1 Peter 2:18-23

18Slaves, with all respect submit yourselves to your masters—not only to those who are good and gentle, but also to those who are harsh.

19For this finds favor if, for the sake of conscience toward God, someone endures grief from suffering undeservedly.

20For what credit is there if, when you sin and get a beating, you endure? But if you endure when you do good and suffer for it, this finds favor with God.

21For you were called to this, because Messiah also suffered for you, leaving you an example so that you might follow in His footsteps:

22“He committed no sin, nor was any deceit found in His mouth.”

23When He was abused, He did not return the abuse. While suffering, He made no threats. Instead, He kept entrusting Himself to the One who judges righteously.
