1 Timothy 3:4

3:4 He must manage his own household well and keep his children in control without losing his dignity.

1 Timothy 2:2

2:2 even for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

tn Grk “having children in submission with all dignity.” The last phrase, “keep his children in control without losing his dignity,” may refer to the children rather than the parent: “having children who are obedient and respectful.”

tn For “even for kings” the Greek says simply “for kings.”
