1 Peter 3:1-6

Tree of Life Version

3 Likewise, wives, be submitted to your own husbands so that—even if some do not obey the message—by the wives’ conduct, without a word they may be won over ² as they observe your pure, reverent conduct. ^{[a] 3} Don’t let your beauty^[b] be external—braiding the hair and wearing gold jewelry or fine clothes. ^{[c] 4} Instead let it be in the hidden person of the heart, with the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious. ⁵ For this is the way the holy women, who put their hope in God, used to beautify themselves long ago—being submitted to their own husbands ⁶ just as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord.^[d] You have become her daughters by doing what is good and not fearing intimidation.
