1 Peter 3:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ That was how holy women made themselves beautiful many years ago. They trusted God that he would help them. They respected the authority of their husbands. ⁶ Sarah was a woman like that. She obeyed her husband, Abraham. She called him, ‘My master’. So you wives also should do what is right. Do not let anything make you afraid. Then you will be like true daughters of Sarah.^[a]

⁷ You husbands must also respect your wives. Be kind to your wife and help her. Remember that she is not as strong as you are. Because God is very kind, she has received his gift of true life, as you have. So you should respect her. Then God will answer you when you pray to him.
