1 Peter 3:1-7
1In like mannerG391, ye wivesG1135, bein subjectionG5293 to your ownG2398 husbandsG435; that, evenG2532 if any obey not the wordG3056, they may without the wordG3056 be gainedG2770 by the behavior of their wivesG1135; 2beholding your chaste behaviorcoupledwith fearG5401. 3Whoseadorninglet it not beG1510 the outward adorning of braiding the hairG2359, and of wearing jewels of goldG5553, or of putting on apparel; 4but let it beG1510 the hidden manG444 of the heartG2588, in the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quietG2272 spiritG4151, which isG1510 in the sight of GodG2316 of great price. 5For after this mannerG3779 aforetime the holyG40 womenG1135 alsoG2532, who hopedG1679 in GodG2316, adornedG2885 themselves, being in subjectionG5293 to their ownG2398 husbandsG435: 6as SarahG4564 obeyedG5219 AbrahamG11, callingG2564 him lordG2962: whose childrenG5043 ye now are, if ye do well, and are not put in fearG5399 by any terror.
7Ye husbandsG435, in like manner, dwell withyour wivesaccordingG2596 to knowledgeG1108, giving honorG5092 unto the woman, as unto the weakerG772 vesselG4632, as being alsoG2532 joint-heirs of the graceG5485 of lifeG2222; to the end that your prayersG4335 be not hinderedG1465.
