1 First of all then, I am urging that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be offered regularly for all men;
2 for kings and all who are in authority, in order that we may lead a tranquil and peaceful life in all godliness an gravity.

16 Therefore do not let what is right, so far as you are concerned, be evil spoken of.
4 For everything that God has created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if only it is received with thankfulness.
5 For it is sanctified by the Word of God and by prayer.
2 And be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
