1 Timothy 2:9-14
New American Standard Bible
9 Likewise, I want (A)women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, [a]modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or expensive apparel, 10 but rather by means of good works, as is proper for women making a claim to godliness. 11 (B)A woman must quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness. 12 (C)But I do not allow a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. 13 (D)For it was Adam who was first [b]created, and then Eve. 14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but (E)the woman was [c]deceived and [d]became a wrongdoer.

New International Version
9 I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,(A) 10 but with good deeds,(B) appropriate for women who profess to worship God.
11 A woman[a] should learn in quietness and full submission.(C) 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man;[b] she must be quiet.(D) 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve.(E) 14 And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.(F)
