(1) I beseech then first of all things, to make prayers and supplications, intercessions, thanksgivings for all men,	(1) Παρακαλῶ οὖν πρῶτον πάντων ποιεῖσθαι δεήσεις, προσευχάς, ἐντεύξεις, εὐχαριστίας, ὑπὲρ πάντων ἀνθρώπων,

(4) he who wishoth that all men should be saved, and come unto (the) knowing the truth.	(4) ὃς πάντας ἀνθρώπους θέλει σωθῆναι καὶ εἰς ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας ἐλθεῖν.

(9) Thus also the women, being in [a] placid beauty of heart, and [a] reverence and [a] prudence.
