| 1 | Likewise the wives being subject to their own husbands, in order that if some then disobey the Word, through the conduct of the wives they shall have advantage without the Word, |
| 2 | observing in fear your pure conduct, |
| 3 | of which the dress must not be outward with braids of hair and applications of gold or putting on of garments, |
| 4 | but the hidden man of the heart with the incorruptibility of the gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious before Yahweh. |
| 5 | For thusly at one time also the holy women who have hope in Yahweh had dressed themselves being subject to their own husbands, |
| 6 | as Sarah had obeyed Abraham calling him master, whose children you have been born to do good and not fearing any terror. |
| 7 | The men likewise, living together in accordance with the knowledge that with the feminine is the weaker vessel, imparting honor as they are also fellow-heirs of the favor of life, for your prayers not to be hindered. |
| 8 | But at last, all be like-minded, sympathetic, lovers of brethren, compassionate, humble-minded, |
| 9 | not returning evil for evil or abuse for abuse, but on the contrary blessing, because for this you have been called, in order that you shall inherit a blessing. |
| 10 | For he desiring to love life and to see good days must keep his tongue from evil, and lips for which not to speak guile, |
| 11 | but he must turn away from evil and do good, he must seek peace and pursue it, |
| 12 | because the eyes of Yahweh are upon the righteous and His ears to their entreaty, but the face of Yahweh upon those doing evil. |
| 13 | And who is he who shall be doing you evil if you are emulators of good? |
| 14 | But if then you should suffer on account of righteousness, you are blessed. So you should not fear their fear nor be troubled. |
| 15 | Now sanctify the Prince Christ in your hearts, always ready with an answer to each asking you for an account concerning the hope which is among you, |
| 16 | but with meekness and fear, having a good conscience, in order that while you are slandered those who despise your good conduct in Christ would be ashamed. |
| 17 | For it is better doing good, if one should desire the will of Yahweh, to suffer than doing evil. |
| 18 | Because Christ also suffered once for all errors, the just on behalf of the unjust, in order that He may lead you to Yahweh, indeed dying in the flesh but being made to live by the Spirit. |
| 19 | At which also going He proclaimed to those spirits in prison, |
| 20 | who at one time had been disobedient - when the forbearance of Yahweh awaited in the days of Noah's preparing the vessel in which a few, that is eight souls, had been preserved through the water. |
| 21 | Which also now a representation saves you: immersion. Not a putting away of the filth of the flesh but a demand of a good conscience for Yahweh, through the resurrection of Yahshua Christ, |
| 22 | who is walking in heaven at the right hand of Yahweh, messengers and authorities and powers being made subject to Him. |
