Advice to married couples

3:1 Advice to married couples

3[ref]Similarly, women should be subject to their husbands, so that if any of them don’t believe the message, they’ll be won by the conduct of their wives even without hearing the message, 2because they’ll be able to observe the pure conduct of their wives. 3[ref]These women shouldn’t focus on outward appearances like the braids in their hair, or gold jewelry or expensive clothes, 4but on the inner person with a gentle and quiet spirit that’s indestructible and which God considers precious. 5That was how holy women in the past adorned themselves—those whose hope was in God 6[ref]like Sarah who submitted to Abraham who you are all descended from. She called himmaster’, doing good and without any worries.

7[ref]Similarly men should live with their wives with understanding like you’d handle something more fragile. They should display honour to their fellow recipients of life-giving grace so that their prayers won’t be hindered.
