1 Peter 3:12-18

1 Peter 3:12-18 NCV

KJVNIVNLTNKJVESV

The Lord sees the good people and listens to their prayers. But the Lord is against those who do evil.” If you are trying hard to do good, no one can really hurt you. But even if you suffer for doing right, you are blessed. “Don’t be afraid of what they fear; do not dread those things.” But respect Christ as the holy Lord in your hearts. Always be ready to answer everyone who asks you to explain about the hope you have, but answer in a gentle way and with respect. Keep a clear conscience so that those who speak evil of your good life in Christ will be made ashamed. It is better to suffer for doing good than for doing wrong if that is what God wants. Christ himself suffered for sins once. He was not guilty, but he suffered for those who are guilty to bring you to God. His body was killed, but he was made alive in the spirit.
