1 Timothy 2:8 in context

  1. 6who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony in its own times,
  2. 7to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am telling the truth in Christ, not lying—a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
  3. 8I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands without anger and doubting.
  4. 9In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety, not just with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing,
  5. 10but with good works, which is appropriate for women professing godliness.
