1 Peter 3:1-2

Context
Wives and Husbands

3:1 In the same way, wives, be subject to your own husbands. Then, 1  even if some are disobedient to the word, they will be won over without a word by the way you live, 2  3:2 when they see your pure and reverent conduct. 3 

1 Peter 3:16

Context
3:16 Yet do it with courtesy and respect, 4  keeping a good conscience, so that those who slander your good conduct in Christ may be put to shame when they accuse you. 5 

1 tn Grk “that…they may be won over,” showing the purpose of “being subject” (vs. 1b). Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

2 tn Grk “by the wives’ behavior.”

3 tn Grk “behavior,” the same word translated “the way you live” in vs. 1.

4 tn Grk “but with courtesy and respect,” continuing the command of v. 15. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

5 tn Grk “when you are spoken against.”
