1 Peter 3:8-17

8FinallyG5056, beG3956 ye allG3956 likeminded, compassionateG2155, loving asG1161 brethren, tenderhearted, humbleminded:

9notG3361 rendering evilG2556 forG1519 evilG2556, orG2228 reviling forG1519 reviling; butG1161 contrariwise blessingG2129; forG1519 hereunto were ye calledG2564, thatG3754 ye shouldG2443 inheritG2816 a blessingG2129.

10ForG1063, HeG2532 thatG3708 wouldG2309 loveG25 lifeG2222, AndG2532 seeG3708 goodG18 daysG2250, Let himG3708 refrainG3361 hisG3708 tongueG1100 fromG575 evilG2556, AndG2532 hisG3708 lipsG5491 thatG3708 theyG2532 speakG2980 noG3361 guile:

11AndG2532 let himG846 turnG1578 awayG575 fromG575 evilG2556, andG2532 doG4160 goodG18; Let himG846 seekG2212 peaceG1515, andG2532 pursueG1377 itG846.

12ForG1519 theG2532 eyesG3788 ofG2962 theG2532 LordG2962 are uponG1909 theG2532 righteousG1342, AndG2532 hisG846 earsG3775 unto theirG846 supplicationG1162: ButG1161 theG2532 faceG4383 ofG2962 theG2532 LordG2962 is uponG1909 themG846 thatG3754 doG4160 evilG2556.

13AndG2532 whoG3588 is heG2532 thatG1096 willG5101 harmG2559 youG5210, ifG1437 ye beG1096 zealousG2207 ofG3588 thatG1096 whichG5101 is goodG18?

14ButG1161 andG2532 ifG1487 ye shouldG2532 sufferG3958 forG1223 righteousness’ sakeG1223, blessedG3107 are ye: andG2532 fearG5401 notG3361 theirG846 fearG5401, neitherG3366 beG2532 troubledG5015;

15butG1161 sanctifyG37 inG1722 yourG2962 heartsG2588 ChristG5547 asG1722 LordG2962: beingG104 readyG2092 alwaysG104 toG4314 give answerG3056 toG4314 everyG3956 man thatG3956 asketh youG5210 a reasonG3056 concerningG4012 theG3956 hopeG1680 thatG3956 is inG1722 youG5210, yetG2532 withG3326 meeknessG4240 andG2532 fearG5401:

16havingG2192 a goodG18 conscienceG4893; thatG3739, wherein ye are spoken againstG3326, theyG3739 mayG2532 beG2532 put toG2443 shameG2617 whoG3739 revileG1908 yourG2192 goodG18 mannerG391 ofG1722 lifeG391 inG1722 ChristG5547.

17ForG1063 it is betterG2909, ifG1487 theG3588 willG2307 ofG2316 GodG2316 shouldG2316 soG1063 willG2307, thatG2316 ye sufferG3958 forG1063 well-doing thanG2228 forG1063 evil-doing.
