I Timothy 2 Comparison: Geneva Bible 1599 vs King James Version

I Timothy 2

¹I Exhort therefore, that first of all supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giuing of thanks be made for all men,

²For Kings, and for all that are in authoritie, that we may leade a quiet and a peaceable life, in all godlinesse and honestie.

³For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Sauiour,

⁴Who will that all men shalbe saued, and come vnto the acknowledging of the trueth.

⁵For there is one God, and one Mediatour betweene God and man, which is the man Christ Iesus,

⁶Who gaue himselfe a ransome for all men, to be that testimonie in due time,

⁷Whereunto I am ordeined a preacher and an Apostle (I speake the trueth in Christ, and lie not) euen a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and veritie.

⁸I will therefore that the men pray, euery where lifting vp pure hands without wrath, or douting.

⁹Likewise also the women, that they aray themselues in comely apparell, with shamefastnes and modestie, not with broyded heare, or gold, or pearles, or costly apparell,

¹⁰But (as becommeth women that professe the feare of God) with good workes.

¹¹Let the woman learne in silence with all subiection.

¹²I permit not a woman to teache, neither to vsurpe authoritie ouer the man, but to be in silence.

¹³For Adam was first formed, then Eue.

¹⁴And Adam was not deceiued, but the woman was deceiued, and was in the transgression.

¹⁵Notwithstanding, through bearing of children she shalbe saued if they continue in faith, and loue, and holines with modestie.

I Timothy 2

¹I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

²For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

³For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

⁴Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

⁵For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

⁶Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

⁷Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.

⁸I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

⁹In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

¹⁰But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.

¹¹Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

¹²But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

¹³For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

¹⁴And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

¹⁵Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
