Wives and Husbands

3 In the same way [2:18], you wives should ·yield [submit; be subject; Eph. 5:21–24; Col. 3:18; ^Cputting the other person’s interests first] to your husbands. Then, if some husbands do not ·obey [or believe] ·God’s teaching [^Lthe word/message], they will be ·persuaded to believe [won over; ^Lgained] without anyone’s saying a word to them. They will be ·persuaded [won over; ^Lgained] by ·the way their wives live [their wives’ conduct/behavior].
