1 Peter 3:16-18

Lamsa(i) 16 Having a good conscience; so that they who speak evil of you, as of evil doers, may be ashamed as men who belittle your good works in Christ. 17 For it is better, if it is the will of God, that you suffer for good deeds, rather than for evil doing. 18 For Christ also once suffered for our sins, a just man for sinners, that he might bring you to God, wherefore while he died in the flesh, he lives in the Spirit.
