# General Information:
"who want to honor God by the good things they do"
Possible meanings of this verse are 1) the words "through good works" tell how the women Paul is talking about "proclaim godliness" or 2) those words tell how women are to "dress," a metaphor that refers to what people are to see and think about when they look at the women to whom Paul is writing. Alternate translation: "but with good works, as is proper for women who proclaim godliness" ([1 Timothy 2:9](../02/09.md)). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
# who proclaim godliness through good works
