1 Timothy 2:2

2:2 even for kings ¹  and all who are in authority, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

1 Timothy 3:15

3:15 in case I am delayed, to let you know how people ought to conduct themselves ²  in the household of God, because it is ³  the church of the living God, the support and bulwark of the truth.

1 Timothy 5:16

5:16 If a believing woman ⁴  has widows in her family, ⁵  let her help them. The church should not be burdened, so that it may help the widows who are truly in need. ⁶ 

1 Timothy 6:16

6:16 He alone possesses immortality and lives in unapproachable light, whom no human has ever seen or is able to see. To him be honor and eternal power! Amen.

[2:2]  ¹ tn For “even for kings” the Greek says simply “for kings.”

[3:15]  ² tn Grk “how it is necessary to behave.”

[3:15]  ³ tn Grk “which is” (but the relative clause shows the reason for such conduct).

[5:16]  ³ tc Most witnesses (D Ψ Ï sy) have πιστὸς ἤ (pisto" h) before πιστή (pisth), with the resultant meaning “if a believing man or woman.” But such looks to be a motivated reading, perhaps to bring some parity to the responsibilities of men and women listed here, and as a way of harmonizing with v. 4. Further, most of the earliest and best witnesses (א A C F G P 048 33 81 1175 1739 1881 co) lack the πιστὸς ἤ, strengthening the preference for the shorter reading.

[5:16]  ⁴ tn Grk “has widows.”

[5:16]  ⁵ tn Grk “the real widows,” “those who are really widows.”
