I PETER

I Peter 3

1In like manner, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; so that, even if any do not obey the Word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word;
Colossians 3:18, Colossians 3:18, Ephesians 5:33, Ephesians 5:33, Ephesians 5:22
2seeing your pure behavior in fear.
1 Peter 2:12, 1 Peter 1:15, 1 Peter 2:12, 1 Peter 1:15, Philippians 1:27
3Let your beauty be not just the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on fine clothing;
1 Timothy 2:9, 1 Timothy 2:10, 1 Timothy 2:9, 1 Timothy 2:10, Romans 12:2
4but in the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God very precious.
Colossians 3:12, Colossians 3:12, 1 Samuel 16:7, 1 Samuel 16:7, Matthew 11:29
5For this is how the holy women before, who hoped in God also adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:
Titus 2:3, Titus 2:4, Titus 2:3, Titus 2:4, 1 Timothy 5:5
6as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose children you now are, if you do well, and are not put in fear by any terror.
Genesis 18:12, Genesis 18:12, Romans 9:7, Romans 9:9, Romans 9:7
7You husbands, in like manner, live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers may not be hindered.
Colossians 3:19, Colossians 3:19, Genesis 2:23, Genesis 2:24, Genesis 2:23
8Finally, be all like-minded, compassionate, loving as brothers, tenderhearted, humble,
Romans 12:10, Romans 12:10, 1 Peter 1:22, Ephesians 4:31, Ephesians 5:2
9not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but instead blessing; because to this were you called, that you may inherit a blessing.
Romans 12:17, Proverbs 20:22, Romans 12:17, Proverbs 20:22, Romans 12:14
10For, "He who would love life, and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit.
Psalms 34:12, Psalms 34:16, Psalms 34:12, Psalms 34:16, James 1:26
11Let him turn away from evil, and do good. Let him seek peace, and pursue it.
Matthew 5:9, Matthew 5:9, Psalms 34:14, Psalms 34:14, Hebrews 12:14
12For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears open to their prayer; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil."
Psalms 34:15, Psalms 34:16, Psalms 34:15, Psalms 34:16, John 9:31
13Now who is he who will harm you, if you become zealous of that which is good?
Proverbs 16:7, Proverbs 16:7, 1 Thessalonians 5:15, 1 Thessalonians 5:15, Romans 8:28
14But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you are blessed. "Do not fear what they fear, neither be troubled."
Matthew 10:28, Matthew 10:28, 1 Peter 2:19, 1 Peter 2:20, 1 Peter 2:19
15But sanctify in your hearts Christ as Lord; and always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, yet with humility and fear:
Colossians 4:6, Colossians 4:6, 2 Timothy 2:25, 2 Timothy 2:26, 2 Timothy 2:25
16having a good conscience; so that when they speak evil against you, they may be put to shame who slander your good manner of life in Christ.
1 Peter 2:12, 1 Peter 2:12, Hebrews 13:18, Hebrews 13:18, 1 Peter 2:15
17For it is better, if it is God's will, that you suffer for doing well than for doing evil.
1 Peter 3:14, 1 Peter 3:14, 1 Peter 4:19, 1 Peter 4:19, Matthew 26:39
18Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God; being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;
Hebrews 9:28, Hebrews 9:28, Hebrews 9:26, Hebrews 9:26, 2 Corinthians 5:21
19in which he also went and preached to the spirits in prison,
1 Peter 4:6, 1 Peter 4:6, Isaiah 61:1, Isaiah 61:1, Isaiah 42:7
20who before were disobedient, when God waited patiently in the days of Noah, while the ship was being built. In it, few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.
Hebrews 11:7, Genesis 6:3, 2 Peter 2:5, Hebrews 11:7, Genesis 6:3
21This is a symbol of baptism, which now saves you-not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
Mark 16:16, Mark 16:16, Ezekiel 36:25, Ezekiel 36:26, Ezekiel 36:25
22who is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being made subject to him.
Hebrews 9:24, Hebrews 9:24, Hebrews 12:2, Hebrews 12:2, Hebrews 10:12
