Instructions To Men And Women

⁷ of which I am ordained a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth in Christ and do not lie), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity. ⁸ Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and dissension. ⁹ In like manner also that the women adorn themselves in an honest manner, with shyness and modesty, not with ostentatious hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing
