He teacheth the duty of wives and husbands to each other,1 ¶ Likewise,º ye wives,º [be] in subjectionºª to your ownº husbands;º that,º if anyº obey notºª the² word,º they¹ª alsoº may¹ª withoutº the wordº be wonºª byº the² conversationº of the² wives;º 2 While they beholdºª yourº chasteº conversationº [coupled] withº fear.º 3 Whoseº adorningº let it¹ª notº beºª that² outwardº [adorning] of plaitingº the hair,º andº of wearingº of gold,º orº of putting onº of apparel;º 4 Butº [let it be] the² hiddenº manº of the² heart,º inº that which is not corruptible,º [even the ornament] of a meekº andº quietº spirit,º whichº isºª in the sightº of Godº of great price.º 5 Forº after this mannerº in the old timeº the² holyº womenº also,º who¹ trustedºª inº God,º adornedºª themselves,º being in subjectionºª unto their ownº husbands:º 6 Even asº Saraº obeyedºª Abraham,º callingºª himº lord:º whoseº daughtersº ye are,ºª as long as ye do well,ºª andº are¹ª not¹ afraidºª² with anyº amazement.º 7 Likewise,º ye husbands,º dwell withºª [them] according² to¹ knowledge,º givingºª honourº unto the² wife,º asº unto the weakerº vessel,º andº asº being heirs togetherº of the graceº of life;º that¹ yourº prayersº be¹ª notº hindered.ºª [1] Gn 3:16; Es 1:16; Pv 11:30; 18:19; Mt 18:15; Ro 6:17; 7:2; 10:16; 1Co 7:16; 9:19; 11:3; 14:34; Ep 5:22, 33; Col 3:18; 4:5; 2Th 1:8; 1Ti 2:11; Tit 2:3; He 5:9; 11:8; Jm 5:19; 1P 1:22; 4:17.
