1. Petrus 3

¹Likewise, wives, [ergänzt: be] subject to your own husbands, that, even if any are disobedient to the word, they may be gained without [ergänzt: the] word by the conversation of the wives,
²having witnessed your pure conversation [ergänzt: carried out] in fear;
³whose adorning let it not be that outward one of tressing of hair, and wearing gold, or putting on apparel;
⁴but the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible [ergänzt: ornament] of a meek and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is of great price.
⁵For thus also the holy women who have hoped in God heretofore adorned themselves, being subject to their own husbands;
⁶as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; whose children ye have become, doing good, and not fearing with any kind of consternation.
⁷[ergänzt: Ye] husbands likewise, dwell with [ergänzt: them] according to knowledge, as with a weaker, [ergänzt: even] the female, vessel, giving [ergänzt: them] honour, as also fellow-heirs of [ergänzt: the] grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.
⁸Finally, [ergänzt: be] all of one mind, sympathising, full of brotherly love, tender hearted, humble minded;
⁹not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing; but on the contrary, blessing [ergänzt: others], because ye have been called to this, that ye should inherit blessing.
¹⁰For he that will love life and see good days, let him cause his tongue to cease from evil and his lips that they speak no guile.
¹¹And let him avoid evil, and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it;
¹²because [ergänzt: the] eyes of [ergänzt: the] Lord [ergänzt: are] on [ergänzt: the] righteous, and his ears towards their supplications; but [ergänzt: the] face of [ergänzt: the] Lord [ergänzt: is] against them that do evil.
¹³And who shall injure you if ye have become imitators of that which [ergänzt: is] good?
¹⁴But if also ye should suffer for righteousness' sake, blessed [ergänzt: are ye]; but be not afraid of their fear, neither be troubled;
¹⁵but sanctify [ergänzt: the] Lord the Christ in your hearts, and [ergänzt: be] always prepared to [ergänzt: give] an answer [ergänzt: to] every one that asks you to give an account of the hope that [ergänzt: is] in you, but with meekness and fear;
¹⁶having a good conscience, that [ergänzt: as to that] in which they speak against you as evildoers, they may be ashamed who calumniate your good conversation in Christ.
¹⁷For [ergänzt: it is] better, if the will of God should will it, to suffer [ergänzt: as] well-doers than [ergänzt: as] evildoers;
¹⁸for Christ indeed has once suffered for sins, [ergänzt: the] just for [ergänzt: the] unjust, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in flesh, but made alive in [ergänzt: the] Spirit,
¹⁹in which also going he preached to the spirits [ergänzt: which are] in prison,
²⁰heretofore disobedient, when the longsuffering of God waited in [ergänzt: the] days of Noah while the ark was preparing, into which few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water:
²¹which figure also now saves you, [ergänzt: even] baptism, not a putting away of [ergänzt: the] filth of flesh, but [ergänzt: the] demand as before God of a good conscience, by [ergänzt: the] resurrection of Jesus Christ,
²²who is at [ergänzt: the] right hand of God, gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being subjected to him.
