< 1 Peter 3 >

1 Likewise let the wiues bee subiect to their husbands, that euen they which obey not the worde, may without the worde be wonne by the conuersation of the wiues,
ομοιως {VAR2: [αι] } γυναικες υποτασσομεναι τοις ιδιοις ανδρασιν ινα {VAR2: και } ει τινες απειθουσιν τω λογω δια της των γυναικων αναστροφης ανευ λογου κερδηθησονται
2 While they beholde your pure conuersation, which is with feare.
εποπτευσαντες την εν φοβω αγνην αναστροφην υμων
3 Whose apparelling, let it not be that outwarde, with broyded heare, and golde put about, or in putting on of apparell:
ων εστω ουχ ο εξωθεν εμπλοκης τριχων και περιθεσεως χρυσιων η ενδυσεως ιματιων κοσμος
4 But let it bee the hidde man of the heart, which consisteth in the incorruption of a meeke and quiet spirite, which is before God a thing much set by.
αλλ ο κρυπτος της καρδιας ανθρωπος εν τω αφθαρτω του {VAR1: ησυχιου και πραεως } {VAR2: πραεως και ησυχιου } πνευματος ο εστιν ενωπιον του θεου πολυτελες
5 For euen after this maner in time past did the holy women, which trusted in God, tire them selues, and were subiect to their husbands.
ουτως γαρ ποτε και αι αγιαι γυναικες αι ελπιζουσαι εις θεον εκοσμουν εαυτας υποτασσομεναι τοις ιδιοις ανδρασιν
6 As Sara obeyed Abraham, and called him Sir: whose daughters ye are, whiles yee doe well, not being afraide of any terrour.
ως σαρρα {VAR1: υπηκουεν } {VAR2: υπηκουσεν } τω αβρααμ κυριον αυτον καλουσα ης εγενηθητε τεκνα αγαθοποιουσαι και μη φοβουμεναι μηδεμιαν πτοησιν
7 Likewise ye husbands, dwel with them as men of knowledge, giuing honour vnto the woman, as vnto the weaker vessell, euen as they which are heires together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not interrupted.
οι ανδρες ομοιως συνοικουντες κατα γνωσιν ως ασθενεστερω σκευει τω γυναικειω απονεμοντες τιμην ως και {VAR1: συγκληρονομοι } {VAR2: συγκληρονομοις } χαριτος ζωης εις το μη εγκοπτεσθαι τας προσευχας υμων
8 Finally, be ye all of one minde: one suffer with another: loue as brethren: bee pitifull: bee courteous,
το δε τελος παντες ομοφρονες συμπαθεις φιλαδελφοι ευσπλαγχνοι ταπεινοφρονες
9 Not rendring euil for euill, neither rebuke for rebuke: but contrarywise blesse, knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should be heires of blessing.
μη αποδιδοντες κακον αντι κακου η λοιδοριαν αντι λοιδοριας τουναντιον δε ευλογουντες οτι εις τουτο εκληθητε ινα ευλογιαν κληρονομησητε
10 For if any man long after life, and to see good dayes, let him refraine his tongue from euill, and his lippes that they speake no guile.
ο γαρ θελων ζωην αγαπαν και ιδειν ημερας αγαθας παυσατω την γλωσσαν απο κακου και χειλη του μη λαλησαι δολον
11 Let him eschew euil, and do good: let him seeke peace, and follow after it.
εκκλινατω δε απο κακου και ποιησατω αγαθον ζητησατω ειρηνην και διωξατω αυτην
12 For the eyes of the Lord are ouer the righteous, and his eares are open vnto their prayers: and the face of the Lord is against them that do euil.
οτι οφθαλμοι κυριου επι δικαιους και ωτα αυτου εις δεησιν αυτων προσωπον δε κυριου επι ποιουντας κακα
13 And who is it that will harme you, if ye follow that which is good?
και τις ο κακωσων υμας εαν του αγαθου ζηλωται γενησθε
14 Notwithstanding blessed are ye, if ye suffer for righteousnes sake. Yea, feare not their feare, neither be troubled.
αλλ ει και πασχοιτε δια δικαιοσυνην μακαριοι τον δε φοβον αυτων μη φοβηθητε μηδε ταραχθητε
15 But sanctifie the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready alwayes to giue an answere to euery man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, with meekenesse and reuerence,
κυριον δε τον χριστον αγιασατε εν ταις καρδιαις υμων ετοιμοι αει προς απολογιαν παντι τω αιτουντι υμας λογον περι της εν υμιν ελπιδος αλλα μετα πραυτητος και φοβου
16 Hauing a good coscience, that whe they speake euill of you as of euill doers, they may be ashamed, which slander your good conuersation in Christ.
συνειδησιν εχοντες αγαθην ινα εν ω καταλαλεισθε καταισχυνθωσιν οι επηρεαζοντες υμων την αγαθην εν χριστω αναστροφην
17 For it is better (if the will of God be so) that ye suffer for well doing, then for euil doing.
κρειττον γαρ αγαθοποιουντας ει θελοι το θελημα του θεου πασχειν η κακοποιουντας
18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sinnes, the iust for the vniust, that he might bring vs to God, and was put to death concerning the flesh, but was quickened by the spirit.
οτι και χριστος απαξ περι αμαρτιων {VAR1: απεθανεν } {VAR2: επαθεν } δικαιος υπερ αδικων ινα υμας προσαγαγη τω θεω θανατωθεις μεν σαρκι ζωοποιηθεις δε πνευματι
19 By the which hee also went, and preached vnto the spirits that are in prison.
εν ω και τοις εν φυλακη πνευμασιν πορευθεις εκηρυξεν
20 Which were in time passed disobedient, when once the long suffering of God abode in the dayes of Noe, while the Arke was preparing, wherein fewe, that is, eight soules were saued in the water.
απειθησασιν ποτε οτε απεξεδεχετο η του θεου μακροθυμια εν ημεραις νωε κατασκευαζομενης κιβωτου εις ην ολιγοι τουτ εστιν οκτω ψυχαι διεσωθησαν δι υδατος
21 Whereof the baptisme that nowe is, answering that figure, (which is not a putting away of the filth of the flesh, but a confident demaunding which a good conscience maketh to God) saueth vs also by the resurrection of Iesus Christ,
ο και υμας αντιτυπον νυν σωζει βαπτισμα ου σαρκος αποθεσις ρυπου αλλα συνειδησεως αγαθης επερωτημα εις θεον δι αναστασεως ιησου χριστου
22 Which is at the right hand of God, gone into heauen, to whom the Angels, and Powers, and might are subiect.
ος εστιν εν δεξια {VAR2: [του] } θεου πορευθεις εις ουρανον υποταγεντων αυτω αγγελων και εξουσιων και δυναμεων
