1 Peter 3 : 1 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

beholding your chaste behavior coupled with fear.

1 Peter 3 : 3 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

Finally, be ye all likeminded, compassionate, loving as brethren, tenderhearted, humbleminded:

1 Peter 3 : 9 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

And let him turn away from evil, and do good; Let him seek peace, and pursue it.

1 Peter 3 : 12 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

And who is he that will harm you, if ye be zealous of that which is good?

1 Peter 3 : 14 (ASV)

But even if ye should suffer for righteousness sake, blessed are ye: and fear not their fear, neither be troubled;

1 Peter 3 : 15 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

in which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison,

1 Peter 3 : 20 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

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 (ASV)

who is one the right hand of God, having gone into heaven; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
