Men and Women in the Church

8 I desire therefore that the men pray ^aeverywhere, ^blifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting;

9 in like manner also, that the ^awomen adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and¹ moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing,

10 ^abut, which is proper for women professing godliness, with good works.

11 Let a woman learn in silence with all submission.

12 And ^aI do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence.
