1 Peter 3
The New Messianic Version of the Bible
1Likewise, you2f wives, [be] in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conduct of the wives; 2While they behold your pure (clean; not corrupt) Conversation (behavior; way of life; community) [coupled] with fear. 3Whose adorning let it not be that outward [adorning] of braiding the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 4But [let it be] the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, [even the ornament] of a meek and quiet Spirit [Ruach], which is in the sight of God-The Father of great price. 5For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God-The Father, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: 6Even as Sarah [princess] obeyed Avraham [Exalted Father], calling him lord: whose daughters you2f are, as long as you2f do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.

7Likewise, you2f husbands, dwell with [them] 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, [be you2f] all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, [be] pitiful, [be] courteous: 9Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that you2f are thereunto called, that you2f 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 deceit:

11Let him avoid (shun; turn aside from) evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and pursue (to follow after) it.

12For the eyes of the Lord - Kurios [are] over the righteous, and his ears [are open] unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord - Kurios [is] against them that do evil.

13And who [is] he that will harm you, if you2f be followers of that which is good? 14But and if you2f suffer (allow, to let, permit) for righteousness' sake, happy [are you2f]: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; 15But sanctify (make holy; set apart for God’s use) the Lord - Kurios God-The Father in your hearts: and [be] ready always to [give] an answer to every man that asks 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 (behavior; way of life; community) in Moshiach [Messiah]. 17For [it is] better, if the will of God-The Father be so, that you2f suffer (allow, to let, permit) for well doing, than for evil doing. 18For Moshiach [Messiah] also has once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God-The Father, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit [Ruach]: 19By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; 20Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God-The Father waited in the days of No’ach [rest], while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. 21The like figure whereunto [even] baptism does also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God-The Father,) by the resurrection of Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah]: 22Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God-The Father; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
