1 Peter 3
1 Similarly also, wives should be subject to their husbands, so that, even if some do not believe the Word, they may benefit without the Word, through the behavior of these wives, 2 as they consider with fear your chaste behavior. 3 For you, there should be no unnecessary adornment of the hair, or surrounding […]
1 Peter 4
1 Since Christ has suffered in the flesh, you also should be armed with the same intention. For he who suffers in the flesh desists from sin, 2 so that now he may live, for the remainder of his time in the flesh, not by the desires of men, but by the will of God. […]

James 5
1 Act now, you who are wealthy! Weep and wail in your miseries, which will soon come upon you! 2 Your riches have been corrupted, and your garments have been eaten by moths. 3 Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be a testimony against you, and it will eat away at […]
