5For there is one God, one mediator also between God and men, [himself] man, Christ Jesus,

6who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony [to be borne] in its own times;

7whereunto I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth, I lie not), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

8I desire therefore that the men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and disputing.

9In like manner, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefastness and sobriety; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly raiment;

10but (which becometh women professing godliness) through good works.

11Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.
