NET

14 So I want younger women to marry, raise children, and manage a household, in order to give the adversary no opportunity to vilify us.

Darby

14 I will therefore that the younger marry, bear children, rule the house, give no occasion to the adversary in respect^D8879 of reproach.

Darby Bible Notes

respect - Or 'by reason of.' The sense is, the favour borne to anything; sometimes it is an object, sometimes a pleasing motive. The adversary found in the reproach a motive to exercise his hostility. As to 'adversary,' the habit of Paul is to speak thus of Satan directly when acting through men, because he knew the activity of the adversary, and the part he takes in such matters. To such an adversary reproach is a favoured, accepted motive.

KJV

14 I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully^K7120.

KJV Bible Notes

to speak reproachfully: Gr. for their railing.
