1 Peter 3:1-6

1 Likewise, let the wives be in subjection to their husbands, that even they which believe not the word, may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives: 2 while they behold your pure conversation coupled with fear. 3 Whose apparel shall not be outward with broided hair, and hanging on of gold, other in putting on of gorgeous apparel: 4 but let the hid man of the heart be uncorrupt, with a meek and a quiet spirit, which spirit is, before God, a thing much set by. 5 For after this manner in the old time did the holy women which trusted in God tire themselves, and were obedient to their husbands, 6 even as Sara obeyed Abraham and called him "Lord" — whose daughters ye are as long as ye do well, not being afraid of every shadow.

Matthew 6:25-33

25 Therefore I say unto you, be not careful for your life what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, nor yet for your body, what raiment ye shall put on. Is not the life more worth than meat? and the body more of value than raiment? 26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither reap, nor yet carry into the barns, and yet your heavenly father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? 27 Which of you, though he took thought therefore, could put one cubit unto his stature? 28 And why care ye then for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They labor not, neither spin: 29 And yet for all that, I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his royalty, was not arrayed like unto one of these. 30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass, which is today in the field, and tomorrow shall be cast into the furnace, shall he not much more do the same unto you, O ye of little faith? 31 Therefore take no thought, saying, 'What shall we eat?' Or. 'What shall we drink?' Or, 'Wherewith shall we be clothed?' 32 After all these things seek the gentiles: For your heavenly father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But rather, seek ye first the kingdom of heaven, and the righteousness thereof; and all these things shall be ministered unto you.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20

19 Either, know ye not how that your bodies are the temple of the holy ghost, which is in you, whom he have of God, and how that ye are not your own? 20 For ye are dearly bought. Therefore glorify ye God in your bodies and in your spirits, for they are God's.

Deuteronomy 22:5

5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto the man, neither shall a man put on woman's raiment. For all that do so, are abomination unto the LORD thy God.

1 Timothy 2:9-10

9 Likewise also the women, that they array themselves in comely apparel with shamefastness, and discreet behavior, not with broided hair, other gold, or pearls, or costly array: 10 but with such as becometh women that profess the worshipping of God through good works.

1 Peter 3:3-4

3 Whose apparel shall not be outward with broided hair, and hanging on of gold, other in putting on of gorgeous apparel: 4 but let the hid man of the heart be uncorrupt, with a meek and a quiet spirit, which spirit is, before God, a thing much set by.
