SUBJUGATING IN RELATIONSHIPS
Likewise, women: subjugate yourselves to your own men; that even if any distrust the word, they also be gained without the word through the behavior of the women; 2 While in awe, they observe your hallowed behavior: 3 whose cosmos is not outward - of braiding the hair and of wrapping around of gold or of enduing garments: 4 but that secret human of the heart in what is incorruptible - of a meek and quiet spirit which is vastly precious in the sight of Elohim. 5 For thus also in the old time the holy women who hoped in Elohim adorned themselves; subjugating to their own men 6 - as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him adoni: of whom you became children - as long as you do good and are not awestricken of any terror. 7 Likewise men: co-settle according to knowledge; bestow honor as to the frailer vessel and as being co-heirs of the charism of life; that your prayers be not excsinded. 8 In completion/shalom, all likeminded, sympathetic one of another, befriending as brothers, tenderspleened, friendly minded: 9 not giving evil for evil or abuse for abuse - but contrariwise eulogize; knowing that you are called to this - to inherit a eulogy: 10 For whoever wills to love life and see good days, pause your tongue from evil, and that your lips not speak deceit, 11 deviate from evil and do good, seek shalom and pursue it. 12 Because the eyes of Yah Veh are over the just and his ears to their petitions: but the face of Yah Veh is against them who do evil. 13 And who is he that vilifies you, whenever you become mimickers of good? 14 But and if you suffer for sake of justness, Blessed! And neither awestricken by their awesomeness nor be troubled; 15 but hallow Yah Veh Elohim * in your hearts, ever prepared to plead to everyone who asks you a word concerning the hope in you with meekness and awe: *some mss: Adonay Messiah 16 having a good conscience; so that they who slander you as evildoers, who threaten your good behavior in Messiah, shame. 17 For it is better, if Elohim thus wills, that you suffer for doing good, than for doing evil: 18 because Messiah also suffered for sins once - the just for the unjust, to bring us to Elohim, indeed deathified in flesh and enlivened in the Spirit: 19 wherein he also went and preached to the spirits in the guardhouse 20 - who sometime distrusted when once the patience of Elohim awaited in the days of Noach while the ark was a preparing, wherein few - that is eight souls were saved through water: 21 to which baptism, the antitype, now also saves us - not the laying aside of filth of flesh but the question of a good conscience to Elohim through the resurrection of Yah Shua Messiah: 22 who went into the heavens - at the right of Elohim angels and authorities and dynamis being subjugated to him.
