1PE-3:1 Likewise, ye wives, [be] in subjection to your own
husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without
the
word be won by the conversation of the wives;
1PE-3:2 While they behold your chaste conversation [coupled]
with
fear.
1PE-3:3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward [adorning] of
plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of
apparel;
1PE-3:4 But [let it be] the hidden man of the heart, in that
which
is not corruptible, [even the ornament] of a meek and quiet
spirit,
which is in the sight of God of great price.
1PE-3:5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women
also,
who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto
their own husbands:
1PE-3:6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose
daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with
any
amazement.
1PE-3:7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with [them] according to
knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker
vessel,
and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your
prayers
be not hindered.
1PE-3:8 Finally, [be ye] all of one mind, having compassion one
of
another, love as brethren, [be] pitiful, [be] courteous:
1PE-3:9 Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but
contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called,
that ye
should inherit a blessing.
1PE-3:10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him
refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no
guile:
1PE-3:11 Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace,
and
ensue it.
1PE-3:12 For the eyes of the Lord [are] over the righteous, and
his
ears [are open] unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord [is]
against them that do evil.
1PE-3:13 And who [is] he that will harm you, if ye be followers
of
that which is good?
1PE-3:14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy
[are
ye]: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
1PE-3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and [be]
ready
always to [give] an answer to every man that asketh you a reason
of
the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
1PE-3:16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak
evil of
you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse
your
good conversation in Christ.
1PE-3:17 For [it is] better, if the will of God be so, that ye
suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.
1PE-3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just
for
the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in
the
flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
1PE-3:19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in
prison;
1PE-3:20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the
longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark
was a
preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.
1PE-3:21 The like figure whereunto [even] baptism doth also now
save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the
answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of
Jesus Christ:
1PE-3:22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of
God;
angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
