1 Peter 3:1-6 ▼

1 In like manner, ye wives, be subject to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they may, without the word, be gained through the conduct of their wives,

2 having beheld your chaste conduct mingled with fear:

3 whose adorning , let it not be the outward one of braiding of hair and of wearing of golden ornaments, or of putting on apparel;

4 but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is of great price.

5 For thus, in former times, the holy women also, who hoped in God, were wont to adorn themselves, submitting themselves to their own husbands;

6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, of whom ye became children; if ye do good, and fear no alarm.
