| 1 | First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, |
| 2 | for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life, godly and respectful in every way. |
| 3 | This is good, and it is acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, |
| 4 | who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. |
