Bible verses about "adornment" | ABU

¹ IN like manner, ye wives, being in subjection to your own husbands; that even if any obey not the word, they may without the word be won by the deportment of their wives, ² when they behold your chaste deportment coupled with fear. ³ Whose adorning, let it not be the outward one of braiding the hair, and of wearing golden ornaments, or of putting on apparel; ⁴ but the hidden man of the heart, in that which is imperishable of the meek and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is of great price. ⁵ For so in the old time the holy women also, who hoped in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands, ⁶ (as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; of whom ye became children,) doing good, and fearing no alarm.

²⁵ For this cause I say to you, take not thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than food, and the body than raiment? ²⁶ Behold the birds of the air, that they sow not, nor reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feeds them. Are ye not much better than they? ²⁷ And which of you by taking thought can add one cubit to his stature? ²⁸ And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They toil not, nor spin; ²⁹ and I say to you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. ³⁰ And if God so clothes the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, will he not much more you, ye of little faith? ³¹ Take not thought therefore, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewith shall we be clothed? ³² For after all these do the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that ye have need of all these. ³³ But seek first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these shall be added to you.

¹⁹ Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom ye have from God, and ye are not your own? ²⁰ For ye are bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body.

⁹ in like manner also that women, in becoming apparel, adorn themselves with modesty and sobriety; not in braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly raiment; ¹⁰ but, which becomes women professing godliness, by means of good works.

³ Whose adorning, let it not be the outward one of braiding the hair, and of wearing golden ornaments, or of putting on apparel; ⁴ but the hidden man of the heart, in that which is imperishable of the meek and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is of great price.
