Chap. III.
The dutie of vviues and husbands to ech other. 9 None to doe or speake euil by their
persecutors, 15 but to ansvver them alvvaies vvith modestie, and specially
vvith innocencie, after the example of Christ most innoc&ebar;t: vvhose body though
they killed, yet his soule liued and preached aftervvard to the soules in Hel (namely
to those in the time of Noes floud being a figure of our Baptisme) rose
againe, and ascended.
1 noteIn like maner also note let the vvomen be subiect
to their busbandes: that if any beleeue
not the vvord, by the conuersation of the
vvomen vvithout the vvord they may be
vvonne,
2 considering your chast conuersation
in feare. note note
3 Vvhose trimming let it
not be outvvardly the plaiting of heare,
or laying on gold round about, or of putting on vestures:
4 but the man of the hart that is hidden, in the incorruptibilitie
-- --
of a quiet and a modest spirit, vvhich is riche in the sight
of God.
5 For so sometime the holy vvomen also that trusted
in God, adorned them selues, subiect to their ovvne husbandes.
6 As note Sara obeied Abraham, calling him lord:
note vvhose daughters you are, doing vvel, and not fearing any
perturbation. note
7 Husbandes likevvise, dvvelling vvith them
according to knovvledge, as vnto the vveaker feminine vessel
imparting honour, as it vvere to the coheires also of the
grace of life: that your praiers be not hindered.
8 And note in fine al of one minde, hauing compassion, louers
of the fraternitie, merciful, modest, humble.
9 notenot rendering
euil for euil, nor curse for curse: but contrariewise, blessing:
for vnto this are you called, that you may by inherit&abar;ce
possesse a benediction.
10 For he that vvil loue life, and see good daies:
let him refraine his tong from euil, and his lippes that they speake not guile.
11 Let
him decline from euil, and doe good: let him enquire peace, and folovv it:
12 because
the eies of our Lord are vpon the iust, and his eares vnto their praiers: but
the countenance of our Lord vpon them that doe euil things. note
13 And vvho is
he that can hurt you, if you be emulators of good?
14 But note &
if you suffer ought for iustice, blessed are ye. And the feare
of them feare ye not, & be not troubled.
15 But sanctifie our
Lord Christ in your hartes, ready alwaies to satisfie euery one
that asketh you a reason of that hope vvhich is in you:
16 but
vvith modestie and feare, hauing a good conscience: that in
that vvhich they speake il of you, they may be confounded
vvhich calumniate your good conuersation in Christ.
17 For
it is better to suffer as doing vvel (if the vvil of God vvil
haue it so) then doing il.
18 noteBecause Christ also died once for our sinnes, the iust for
the vniust: that he might offer vs to God, mortified certes in
flesh, but quickened in spirit.
19 In the vvhich spirit comming
he preached09Q1447 to note them also that vvere in prison:
20 vvhich
had been09Q1448 incredulous sometime, note vvhen they expected the
patience of God in the daies of Noë, vvhen the arke vvas a
building: in the vvhich, fevv, that is, note eight soules vvere saued
by vvater.
21 Vvherevnto Baptisme being09Q1449 of the like forme
novv saueth note you also: not the laying avvay of the filth of
the flesh, but09Q1450 the examination of a good conscience tovvard
God by the resurrection of Iesvs Christ.
22 vvho is on the
right hand of God, &cross4; svvallovving death, that vve might be
made heires of life euerlasting: being gone into heauen, Angels
and Potentates and Povvers subiected to him.
