1 Peter 3

1Pe 3:1 Likewise, wives, submitting yourselves to your own husbands, that even if any disobey the Word, through the behavior of the wives, without a word they will be won,
1Pe 3:2 observing your pure behavior in fear.
1Pe 3:3 Of whom let it not be the outward act of braiding of hairs, and of putting gold around, or of clothing, garments of adornment,
1Pe 3:4 but the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of the meek and quiet spirit, which is of great value before God.
1Pe 3:5 For so once indeed the holy women who were hoping on God adorned themselves, submitting themselves to their own husbands,
1Pe 3:6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; whose children you became, doing good, and fearing no terror. Gen. 18:12
1Pe 3:7 Likewise, husbands, dwelling together according to knowledge, as with a weaker vessel, the female, bestowing honor, as truly being co-heirs of the grace of life, not cutting off your prayers.
1Pe 3:8 And, finally, be all of one mind, sympathetic, loving the brothers, tenderhearted, friendly,
1Pe 3:9 not giving back evil for evil, or reviling against reviling; but, on the contrary, give blessing; knowing that you were called to this in order that you might inherit blessing.
1Pe 3:10 “For the one desiring to love life, and to see good days, let him restrain his tongue from evil, even his lips not to speak guile.
1Pe 3:11 Let him turn aside from evil, and let him do good. Let him seek peace, and pursue it;
1Pe 3:12 because the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears open to their prayer. But the face of the Lord is against any doing evil things.” LXX-Psa. 33:13-17; MT-Psa. 34:12-16
1Pe 3:13 And who is the one harming you if you become imitators of the good?
1Pe 3:14 But if you truly suffer because of righteousness, blessed are you. “But do not fear their fear, nor be disturbed.
1Pe 3:15 But sanctify” Isa. 8:12, 13 the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give an answer to everyone asking you a reason concerning the hope in you, with meekness and fear,
1Pe 3:16 having a good conscience, that while they speak against you as evildoers, they may be shamed, those falsely accusing your good behavior in Christ.
1Pe 3:17 For it is better, if the will of God wills it, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
1Pe 3:18 Because even Christ once suffered concerning sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God; indeed being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit;
1Pe 3:19 in which also, going in to the spirits in prison, He then proclaimed
1Pe 3:20 to disobeying ones, when once the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah, an ark having been prepared, into which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.
1Pe 3:21 Which antitype now also saves us, baptism (not a putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God through the resurrection of Jesus Christ;
1Pe 3:22 who going into Heaven is at the right of God, the angels, and authorities, and powers being subjected to Him).
