1 Peter 3:12-22

For
<3754>

the eyes
<3788>

of the Lord
<2962>

[are] over
<1909>

the righteous
<1342>_,

and
<2532>

his
<846>

ears
<3775>

[are open] unto
<1519>

their
<846>

prayers
<1162>_:

but
<1161>

the face
<4383>

of the Lord
<2962>

[is] against
<1909>

them that do
<4160> (5723)

evil
<2556>_.

{against: Gr. upon}

And
<2532>

who
<5101>

[is] he that will harm
<2559> (5694)

you
<5209>_,

if
<1437>

ye be
<1096> (5638)

followers
<3402>

of that which is good
<18>_?

But
<235>

and if
<1499>

ye suffer
<3958> (5722)

for
<1223>

righteousness' sake
<1343>_,

happy
<3107>

[are ye]: and
<1161>

be
<5399> (0)

not
<3361>

afraid
<5399> (5676)

of their
<846>

terror
<5401>_,

neither
<3366>

be troubled
<5015> (5686)_;

But
<1161>

sanctify
<37> (5657)

the Lord
<2962>

God
<2316>

in
<1722>

your
<5216>

hearts
<2588>_:

and
<1161>

[be] ready
<2092>

always
<104>

to
<4314>

[give] an answer
<627>

to every man
<3956>

that asketh
<154> (5723)

you
<5209>

a reason
<3056>

of
<4012>

the hope
<1680>

that is in
<1722>

you
<5213>

with
<3326>

meekness
<4240>

and
<2532>

fear
<5401>_:

{fear: or, reverence}

Having
<2192> (5723)

a good
<18>

conscience
<4893>_;

that
<2443>_,

whereas
<1722> <3739>

they speak evil
<2635> (5725)

of you
<5216>_,

as
<5613>

of evildoers
<2555>_,

they may be ashamed
<2617> (5686)

that falsely accuse
<1908> (5723)

your
<5216>

good
<18>

conversation
<391>

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>_.

For
<1063>

[it is] better
<2909>_,

if
<1487>

the will
<2307>

of God
<2316>

be so
<2309> (5719)_,

that ye suffer
<3958> (5721)

for well doing
<15> (5723)_,

than
<2228>

for evil doing
<2554> (5723)_.

For
<3754>

Christ
<5547>

also
<2532>

hath once
<530>

suffered
<3958> (5627)

for
<4012>

sins
<266>_,

the just
<1342>

for
<5228>

the unjust
<94>_,

that
<2443>

he might bring
<4317> (5632)

us
<2248>

to God
<2316>_,

being put to death
<2289> (5772) <3303>

in the flesh
<4561>_,

but
<1161>

quickened
<2227> (5685)

by the Spirit
<4151>_:

By
<1722>

which
<3739>

also
<2532>

he went
<4198> (5679)

and preached
<2784> (5656)

unto the spirits
<4151>

in
<1722>

prison
<5438>_;

Which sometime
<4218>

were disobedient
<544> (5660)_,

when
<3753>

once
<530>

the longsuffering
<3115>

of God
<2316>

waited
<1551> (5711)

in
<1722>

the days
<2250>

of Noah
<3575>_,

while the ark
<2787>

was a preparing
<2680> (5746)_,

wherein
<1519> <3739>

few
<3641>_,

that is
<5123> (5748)_,

eight
<3638>

souls
<5590>

were saved
<1295> (5681)

by
<1223>

water
<5204>_.

The like figure
<499>

whereunto
<3739>

[even] baptism
<908>

doth
<4982> (0)

also
<2532>

now
<3568>

save
<4982> (5719)

us
<2248>

(not
<3756>

the putting away
<595>

of the filth
<4509>

of the flesh
<4561>_,

but
<235>

the answer
<1906>

of a good
<18>

conscience
<4893>

toward
<1519>

God
<2316>,)

by
<1223>

the resurrection
<386>

of Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>_:

Who
<3739>

is gone
<4198> (5679)

into
<1519>

heaven
<3772>_,

and is
<2076> (5748)

on
<1722>

the right hand
<1188>

of God
<2316>_;

angels
<32>

and
<2532>

authorities
<1849>

and
<2532>

powers
<1411>

being made subject
<5293> (5651)

unto him
<846>_.
