G2532–καί–kai

for what renown `is it', if sinning and being buffeted, ye do endure `it'? but if, doing good and suffering `for it', ye do endure, this `is' gracious with God,

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

for to this ye were called, because Christ also did suffer for you, leaving to you an example, that ye may follow his steps,

καὶ kai “also”

for ye were as sheep going astray, but ye turned back now to the shepherd and overseer of your souls.

καὶ kai “and”

In like manner, the wives, be ye subject to your own husbands, that even if certain are disobedient to the word, through the conversation of the wives, without the word, they may be won,

καὶ kai “even”

whose adorning -- let it not be that which is outward, of plaiting of hair, and of putting around of things of gold, or of putting on of garments,

καὶ kai “and”

but -- the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible thing of the meek and quiet spirit, which is, before God, of great price,

καὶ kai “and”

for thus once also the holy women who did hope on God, were adorning themselves, being subject to their own husbands,

καὶ kai “also”

as Sarah was obedient to Abraham, calling him `sir,' of whom ye did become daughters, doing good, and not fearing any terror.

καὶ kai “and”

The husbands, in like manner, dwelling with `them', according to knowledge, as to a weaker vessel -- to the wife -- imparting honour, as also being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.

καὶ kai “[they are] also”

for `he who is willing to love life, and to see good days, let him guard his tongue from evil, and his lips -- not to speak guile;

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

let him turn aside from evil, and do good, let him seek peace and pursue it;

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

because the eyes of the Lord `are' upon the righteous, and His ears -- to their supplication, and the face of the Lord `is' upon those doing evil;'

καὶ kai “and”

and who `is' he who will be doing you evil, if of Him who is good ye may become imitators?

Καὶ Kai “And”

but if ye also should suffer because of righteousness, happy `are ye'! and of their fear be not afraid, nor be troubled,

καὶ kai “even”

and the Lord God sanctify in your hearts. And `be' ready always for defence to every one who is asking of you an account concerning the hope that `is' in you, with meekness and fear;

καὶ kai “and”

because also Christ once for sin did suffer -- righteous for unrighteous -- that he might lead us to God, having been put to death indeed, in the flesh, and having been made alive in the spirit,

καὶ kai “also”

in which also to the spirits in prison having gone he did preach,

καὶ kai “also”

also to which an antitype doth now save us -- baptism, (not a putting away of the filth of flesh, but the question of a good conscience in regard to God,) through the rising again of Jesus Christ,

καὶ kai “also”

who is at the right hand of God, having gone on to heaven -- messengers, and authorities, and powers, having been subjected to him.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

Christ, then, having suffered for us in the flesh, ye also with the same mind arm yourselves, because he who did suffer in the flesh hath done with sin,

καὶ kai “also”

for sufficient to us `is' the past time of life the will of the nations to have wrought, having walked in lasciviousnesses, desires, excesses of wines, revelings, drinking-bouts, and unlawful idolatries,

καὶ kai “and”

who shall give an account to Him who is ready to judge living and dead,

καὶ kai “and”

for for this also to dead men was good news proclaimed, that they may be judged, indeed, according to men in the flesh, and may live according to God in the spirit.

καὶ kai “even”

And of all things the end hath come nigh; be sober-minded, then, and watch unto the prayers,

καὶ kai “and”

if any one doth speak -- `as oracles of God;' if any one doth minister -- `as of the ability which God doth supply;' that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the power -- to the ages of the ages. Amen.

καὶ kai “and”
