6 even as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. You are her children as long as you do right and are not afraid with any terror.
7 Likewise, you husbands, live considerately with your wives, giving honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they too are also heirs of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered.
8 Finally, be all of one mind, be loving toward one another, be gracious, and be kind.
9 Do not repay evil for evil, or curse for curse, but on the contrary, bless, knowing that to this you are called, so that you may receive a blessing.
10 For “He who would love lifeand see good days,let him keep his tongue from evil,and his lips from speaking deceit.
11 Let him turn away from evil and do good;let him seek peace and pursue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,and His ears are open to their prayers;but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
