1 Timothy 2:1-7
Pray for All People
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, 2 afor kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and bdignified in every way. 3 This is good, and ait is pleasing in the sight of bGod our Savior, 4 who desires aall people to be saved and bto come to cthe knowledge of the truth. 5 For athere is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 6 awho gave himself as a ransom for all, which is bthe testimony given cat the proper time. 7 aFor this I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (bI am telling the truth, I am not lying), ca teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
