1 Peter 3:1-7 Again, you married women should submit to your husbands, so that if any of them reject the Message, they may, apart from the Message, be won over, by the conduct of their wives,

Twentieth_Century⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Again, you married women should submit to your husbands, so that if any of them reject the Message, they may, apart from the Message, be won over, by the conduct of their wives, ² as they watch your submissive and blameless conduct. ³ Yours should be, not the external adornment of the arrangement of the hair, the wearing of jewelry, or the putting on of dresses, ⁴ but the inner life with the imperishable beauty of a quiet and gentle spirit; for this is very precious in God's sight. ⁵ It was by this that the holy women of old, who rested their hopes on God, adorned themselves; submitting to their husbands, ⁶ as Sarah did, who obeyed Abraham, and called him master. And you are her true children, as long as you live good lives, and let nothing terrify you. ⁷ Again, those of you who are married men should live considerately with their wives, showing due regard to their sex, as weaker than their own, and not forgetting that they share with you in the gift of Life. Then you will be able to pray without hindrance.
