I PETER
Chapter 3
I Pe | ABP | 3:1 | In like manner the wives, being submitted to their own husbands; that even if any resist persuasion to the word, by the [2of the 3wives 1behavior 5without 6a word 4they shall be gained], | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:3 | Whom let there not be the outward braiding of hair, and adornment of gold or clothing of garments of ornamentation! | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:4 | But let it be the hidden [2of the 3heart 1mankind], in the incorruptible ornament of the gentle and unassuming spirit, which is [2in the presence of 3of God 1lavish]. | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:5 | For thus at some time or other also the holy women, the ones hoping upon God, adorned themselves, being submitted to their own husbands; | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:6 | as Sarah obeyed to Abraham, [3lord 2him 1calling]; of whom you became children, doing good and not fearing with any terror. | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:7 | The husbands, in like manner, living with them according to knowledge, as being a weaker utensil in the feminine way, bestowing honor as also joint-heirs of favor of life, so as to not hinder your prayers. | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:8 | But the conclusion -- all be agreeing, sympathizing, having brotherly affection, compassionate, obliging, | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:9 | not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the other hand, blessing, knowing that in this you were called, that [2a blessing 1you should inherit]. | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:10 | For the one wanting [2life 1to love], and to behold [2days 1good], let him cease his tongue from evil, and his lips to not speak deceit! | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:12 | For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears towards their supplication. But the face of the Lord is against the ones doing evil. | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:14 | But if also you may suffer because of righteousness, blessed are you; but the fear of them you should not fear, nor should you be disturbed. | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:15 | [3the Lord 1But 4God 2sanctify] in your hearts, and be ready continually for a defense to all, to the one asking you a word concerning the [2in 3you 1hope], with gentleness and fear; | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:16 | [3conscience 1having 2a good], that in what they should speak ill of you as ones doing evil, [8should be put to shame 1the ones 2threatening 3your 4good 6in 7Christ 5behavior]. | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:17 | For it is better [7for doing good 1if 5wants you 2the 3will 4of God 6to suffer], than doing evil. | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:18 | For Christ also [2once 3for 4sins 1suffered], the just for the unjust, that he should lead us forward to God, having put to death indeed the flesh, but being restored to life to the spirit; | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:20 | to the ones who disobeyed at some time or other, when once [4was accepted 1the 3of God 2long-suffering] in the days of Noah, carefully preparing the ark, in which few, that is to say, eight souls were preserved through water. | |
I Pe | ABP | 3:21 | Which [2also 5us 1antitype 3now 4delivers] -- immersion, not the flesh getting rid of filth, but [3conscience 2of a good 1the response] towards God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, | |
