Conduct of Women

2:9 Likewise14 the women are to dress15 in suitable apparel, with modesty and self-control.16 Their adornment must not be17 with braided hair and gold or pearls or expensive clothing, 2:10 but with good deeds, as is proper for women who profess reverence for God. 2:11 A woman must learn18 quietly with all submissiveness. 2:12 But I do not allow19 a woman to teach or exercise authority20 over a man. She must remain quiet.21 2:13 For Adam was formed first and then Eve. 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman, because she was fully deceived,22 fell into transgression.23 2:15 But she will be delivered through childbearing,24 if she25 continues in faith and love and holiness with self-control.
