1 Peter 3

1Likewise, ye wives, in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; 2While they behold your chaste conversation with fear. 3Whose adorning let it not be that outward of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 4But the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of Elohim of great price. 5For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in Elohim, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: 6Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. 7Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered. 8Finally, all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, pitiful, courteous: 9Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. 10For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: 11Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. 12For the eyes of the Lord over the righteous, and his ears unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord against them that do evil. 13And who he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? 14But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy : and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; 15But sanctify the Yahuah Elohim in your hearts: and ready always to an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: 16Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Messiah. 17For better, if the will of Elohim be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing. 18For Messiah also has once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to Elohim, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 19By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; 20Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of Elohim waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. 21The like figure whereunto baptism does also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward Elohim,) by the resurrection of Yahusha Messiah: 22Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of Elohim; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
