1 Timothy 2:7-11 New Century Version (NCV)

7. That is why I was chosen to tell the Good News and to be an apostle. (I am telling the truth; I am not lying.) I was chosen to teach those who are not Jews to believe and to know the truth.

8. So, I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up their hands in a holy manner, without anger and arguments.

9. Also, women should wear proper clothes that show respect and self-control, not using braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes.

10. Instead, they should do good deeds, which is right for women who say they worship God.

11. Let a woman learn by listening quietly and being ready to cooperate in everything.
