3. It is not fancy hair, gold jewelry, or fine clothes that should make you beautiful.
4. No, your beauty should come from within you—the beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit. This beauty will never disappear, and it is worth very much to God.
5. It was the same with the holy women who lived long ago and followed God. They made themselves beautiful in this way. They accepted the authority of their husbands.
6. Sarah obeyed Abraham, her husband, and called him her master. And you women are true children of Sarah if you always do what is right and are not afraid.
7. In the same way, you husbands should live with your wives in an understanding way. You should show respect to them. They are weaker than you. But God gives them the same blessing that he gives you—the grace that gives true life. Do this so that nothing will stop your prayers.
8. Finally, all of you should live together in peace. Try to understand each other. Love each other as brothers. Be kind and humble.
9. Do not do wrong to a person to pay him back for doing wrong to you. Or do not insult someone to pay him back for insulting you. But ask God to bless that person. Do this, because you yourselves were called to receive a blessing.
10. The Scripture says,“A person must do these thingsto enjoy life and have many, happy days.He must not say evil things.He must not tell lies.
11. He must stop doing evil and do good.He must look for peace and work for it.
