1 Peter 3:14-17

« 1 Pet 21 Pet 31 Pet 4 »

14 But even if you should ^asuffer for the sake of righteousness, ^byou ¹are blessed. ^cAnd do not fear their fear, and do not be troubled, 15 but ¹sanctify ^aChrist as Lord in your hearts, always being ready ^bto make ²a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the ^ahope that is in you, yet ^cwith gentleness and ^dfear, 16 having a ^agood conscience so that in the thing in which ^byou are slandered, those who disparage your good conduct in Christ will be put to shame. 17 For ^ait is better, ^bif ¹God should will it so, that you suffer for doing good rather than for doing wrong.
