3:8

Finally
<1161> <5056>_,

[be ye] all
<3956>

of one mind
<3675>_,

having compassion one of another
<4835>_,

love as brethren
<5361>_,

[be] pitiful
<2155>_,

[be] courteous
<5391>_:

{love as: or, loving to the}

3:9

Not
<3361>

rendering
<591> (5723)

evil
<2556>

for
<473>

evil
<2556>_,

or
<2228>

railing
<3059>

for
<473>

railing
<3059>_:

but
<1161>

contrariwise
<5121>

blessing
<2129>_;

knowing
<1492> (5761)

that
<3754>

ye are
<2564> (0)

thereunto
<1519> <5124>

called
<2564> (5681)_,

that
<2443>

ye should inherit
<2816> (5661)

a blessing
<2127> (5723)_.

3:10

For
<1063>

he that will
<2309> (5723)

love
<25> (5721)

life
<2222>_,

and
<2532>

see
<1492> (5629)

good
<18>

days
<2250>_,

let him refrain
<3973> (5657)

his
<846>

tongue
<1100>

from
<575>

evil
<2556>_,

and
<2532>

his
<846>

lips
<5491>

that they speak
<2980> (5658)

no
<3361>

guile
<1388>_:

3:11

Let him eschew
<1578> (5657) <575>

evil
<2556>_,

and
<2532>

do
<4160> (5657)

good
<18>_;

let him seek
<2212> (5657)

peace
<1515>_,

and
<2532>

ensue
<1377> (5657)

it
<846>_.

3:12

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}

3:13

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>_?

3:14

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)_;

3:15

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}

3:16

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>_.

3:17

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)_.

3:18

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>_:

3:19

By
<1722>

which
<3739>

also
<2532>

he went
<4198> (5679)

and preached
<2784> (5656)

unto the spirits
<4151>

in
<1722>

prison
<5438>_;

3:20

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>_.

3:21

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>_:

3:22

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>_.
