1. I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all men;
2. for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and gravity.
3. This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4. who willeth that all men should be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth.
