Gottes Neue Offenbarungen

The First Epistle of Paul the Apostle to Timothy

Berean Study Bible :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 2 -

1
First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be offered for everyone
2
for kings and all those in authorityso that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity.
3
This is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Savior,
4
who wants everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
5
For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
6
who gave Himself as a ransom for allthe testimony that was given at just the right time.
7
For this reason I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a faithful and true teacher of the Gentiles. I am telling the truth; I am not lying about anything.
8
Therefore I want the men everywhere (a) to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger or dissension.

Instructions to Women

9
Likewise, I want the women to adorn themselves with respectable apparel, with modesty, and with self-control, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,
10
but with good deeds, as is proper for women who profess to worship God.
11
A woman (b) must learn in quietness and full submissiveness.
12
I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man;(c) she is to remain quiet.
13
For Adam was formed first, and then Eve.
14
And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman who was deceived and fell into transgression.
15
Women, however, will be saved through childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.

I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks be made for all men,
2
for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.
3
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
4
who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth.
5
For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
6
who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony at the proper time,
7
to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am telling the truth in Christ, not lyinga teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
8
I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands without anger and doubting.

Instructions to Women

9
In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety, not (a) with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing,
10
but with good works, which is appropriate for women professing godliness.
11
Let a woman learn in quietness with full submission.
12
But I don’t permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.
13
For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
14
Adam wasn’t deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;
15
but she will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and holiness with sobriety.

Fußnoten

(a)2:9 The word for “not” is the negative particle “μη” which denies an expected idea, as opposed to the usual word for “not” (ου) which denies a fact. Thus “μη” in this context is denying an expected idea (that women can be properly dressed without good works).
