1 Timothy 2:9-15 - Instructions For Women

9 And that women may be dressed in simple clothing, with a quiet and serious air; not with twisted hair and gold or jewels or robes of great price; 10 But clothed with good works, as is right for women who are living in the fear of God. 11 Let a woman quietly take the place of a learner and be under authority. 12 In my opinion it is right for a woman not to be a teacher, or to have rule over a man, but to be quiet. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve; 14 And Adam was not taken by deceit, but the woman, being tricked, became a wrongdoer. 15 But if they go on in faith and love and holy self-control, she will be kept safe at the time of childbirth.
