Read the Bible

¹ First of all, then, I counsel that petitions, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings be made for all human beings, ² including kings and all in positions of prominence; so that we may lead quiet and peaceful lives, being godly and upright in everything. ³ This is what God, our Deliverer, regards as good; this is what meets his approval.

⁴ He wants all humanity to be delivered and come to full knowledge of the truth. ⁵ For God is one;^[a] and there is but one Mediator between God and humanity, Yeshua the Messiah, himself human, ⁶ who gave himself as a ransom on behalf of all, thus providing testimony to God's purpose at just the right time. ⁷ This is why I myself was appointed a proclaimer, even an emissary — I am telling the truth, not lying! — a trustworthy and truthful teacher of the Goyim.

⁸ Therefore, it is my wish that when the men pray, no matter where, they should lift up hands that are holy — they should not become angry or get into arguments.

⁹ Likewise, the women, when they pray, should be dressed modestly and sensibly in respectable attire, not with elaborate hairstyles and gold jewelry, or pearls, or expensive clothes. ¹⁰ Rather, they should adorn themselves with what is appropriate for women who claim to be worshipping God, namely, good deeds.

¹¹ Let a woman learn in peace, fully submitted; ¹² but I do not permit a woman to teach a man or exercise authority over him; rather, she is to remain at peace. ¹³ For Adam was formed first, then Havah. ¹⁴ Also it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman who, on being deceived, became involved in the transgression. ¹⁵ Nevertheless, the woman will be delivered through childbearing, provided that she continues trusting, loving and living a holy life with modesty.
