¹Lomo' -lomo' -na, mohawa' -a bona hawe'ea topetuku' Pue' Yesus mosampaya, mpobua' pekakae, pomperapia' pai' pontarima kasi-ta hi Alata'ala. Mosampaya-ta mposampayai hawe'ea tauna,

¹I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings be made for all men;

²mposampayai magau' duu' -na hawe'ea topoparenta. Kana taposampayai-ra, bona rodo-hawo katuwu' -ta pai' neo' -tawo ria to mpobalinai' -ta, bona mologa-ta mepue' hi Alata'ala pai' mpobabehi oa' gau' to natao rabila' doo.

²for kings and all that are in dignity, that we may lead a quiet and tranquil life in all piety and gravity;

³Posampaya to hewa toe-mi to lompe', pai' to napokono Alata'ala, Magau' Tompohore-ta ngkai huku' jeko' -ta.

³for this is good and acceptable before our Saviour God,

⁴Apa' konoa-na bona hawe'ea tauna tehore ngkai huku' jeko' -ra, pai' -ra mpo'inca tudui' to makono.

⁴who desires that all men should be saved and come to [the] knowledge of [the] truth.

⁵Hadua lau-wadi Alata'ala, pai' hadua wo'o-wadi Tauntongo' to mpopohintuwu' Alata'ala hante manusia'. Tauntongo' toei, manusia' wo'o-i-hawo, Hi'a-mi Kristus Yesus.

⁵For God is one, and [the] mediator of God and men one, [the] man Christ Jesus,

⁶Napewai' woto-na rapatehi bona mpotolo' hawe'ea manusia'. Nababehi toe hi tempo to napakatantu Alata'ala, bona monoto-mi tahilo konoa Alata'ala bona hawe'ea manusia' tehore ngkai huku' jeko' -ra.

⁶who gave himself a ransom for all, the testimony [to be rendered] in its own times;

⁷Toe pai' na'ongko' -ama Alata'ala jadi' suro-na. Nahubui-a mpopalele kareba toe hi tauna to bela-ra to Yahudi. Nahubui-a mpotudui' -ra tudui' to makono, bona mepangala' -ra hi Yesus. Makono to ku'uli' toe, uma-a boa'.

⁷to which *I* have been appointed a herald and apostle, (I speak [the] truth, I do not lie,) a teacher of [the] nations in faith and truth.

⁸Konoa-ku, bona butu ngkani mogampara, tomane-tomane mpo'ongko' pale-ra mosampaya. Aga kana to moroli' gau' -ra, uma-hawo natao ane mosampaya-ra bula-ra moroe pai' momehono'.

⁸I will therefore that the men pray in every place, lifting up pious hands, without wrath or reasoning.

⁹Wae wo'o-hawo tobine. Tobine kana mpopake' pohea to natao, ntuku' ada to lompe'. Neo' mpenasa pohea-ra bona ra'une' doo, neo' mpopenyala wuluwoo', neo' mporampai woto hante bulawa ba mutiara pai' pohea-pohea to masuli' oli-na.

⁹In like manner also that the women in decent deportment and dress adorn themselves with modesty and discretion, not with plaited [hair] and gold, or pearls, or costly clothing,

¹⁰Agina tobine ra'une' sabana po'ingku-ra to lompe', hewa to natao hi tobine to mengkoru hi Alata'ala.

¹⁰but, what becomes women making profession of the fear of God, by good works.

¹¹Tobine kana mengkalino mpe'epei tudui' hante nono to dingki'.

¹¹Let a woman learn in quietness in all subjection;

¹²Uma kupiliu tobine mpotudui' ba mpohawai' tomane. Kana mengkalino-ra mpe'epei-wadi.

¹²but I do not suffer a woman to teach nor to exercise authority over man, but to be in quietness;

¹³Apa' to lomo' -na napajadi' Alata'ala, Adam, pai' lako' Hawa.

¹³for Adam was formed first, then Eve:

¹⁴Pai' bela Adam to nabagiu Magau' Anudaa', Hawa-hana to rabagiu, pai' alaa-na mpotiboki-i parenta Alata'ala.

¹⁴and Adam was not deceived; but the woman, having been deceived, was in transgression.

¹⁵Toe pai' tobine mpotodohaka kaparia hi po'ana' -ra. Aga nau' wae, mporata moto-ra kalompea' ane tida-ra mepangala' hi Pue', tida mpoka'ahi' doo, pai' tuwu' moroli' ntuku' ada to lompe'.

¹⁵But she shall be preserved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and love and holiness with discretion.
