| | 1 | 我劝你第一要为万人恳求祷告，代求，祝谢。
I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone--
| |
| | 2 | 为君王和一切在位的也该如此。使我们可以敬虔端正，平安无事的度日。
for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.
| |
| | 3 | 这是好的，在神我们救主面前可蒙悦纳。
This is good, and pleases God our Savior,
| |
| | 4 | 他愿意万人得救，明白真道。
who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.
| |
| | 5 | 因为只有一位神，在神和人中间，只有一位中保，乃是降世为人的基督耶稣。
For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
| |
| | 6 | 他舍自己作万人的赎价。到了时候，这事必证明出来。
who gave himself as a ransom for all men--the testimony given in its proper time.
| |
| | 7 | 我为此奉派，作传道的，作使徒，作外邦人的师傅，教导他们相信，学习真道。我说的是真话，并不是谎言。
And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle--I am telling the truth, I am not lying--and a teacher of the true faith to the Gentiles.
| |
| | 8 | 我愿男人无忿怒，无争论，（争论或作疑惑），举起圣洁的手，随处祷告。
I want men everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer, without anger or disputing.
| |
| | 9 | 又愿女人廉耻，自守，以正派衣裳为妆饰，不以编发，黄金，珍珠，和贵价的衣裳为妆饰。
I also want women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,
| |
| | 10 | 只要有善行。这才与自称是敬神的女人相宜。
but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God.
| |
| | 11 | 女人要沉静学道，一味地顺服。
A woman should learn in quietness and full submission.
| |
| | 12 | 我不许女人讲道，也不许她辖管男人，只要沉静。
I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.
| |
| | 13 | 因为先造的是亚当，后造的是夏娃。
For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
| |
| | 14 | 且不是亚当被引诱，乃是女人被引诱，陷在罪里。
And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.
| |
| | 15 | 然而女人若常存信心爱心，又圣洁自守，就必在生产上得救。
But women will be saved through childbearing--if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.
