1 # Likewise <3668>, ye wives <1135>, be in subjection <5293> (5746) to your own <2398> husbands <435> ; that <2443>, if any <1536> obey not <544> (5719) the word <3056>, they <2770> <0> also <2532> may <2770> <0> without <427> the word <3056> be won <2770> (5686) by <1223> the conversation <391> of the wives <1135>;
2 While they behold <2029> (5660) your <5216> chaste <53> conversation <391> coupled with <1722> fear <5401>.
3 Whose <3739> adorning <2889> let it <2077> <0> not <3756> be <2077> (5749) that outward <1855> adorning of plaiting <1708> the hair <2359>, and <2532> of wearing <4025> of gold <5553>, or <2228> of putting on <1745> of apparel <2440>;
4 But <235> let it be the hidden <2927> man <444> of the heart <2588>, in <1722> that which is not corruptible <862>, even the ornament of a meek <4239> and <2532> quiet <2272> spirit <4151>, which <3739> is <2076> (5748) in the sight <1799> of God <2316> of great price <4185>.
5 For <1063> after this manner <3779> in the old time <4218> the holy <40> women <1135> also <2532> , who <3588> trusted <1679> (5723) in <1909> God <2316>, adorned <2885> (5707) themselves <1438>, being in subjection <5293> (5746) unto their own <2398> husbands <435>:
6 Even as <5613> Sara <4564> obeyed <5219> (5656) Abraham <11>, calling <2564> (5723) him <846> lord <2962>: whose <3739> daughters <5043> ye are <1096> (5675), as long as ye do well <15> (5723) , and <2532> are <5399> <0> not <3361> afraid <5399> (5740) with any <3367> amazement <4423>.
7 Likewise <3668>, ye husbands <435>, dwell with <4924> (5723) them according to <2596> knowledge <1108>, giving <632> (5723) honour <5092> unto the wife <1134>, as <5613> unto the weaker <772> vessel <4632> , and <2532> as <5613> being heirs together <4789> of the grace <5485> of life <2222>; that <1519> your <5216> prayers <4335> be <1581> <0> not <3361> hindered <1581> (5745).
8 # Finally <1161> <5056>, be ye all <3956> of one mind <3675>, having compassion one of another <4835>, love as brethren <5361>, be pitiful <2155>, be courteous <5391>:
9 Not <3361> rendering <591> (5723) evil <2556> for <473> evil <2556>, or <2228> railing <3059> for <473> railing <3059>: but <1161> contrariwise <5121> blessing <2129>; knowing <1492> (5761) that <3754> ye are <2564> <0> thereunto <1519> <5124> called <2564> (5681), that <2443> ye should inherit <2816> (5661) a blessing <2127> (5723).
10 For <1063> he that will <2309> (5723) love <25> (5721) life <2222>, and <2532> see <1492> (5629) good <18> days <2250>, let him refrain <3973> (5657) his <846> tongue <1100> from <575> evil <2556>, and <2532> his <846> lips <5491> that they speak <2980> (5658) no <3361> guile <1388> :
11 Let him eschew <1578> (5657) <575> evil <2556>, and <2532> do <4160> (5657) good <18>; let him seek <2212> (5657) peace <1515>, and <2532> ensue <1377> (5657) it <846>.
12 For <3754> the eyes <3788> of the Lord <2962> are over <1909> the righteous <1342>, and <2532> his <846> ears <3775> are open unto <1519> their <846> prayers <1162>: but <1161> the face <4383> of the Lord <2962> is against <1909> them that do <4160> (5723) evil <2556>.
 - PROVISION
13 And <2532> who <5101> is he that will harm <2559> (5694) you <5209>, if <1437> ye be <1096> (5638) followers <3402> of that which is good <18>?
14 But <235> and if <1499> ye suffer <3958> (5722) for <1223> righteousness' sake <1343>, happy <3107> are ye: and <1161> be <5399> <0> not <3361> afraid <5399> (5676) of their <846> terror <5401>, neither <3366> be troubled <5015> (5686);
15 But <1161> sanctify <37> (5657) the Lord <2962> God <2316> in <1722> your <5216> hearts <2588>: and <1161> be ready <2092> always <104> to <4314> give an answer <627> to every man <3956> that asketh <154> (5723) you <5209> a reason <3056> of <4012> the hope <1680> that is in <1722> you <5213> with <3326> meekness <4240> and <2532> fear <5401>:
 - HOPE
16 # Having <2192> (5723) a good <18> conscience <4893>; that <2443>, whereas <1722> <3739> they speak evil <2635> (5725) of you <5216>, as <5613> of evildoers <2555>, they may be ashamed <2617> (5686) that falsely accuse <1908> (5723) your <5216> good <18> conversation <391> in <1722> Christ <5547>.
17 For <1063> it is better <2909>, if <1487> the will <2307> of God <2316> be so <2309> (5719), that ye suffer <3958> (5721) for well doing <15> (5723), than <2228> for evil doing <2554> (5723) .
18 # For <3754> Christ <5547> also <2532> hath once <530> suffered <3958> (5627) for <4012> sins <266>, the just <1342> for <5228> the unjust <94>, that <2443> he might bring <4317> (5632) us <2248> to God <2316>, being put to death <2289> (5772) <3303> in the flesh <4561>, but <1161> quickened <2227> (5685) by the Spirit <4151>:
19 By <1722> which <3739> also <2532> he went <4198> (5679) and preached <2784> (5656) unto the spirits <4151> in <1722> prison <5438>;
20 Which sometime <4218> were disobedient <544> (5660), when <3753> once <530> the longsuffering <3115> of God <2316> waited <1551> (5711) in <1722> the days <2250> of Noah <3575>, while the ark <2787> was a preparing <2680> (5746), wherein <1519> <3739> few <3641>, that is <5123> (5748), eight <3638> souls <5590> were saved <1295> (5681) by <1223> water <5204>.
21 # The like figure <499> whereunto <3739> even baptism <908> doth <4982> <0> also <2532> now <3568> save <4982> (5719) us <2248> (not <3756> the putting away <595> of the filth <4509> of the flesh <4561> , but <235> the answer <1906> of a good <18> conscience <4893> toward <1519> God <2316>,) by <1223> the resurrection <386> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>:
22 Who <3739> is gone <4198> (5679) into <1519> heaven <3772>, and is <2076> (5748) on <1722> the right hand <1188> of God <2316>; angels <32> and <2532> authorities <1849> and <2532> powers <1411> being made subject <5293> (5651) unto him <846>.
