Start reading

3Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;Select 1 Peter 3:3

4But 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.Select 1 Peter 3:4

5For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:Select 1 Peter 3:5

6Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.Select 1 Peter 3:6

7Likewise, 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.Select 1 Peter 3:7
