Nel matrimonio
3 Ugualmente voi, mogli, state sottomesse ai vostri mariti perché, anche se alcuni si rifiutano di credere alla parola, vengano dalla condotta delle mogli, senza bisogno di parole, conquistati 2 considerando la vostra condotta casta e rispettosa. 3 Il vostro ornamento non sia quello esteriore - capelli intrecciati, collane d'oro, sfoggio di vestiti -; 4 cercate piuttosto di adornare l'interno del vostro cuore con un'anima incorruttibile piena di mitezza e di pace: ecco ciò che è prezioso davanti a Dio. 5 Così una volta si ornavano le sante donne che speravano in Dio; esse stavano sottomesse ai loro mariti, 6 come Sara che obbediva ad Abramo, chiamandolo signore. Di essa siete diventate figlie, se operate il bene e non vi lasciate sgomentare da alcuna minaccia.
7 E ugualmente voi, mariti, trattate con riguardo le vostre mogli, perché il loro corpo è più debole, e rendete loro onore perché partecipano con voi della grazia della vita: così non saranno impedite le vostre preghiere.
Tra fratelli
8 E finalmente siate tutti concordi, partecipi delle gioie e dei dolori degli altri, animati da affetto fraterno, misericordiosi, umili; 9 non rendete male per male, né ingiuria per ingiuria, ma, al contrario, rispondete benedicendo; poiché a questo siete stati chiamati per avere in eredità la benedizione. 10 Infatti:
Chi vuole amare la vita e vedere giorni felici,
trattenga la sua lingua dal male
e le sue labbra da parole d'inganno;
11 eviti il male e faccia il bene,
cerchi la pace e la segua,
12 perché gli occhi del Signore sono sopra i giusti
e le sue orecchie sono attente alle loro preghiere;
ma il volto del Signore è contro coloro che fanno il
male.
Nella persecuzione
13 E chi vi potrà fare del male, se sarete ferventi nel bene? 14 E se anche doveste soffrire per la giustizia, beati voi! Non vi sgomentate per paura di loro, né vi turbate, 15 ma adorate il Signore, Cristo, nei vostri cuori, pronti sempre a rispondere a chiunque vi domandi ragione della speranza che è in voi. Tuttavia questo sia fatto con dolcezza e rispetto, 16 con una retta coscienza, perché nel momento stesso in cui si parla male di voi rimangano svergognati quelli che malignano sulla vostra buona condotta in Cristo. 17 E' meglio infatti, se così vuole Dio, soffrire operando il bene che facendo il male.
La risurrezione e la discesa agli inferi
18 Anche Cristo è morto una volta per sempre per i peccati, giusto per gli ingiusti, per ricondurvi a Dio; messo a morte nella carne, ma reso vivo nello spirito. 19 E in spirito andò ad annunziare la salvezza anche agli spiriti che attendevano in prigione; 20 essi avevano un tempo rifiutato di credere quando la magnanimità di Dio pazientava nei giorni di Noè, mentre si fabbricava l'arca, nella quale poche persone, otto in tutto, furono salvate per mezzo dell'acqua. 21 Figura, questa, del battesimo, che ora salva voi; esso non è rimozione di sporcizia del corpo, ma invocazione di salvezza rivolta a Dio da parte di una buona coscienza, in virtù della risurrezione di Gesù Cristo, 22 il quale è alla destra di Dio, dopo essere salito al cielo e aver ottenuto la sovranità sugli angeli, i Principati e le Potenze.
1-e Петра 3
Russian Synodal Version
1-e Петра 3
Russian Synodal Version
3 Также и вы, жены, повинуйтесь своим мужьям, чтобы те из них, которые не покоряются слову, житием жен своих без слова приобретаемы были,
2 когда увидят ваше чистое, богобоязненное житие.
3 Да будет украшением вашим не внешнее плетение волос, не золотые уборы или нарядность в одежде,
4 но сокровенный сердца человек в нетленной [красоте] кроткого и молчаливого духа, что драгоценно пред Богом.
5 Так некогда и святые жены, уповавшие на Бога, украшали себя, повинуясь своим мужьям.
6 Так Сарра повиновалась Аврааму, называя его господином. Вы--дети ее, если делаете добро и не смущаетесь ни от какого страха.
7 Также и вы, мужья, обращайтесь благоразумно с женами, как с немощнейшим сосудом, оказывая им честь, как сонаследницам благодатной жизни, дабы не было вам препятствия в молитвах.
8 Наконец будьте все единомысленны, сострадательны, братолюбивы, милосерды, дружелюбны, смиренномудры;
9 не воздавайте злом за зло или ругательством за ругательство; напротив, благословляйте, зная, что вы к тому призваны, чтобы наследовать благословение.
10 Ибо, кто любит жизнь и хочет видеть добрые дни, тот удерживай язык свой от зла и уста свои от лукавых речей;
11 уклоняйся от зла и делай добро; ищи мира и стремись к нему,
12 потому что очи Господа [обращены] к праведным и уши Его к молитве их, но лице Господне против делающих зло, (чтобы истребить их с земли).
13 И кто сделает вам зло, если вы будете ревнителями доброго?
14 Но если и страдаете за правду, то вы блаженны; а страха их не бойтесь и не смущайтесь.
15 Господа Бога святите в сердцах ваших; [будьте] всегда готовы всякому, требующему у вас отчета в вашем уповании, дать ответ с кротостью и благоговением.
16 Имейте добрую совесть, дабы тем, за что злословят вас, как злодеев, были постыжены порицающие ваше доброе житие во Христе.
17 Ибо, если угодно воле Божией, лучше пострадать за добрые дела, нежели за злые;
18 потому что и Христос, чтобы привести нас к Богу, однажды пострадал за грехи наши, праведник за неправедных, быв умерщвлен по плоти, но ожив духом,
19 которым Он и находящимся в темнице духам, сойдя, проповедал,
20 некогда непокорным ожидавшему их Божию долготерпению, во дни Ноя, во время строения ковчега, в котором немногие, то есть восемь душ, спаслись от воды.
21 Так и нас ныне подобное сему образу крещение, не плотской нечистоты омытие, но обещание Богу доброй совести, спасает воскресением Иисуса Христа,
22 Который, восшед на небо, пребывает одесную Бога и Которому покорились Ангелы и Власти и Силы.
1 Peter 3
New International Version
1 Peter 3
New International Version
3 Wives, in the same way submit yourselves(A) to your own husbands(B) so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over(C) without words by the behavior of their wives, 2 when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. 3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.(D) 4 Rather, it should be that of your inner self,(E) the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.(F) 5 For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God(G) used to adorn themselves.(H) They submitted themselves to their own husbands, 6 like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her lord.(I) You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.
7 Husbands,(J) in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.
Suffering for Doing Good
8 Finally, all of you, be like-minded,(K) be sympathetic, love one another,(L) be compassionate and humble.(M) 9 Do not repay evil with evil(N) or insult with insult.(O) On the contrary, repay evil with blessing,(P) because to this(Q) you were called(R) so that you may inherit a blessing.(S) 10 For,
“Whoever would love life
and see good days
must keep their tongue from evil
and their lips from deceitful speech.
11 They must turn from evil and do good;
they must seek peace and pursue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
and his ears are attentive to their prayer,
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”[a](T)
13 Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?(U) 14 But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed.(V) “Do not fear their threats[b]; do not be frightened.”[c](W) 15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer(X) to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope(Y) that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, 16 keeping a clear conscience,(Z) so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.(AA) 17 For it is better, if it is God’s will,(AB) to suffer for doing good(AC) than for doing evil. 18 For Christ also suffered once(AD) for sins,(AE) the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God.(AF) He was put to death in the body(AG) but made alive in the Spirit.(AH) 19 After being made alive,[d] he went and made proclamation to the imprisoned spirits(AI)— 20 to those who were disobedient long ago when God waited patiently(AJ) in the days of Noah while the ark was being built.(AK) In it only a few people, eight in all,(AL) were saved(AM) through water, 21 and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you(AN) also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience(AO) toward God.[e] It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ,(AP) 22 who has gone into heaven(AQ) and is at God’s right hand(AR)—with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him.(AS)

King James Version
1 Peter 3
King James Version
3 Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;
2 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.
3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
9 Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.
10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
11 Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.
13 And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?
14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
17 For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.
18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.
21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.

Submission to Husbands
3 Wives, likewise, be (A)submissive to your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the word, (B)they, without a word, may (C)be won by the conduct of their wives, 2 (D)when they observe your chaste conduct accompanied by fear. 3 (E)Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel— 4 rather let it be (F)the hidden person of the heart, with the [a]incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. 5 For in this manner, in former times, the holy women who trusted in God also adorned themselves, being submissive to their own husbands, 6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, (G)calling him lord, whose daughters you are if you do good and are not afraid with any terror.
A Word to Husbands
7 (H)Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, (I)as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, (J)that your prayers may not be hindered.
Called to Blessing
8 Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be [b]courteous; 9 (K)not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary (L)blessing, knowing that you were called to this, (M)that you may inherit a blessing. 10 For
(N)“He who would love life
And see good days,
(O)Let him [c]refrain his tongue from evil,
And his lips from speaking deceit.
11 Let him (P)turn away from evil and do good;
(Q)Let him seek peace and pursue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
(R)And His ears are open to their prayers;
But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
Suffering for Right and Wrong
13 (S)And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good? 14 (T)But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. (U)“And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled.” 15 But [d]sanctify [e]the Lord God in your hearts, and always (V)be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the (W)hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; 16 (X)having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. 17 For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
Christ’s Suffering and Ours
18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring [f]us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit, 19 by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison, 20 who formerly were disobedient, [g]when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water. 21 (Y)There is also an antitype which now saves us—baptism (Z)(not the removal of the filth of the flesh, (AA)but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, 22 who has gone into heaven and (AB)is at the right hand of God, (AC)angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.
