is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Saviour,
