1P 2:18-3:12 (King James)

¹⁸ Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward. ¹⁹ For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully. ²⁰ For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God. ²¹ For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: ²² Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: ²³ Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: ²⁴ Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. ²⁵ For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

1 Pierre 3

   ¹ Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; ² While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. ³ Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; ⁴ But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. ⁵ For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: ⁶ Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. ⁷ Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
   ⁸ Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: ⁹ Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. ¹⁰ For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: ¹¹ Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. ¹² For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.

1P 2:18-3:12 (Vulgate)

   ¹⁸ Servi, subditi estote in omni timore dominis, non tantum bonis et modestis, sed etiam dyscolis.
   ¹⁹ Hæc est enim gratia, si propter Dei conscientiam sustinet quis tristitias, patiens injuste.
   ²⁰ Quæ enim est gloria, si peccantes, et colaphizati suffertis ? sed si bene facientes patienter sustinetis, hæc est gratia apud Deum.
   ²¹ In hoc enim vocati estis : quia et Christus passus est pro nobis, vobis relinquens exemplum ut sequamini vestigia ejus :
   ²² qui peccatum non fecit, nec inventus est dolus in ore ejus :
   ²³ qui cum malediceretur, non maledicebat : cum pateretur, non comminabatur : tradebat autem judicanti se injuste :
   ²⁴ qui peccata nostra ipse pertulit in corpore suo super lignum ; ut peccatis mortui, justitiæ vivamus : cujus livore sanati estis.
   ²⁵ Eratis enim sicut oves errantes, sed conversi estis nunc ad pastorem, et episcopum animarum vestrarum.

1 Pierre 3

   ¹ Similiter et mulieres subditæ sint viris suis : ut etsi qui non credunt verbo, per mulierum conversationem sine verbo lucrifiant :
   ² considerantes in timore castam conversationem vestram.
   ³ Quarum non sit extrinsecus capillatura, aut circumdatio auri, aut indumenti vestimentorum cultus :
   ⁴ sed qui absconditus est cordis homo, in incorruptibilitate quieti, et modesti spiritus, qui est in conspectu Dei locuples.
   ⁵ Sic enim aliquando et sanctæ mulieres, sperantes in Deo, ornabant se, subjectæ propriis viris.
   ⁶ Sicut Sara obediebat Abrahæ, dominum eum vocans : cujus estis filiæ benefacientes, et non pertimentes ullam perturbationem.
   ⁷ Viri similiter cohabitantes secundum scientiam, quasi infirmiori vasculo muliebri impartientes honorem, tamquam et cohæredibus gratiæ vitæ : ut non impediantur orationes vestræ.
   ⁸ In fine autem omnes unanimes, compatientes fraternitatis amatores, misericordes, modesti, humiles :
   ⁹ non reddentes malum pro malo, nec maledictum pro maledicto, sed e contrario benedicentes : quia in hoc vocati estis, ut benedictionem hæreditate possideatis.
   ¹⁰ Qui enim vult vitam diligere, et dies videre bonos, coërceat linguam suam a malo, et labia ejus ne loquantur dolum.
   ¹¹ Declinet a malo, et faciat bonum : inquirat pacem, et sequatur eam :
   ¹² quia oculi Domini super justos, et aures ejus in preces eorum : vultus autem Domini super facientes mala.
