9The women should dress themselves in a way as to not be a distraction to themselves, the rest of the church, or the community in general. Why worry about braiding your hair or what jewelry you are wearing. 10God is looking at your works, not your clothes, and all will be made beautiful in God's eyes when they follow His commands and do His will. 11Let the women and the uneducated learn in peace, without disturbing those around them. 12No woman or untrained person should teach or have primary instruction over the teaching of those who have already received proper training. 13For Adam was created first, like the men were educated first. Then Eve was made. 14Adam was not deceived first, but Eve was led astray due to her lack of experience and education; Eve then was able to lead Adam into sin. 15But Eve's salvation came through her work of raising her descendants (leading to Jesus), as the women can be saved through the labor of learning, provided the women continue in the ways of God: faith, love, and holiness, without worry of the things of this world.
Look out Eugene! I may have a competitor for you in the paraphrase market!
