I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

who is willing that all men should be saved, and therefore come to the knowledge of the truth.

I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

The bishop therefore must be without reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, orderly, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

He must also have a good reputation among outsiders [i.e., non-Christians], or else he could fall into reproach [i.e., from worldly people] and [therefore] into the devil's trap.

For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

and will therefore receive condemnation because they have renounced their original pledge.

I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.

as we brought nothing into the world, certain it is, we can carry nothing away. having therefore food and raiment,

having therefore food and raiment, let us be herewith content.
