1|Pet.|3:1|-|In |1|like manner, |a|wives, be subject to your own husbands, that even if any disobey the |2|word, they will be gained without the |2|word through the manner of life of their |b|wives,
1|Pet.|3:2|-|Seeing with their own eyes your |1|pure manner of life |2|in |3a|fear.
1|Pet.|3:3|-|Let your |a|adorning not be the outward |1|plaiting of hair and putting on of |b|gold or clothing with garments,
1|Pet.|3:4|-|But the |1|hidden man of the |a|heart in the incorruptible adornment of a meek and quiet |b|spirit, which is very |c|costly in the sight of God.
1|Pet.|3:5|-|For in this manner formerly the holy women also, who |a|hoped in God, adorned themselves, being |b|subject to their own husbands,
1|Pet.|3:6|-|As Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him |a|lord; whose children you have become, if you do good and do not |b|fear any |1|terror.
1|Pet.|3:7|-||a|Husbands, in like manner dwell together with them |1|according to knowledge, as with the |2|weaker, female |3|vessel, |4|assigning |b|honor to them as also to |c|fellow heirs of the |5|grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.
1|Pet.|3:8|-|And finally be all of the |a|same mind, sympathetic, |b|loving the brothers, |c|tenderhearted, |d|humble-minded;
1|Pet.|3:9|-|Not rendering |a|evil for evil or |b|reviling for reviling, but on the contrary |1c|blessing one another, because you were |d|called |2|to this, that you might inherit |e|blessing.
1|Pet.|3:10|-|For |a|“he who desires to love life and see |1|good days, let him cause his |b|tongue to cease from evil and his lips to speak no guile.
1|Pet.|3:11|-|And let him |a|turn away from evil and do good; let him |b|seek peace and pursue it;
1|Pet.|3:12|-|For the |a|eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His |b|ears incline to their petition; but the |c|face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
1|Pet.|3:13|-|And who will harm you if you become zealous for what is |a|good?
1|Pet.|3:14|-|But even if you |a|suffer because of |b|righteousness, you are |c|blessed. And do not be |d|afraid with fear from them, nor be |e|troubled,
1|Pet.|3:15|-|But |1a|sanctify Christ as |b|Lord in your hearts, being always ready for a defense to everyone who asks of you an account concerning the |2c|hope which is in you,
1|Pet.|3:16|-|Yet with |a|meekness and |1b|fear, having a good |2c|conscience, so that in the matter in which you are |d|spoken against, those who |e|revile your good |f|manner of life |3g|in Christ may be put to |h|shame.
1|Pet.|3:17|-|For it is better, if the |a|will of God should will it, to |b|suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
1|Pet.|3:18|-|For Christ also has suffered once for |1|sins, the Righteous |2a|on behalf of the unrighteous, that He might bring you |b|to God, on the one hand being put to death in the flesh, but on the other, made alive in the |3|Spirit;
1|Pet.|3:19|-|In |1|which also He went and |2|proclaimed to the |3|spirits in |4|prison,
1|Pet.|3:20|-||1|Who had formerly disobeyed when the long-suffering of God waited in the days of |a|Noah, while the ark was being prepared; entering into which, a few, that is, eight souls, were |2|brought safely through |3|by |b|water.
1|Pet.|3:21|-||1|Which water, as the antitype, also now saves you, that is, |2|baptism, |3|not a putting away of the filth of the flesh but the |4|appeal of a good |a|conscience unto God, through the |b|resurrection of Jesus Christ,
1|Pet.|3:22|-||1|Who is at the |a|right hand of God, having gone into |b|heaven, |c|angels and |d|authorities and powers being |e|subjected to Him.
