1 Timothy 2:9 in Context — 1 Timothy 2
7 De lo que yo soy puesto por predicador y apóstol, (digo verdad en Cristo, no miento) doctor de los Gentiles en fidelidad y verdad.
8 Quiero, pues, que los hombres oren en todo lugar, levantando manos limpias, sin ira ni contienda.
9 Asimismo también las mujeres, ataviándose en hábito honesto, con vergüenza y modestia; no con cabellos encrespados, ú oro, ó perlas, ó vestidos costosos,
10 Sino de buenas obras, como conviene á mujeres que profesan piedad.
11 La mujer aprenda en silencio, con toda sujeción.
