1 Peter 3:1-6 (Revised Standard Version)
View In My Bible
1
Likewise you wives, be submissive to your husbands, so that some, though they do not obey the word, may be won without a word by the behavior of their wives,
2
when they see your reverent and chaste behavior.
3
Let not yours be the outward adorning with braiding of hair, decoration of gold, and wearing of fine clothing,
4
but let it be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable jewel of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious.
5
So once the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves and were submissive to their husbands,
6
as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. And you are now her children if you do right and let nothing terrify you.
