1 Peter 3:3

NETBible

Let your 1  beauty 2  not be external – the braiding of hair and wearing of gold jewelry 3  or fine clothes –

NIV ©

Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewellery and fine clothes.

NASB ©

Your adornment must not be merely external—braiding the hair, and wearing gold jewelry, or putting on dresses;

NLT ©

Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty that depends on fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes.

MSG ©

What matters is not your outer appearance--the styling of your hair, the jewelry you wear, the cut of your clothes--

BBE ©

Do not let your ornaments be those of the body such as dressing of the hair, or putting on of jewels of gold or fair clothing;

NRSV ©

Do not adorn yourselves outwardly by braiding your hair, and by wearing gold ornaments or fine clothing;

NKJV ©

Do not let your adornment be merely outward––arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel––

NET Notes

1 tn Grk “whose,” referring to the wives.

2 tn Or “adornment.”

3 tn The word “jewelry” is not in the Greek text, but has been supplied to indicate that gold ornaments or jewelry is intended; otherwise the reader might assume wearing gold-colored clothing was forbidden.
