1 Peter 3 1-1 Peter 3 6
In the same way, wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, even if some disobey the word, they may be won over without a word by the way their wives livewhen they observe your pure, reverent lives.Don’t let your beauty consist of outward things like elaborate hairstyles and wearing gold jewelry or fine clothes,but rather what is inside the heart— the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.For in the past, the holy women who put their hope in God also adorned themselves in this way, submitting to their own husbands,just as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. You have become her children when you do what is good and do not fear any intimidation.
