1 Peter 3:3-5
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
3
Your adornment must not be
merely
the external—braiding the hair, wearing gold
jewelry,
or putting on apparel;
4
but
it should be
the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable
quality
of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God.
5
For in this way the holy women of former times, who hoped in God, also used to adorn themselves, being subject to their own husbands,
King James Version
Chapter 3
3
Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
4
But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
5
For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
3
Don’t let your beauty consist of outward things like elaborate hairstyles and wearing gold jewelry,
4
but rather what is inside the heart —the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.
5
For in the past, the holy women who put their hope in God also adorned themselves in this way, submitting to their own husbands,
New Living Translation
Chapter 3
3
Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes.
4
You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God.
5
This is how the holy women of old made themselves beautiful. They put their trust in God and accepted the authority of their husbands.
English Standard Version
Chapter 3
3
Do not let your adorning be external — the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear —
4
but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God 's sight is very precious.
5
For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands,
New International Version
Chapter 3
3
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.
4
Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.
5
For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to adorn themselves. They submitted themselves to their own husbands,
New King James Version
Chapter 3
3
Do not let your adornment be
merely
outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on
fine
apparel—
4
rather
let it be
the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible
beauty
of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.
5
For in this manner, in former times, the holy women who trusted in God also adorned themselves, being submissive to their own husbands,
