1 Likewise 3668, ye wives 1135, be in subjection 5293 to your own 2398 husbands 435; that 2443, if any 1536 obey not 544 the word 3056, they 2770 0 also 2532 may 2770 0 without 427 the word 3056 be won 2770 by 1223 the conversation 391 of the wives 1135;
2 While they behold 2029 your 5216 chaste 53 conversation 391 coupled with 1722 fear 5401.
3 Whose 3739 adorning 2889 let it 2077 0 not 3756 be 2077 that outward 1855 adorning of plaiting 1708 the hair 2359, and 2532 of wearing 4025 of gold 5553, or 2228 of putting on 1745 of apparel 2440;
4 But 235 let it be the hidden 2927 man 444 of the heart 2588, in 1722 that which is not corruptible 862, even the ornament of a meek 4239 and 2532 quiet 2272 spirit 4151, which 3739 is 2076 in the sight 1799 of God 2316 of great price 4185.
5 For 1063 after this manner 3779 in the old time 4218 the holy 40 women 1135 also 2532, who 3588 trusted 1679 in 1909 God 2316, adorned 2885 themselves 1438, being in subjection 5293 unto their own 2398 husbands 435:
6 Even as 5613 Sara 4564 obeyed 5219 Abraham 11, calling 2564 him 846 lord 2962: whose 3739 daughters 5043 ye are 1096, as long as ye do well 15, and 2532 are 5399 0 not 3361 afraid 5399 with any 3367 amazement 4423.
7 Likewise 3668, ye husbands 435, dwell with 4924 them according to 2596 knowledge 1108, giving 632 honour 5092 unto the wife 1134, as 5613 unto the weaker 772 vessel 4632, and 2532 as 5613 being heirs together 4789 of the grace 5485 of life 2222; that 1519 your 5216 prayers 4335 be 1581 0 not 3361 hindered 1581.
8 Finally 1161 5056, be ye all 3956 of one mind 3675, having compassion one of another 4835, love as brethren 5361, be pitiful 2155, be courteous 5391:
9 Not 3361 rendering 591 evil 2556 for 473 evil 2556, or 2228 railing 3059 for 473 railing 3059: but 1161 contrariwise 5121 blessing 2129; knowing 1492 that 3754 ye are 2564 0 thereunto 1519 5124 called 2564, that 2443 ye should inherit 2816 a blessing 2127.
10 For 1063 he that will 2309 love 25 life 2222, and 2532 see 1492 good 18 days 2250, let him refrain 3973 his 848 tongue 1100 from 575 evil 2556, and 2532 his 848 lips 5491 that they speak 2980 no 3361 guile 1388:
11 Let him eschew 1578 575 evil 2556, and 2532 do 4160 good 18; let him seek 2212 peace 1515, and 2532 ensue 1377 it 846.
12 For 3754 the eyes 3788 of the Lord 2962 are over 1909 the righteous 1342, and 2532 his 846 ears 3775 are open unto 1519 their 846 prayers 1162: but 1161 the face 4383 of the Lord 2962 is against 1909 them that do 4160 evil 2556.
13 And 2532 who 5101 is he that will harm 2559 you 5209, if 1437 ye be 1096 followers 3402 of that which is good 18?
14 But 235 and if 1499 ye suffer 3958 for 1223 righteousness' sake 1343, happy 3107 are ye: and 1161 be 5399 0 not 3361 afraid 5399 of their 846 terror 5401, neither 3366 be troubled 5015;
15 But 1161 sanctify 37 the Lord 2962 God 2316 in 1722 your 5216 hearts 2588: and 1161 be ready 2092 always 104 to 4314 give an answer 627 to every man 3956 that asketh 154 you 5209 a reason 3056 of 4012 the hope 1680 that is in 1722 you 5213 with 3326 meekness 4240 and 2532 fear 5401:
16 Having 2192 a good 18 conscience 4893; that 2443, whereas 1722 3739 they speak evil 2635 of you 5216, as 5613 of evildoers 2555, they may be ashamed 2617 that falsely accuse 1908 your 5216 good 18 conversation 391 in 1722 Christ 5547.
17 For 1063 it is better 2909, if 1487 the will 2307 of God 2316 be so 2309, that ye suffer 3958 for well doing 15, than 2228 for evil doing 2554.
18 For 3754 Christ 5547 also 2532 hath once 530 suffered 3958 for 4012 sins 266, the just 1342 for 5228 the unjust 94, that 2443 he might bring 4317 us 2248 to God 2316, being put to death 2289 3303 in the flesh 4561, but 1161 quickened 2227 by the Spirit 4151:
19 By 1722 which 3739 also 2532 he went 4198 and preached 2784 unto the spirits 4151 in 1722 prison 5438;
20 Which sometime 4218 were disobedient 544, when 3753 once 530 the longsuffering 3115 of God 2316 waited 1551 in 1722 the days 2250 of Noah 3575, while the ark 2787 was a preparing 2680, wherein 1519 3739 few 3641, that is 5123, eight 3638 souls 5590 were saved 1295 by 1223 water 5204.
21 The like figure 499 whereunto 3739 even baptism 908 doth 4982 0 also 2532 now 3568 save 4982 us 2248 (not 3756 the putting away 595 of the filth 4509 of the flesh 4561, but 235 the answer 1906 of a good 18 conscience 4893 toward 1519 God 2316,) by 1223 the resurrection 386 of Jesus 2424 Christ 5547:
22 Who 3739 is gone 4198 into 1519 heaven 3772, and is 2076 on 1722 the right hand 1188 of God 2316; angels 32 and 2532 authorities 1849 and 2532 powers 1411 being made subject 5293 unto him 846.
