1 Timothy 2:6-13 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

6. who gave himself as a redemption for all, as a testimony in its proper time.

7. Of this testimony, I have been appointed a preacher and an Apostle, (I speak the truth, I do not lie) as a teacher of the Gentiles, in faith and in truth.

8. Therefore, I want men to pray in every place, lifting up pure hands, without anger or dissension.

9. Similarly also, women should be dressed fittingly, adorning themselves with compunction and restraint, and not with plaited hair, nor gold, nor pearls, nor costly attire,

10. but in a manner proper for women who are professing piety by means of good works.

11. Let a woman learn in silence with all subjection.

12. For I do not permit a woman to teach, nor to be in authority over a man, but to be in silence.

13. For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
