31 Peter 3

1In like manner also, let wives be subject to their husbands: that, if any believe not the word, they may be won without the word, by the conversation of the wives,Select 1 Peter 3:1

2Considering your chaste conversation with fear.Select 1 Peter 3:2

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

4But the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptibility of a quiet and a meek spirit which is rich in the sight of God.Select 1 Peter 3:4

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

6As Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters you are, doing well and not fearing any disturbance.Select 1 Peter 3:6

7Ye husbands, likewise dwelling with them according to knowledge, giving honour to the female as to the weaker vessel and as to the co-heirs of the grace of life: that your prayers be not hindered.Select 1 Peter 3:7

8And in fine, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, being lovers of the brotherhood, merciful, modest, humble:Select 1 Peter 3:8

9Not rendering evil for evil, nor railing for railing, but contrariwise, blessing: for unto this are you called, that you may inherit a blessing.Select 1 Peter 3:9

10For he that will love life and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile.Select 1 Peter 3:10

11Let him decline from evil and do good: Let him seek after peace and pursue it:Select 1 Peter 3:11

12Because the eyes of the Lord are upon the just, and his ears unto their prayers but the countenance of the Lord upon them that do evil things.Select 1 Peter 3:12

13And who is he that can hurt you, if you be zealous of good?Select 1 Peter 3:13

14But if also you suffer any thing for justice' sake, blessed are ye. And be not afraid of their fear: and be not troubled.Select 1 Peter 3:14

15But sanctify the Lord Christ in your hearts, being ready always to satisfy every one that asketh you a reason of that hope which is in you.Select 1 Peter 3:15

16But with modesty and fear, having a good conscience: that whereas they speak evil of you, they may be ashamed who falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.Select 1 Peter 3:16

17For it is better doing well (if such be the will of God) to suffer than doing ill.Select 1 Peter 3:17

18Because Christ also died once for our sins, the just for the unjust: that he might offer us to God, being put to death indeed in the flesh, but enlivened in the spirit,Select 1 Peter 3:18

19In which also coming he preached to those spirits that were in prison:Select 1 Peter 3:19

20Which had been some time incredulous, when they waited for the patience of God in the days of Noe, when the ark was a building: wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water.Select 1 Peter 3:20

21Whereunto baptism, being of the like form, now saveth you also: not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but, the examination of a good conscience towards God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.Select 1 Peter 3:21

22Who is on the right hand of God, swallowing down death that we might be made heirs of life everlasting: being gone into heaven, the angels and powers and virtues being made subject to him.Select 1 Peter 3:22
