1 Peter 3:1
|
|
In like manner, ye wives, be in subjection to
your won husbands; that, even if any obey not the word, they may without the word
be gained by the behavior of their wives; |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:2
|
|
beholding your chaste behavior coupled with
fear. |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:3
|
|
Whose adorning let it not be the outward adorning
of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on apparel; |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:4
|
|
but
let it be the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible apparel of a meek
and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:5
|
|
For after this manner aforetime the holy women
also, who hoped in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:
|
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:6
|
|
as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose
children ye now are, if ye do well, and are not put in fear by any terror. |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:7
|
|
Ye husbands, in like manner, dwell with your
wives according to knowledge, giving honor unto the woman, as unto the weaker
vessel, as being also joint-heirs of the grace of life; to the end that your prayers
be not hindered. |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:8
|
|
Finally, be ye all likeminded, compassionate,
loving as brethren, tenderhearted, humbleminded: |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:9
|
|
not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for
reviling; but contrariwise blessing; for hereunto were ye called, that ye should
inherit a blessing. |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:10
|
|
For, He that would love life, And see good days,
Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips that they speak no guile: |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:11
|
|
And let him turn away from evil, and do good;
Let him seek peace, and pursue it. |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:12
|
|
For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous,
And his ears unto their supplication: But the face of the Lord is upon them that
do evil. |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:13
|
|
And who is he that will harm you, if ye be zealous
of that which is good? |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:14
|
|
But even if ye should suffer for righteousness'
sake, blessed are ye: and fear not their fear, neither be troubled; |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:15
|
|
but sanctify in your hearts Christ as Lord:
being ready always to give answer to every man that asketh you a reason concerning
the hope that is in you, yet with meekness and fear: |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:16
|
|
having a good conscience; that, wherein ye are
spoken against, they may be put to shame who revile your good manner of life in
Christ. |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:17
|
|
For it is better, if the will of God should
so will, that ye suffer for well-doing than for evil-doing. |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:18
|
|
Because Christ also suffered for sins once,
the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God; being put to
death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit; |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:19
|
|
in which also he went and preached unto the
spirits in prison, |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:20
|
|
that aforetime were disobedient, when the longsuffering
of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few,
that is, eight souls, were saved through water: |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:21
|
|
which also after a true likeness doth now save
you, even baptism, not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the interrogation
of a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ; |
|
|
|
1 Peter 3:22
|
|
who is one the right hand of God, having gone
into heaven; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him. |
