1 Timothy 2:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 For Kings, and for all that are in authority, [a]that we may lead a quiet and a peaceable life, in all godliness, and [b]honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior.
4 [c]Who will that all men shall be saved, and come unto the acknowledging of the truth.

- 1 Timothy 2:2 An argument taken of the end: to wit, because that magistrates are appointed to this end, that men might peaceably and quietly live in all godliness and honesty, and therefore must we commend them especially to God, that they may faithfully execute so necessary an office.
- 1 Timothy 2:2 This word containeth all kind of duty, which is to be used amongst men in all their affairs.
- 1 Timothy 2:4 Another argument, why Churches or Congregations ought to pray for all men, without any difference of nation, kind, age, or order: to wit, because the Lord by calling of all sorts, yea, sometimes those that are greatest enemies to the Gospel, will have his Church gathered together after this sort, and therefore prayers to be made for all.
