1 Peter 3:1-5

11In the sameG3668 wayG3668, you wivesG1135, 2be submissiveG5293 to your ownG2398 husbandsG435 soG2443 that evenG2532 ifG1487 anyG5100 of them are disobedientG544 to the wordG3056, they may be 3wonG2770 withoutG427 a wordG3056 by the behaviorG391 of their wivesG1135,

35Your adornmentG2889 must not be merely externalG1855--braidingG1708 the hairG2359, and wearingG4025 goldG5553 jewelryG5553, orG2228 puttingG1745 on dressesG2440;

4but let it be 6the hiddenG2927 personG444 of the heartG2588, with the imperishableG862 qualityG862 of a gentleG4239 and quietG2272 spiritG4151, whichG3739 is preciousG4185 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316.
