Peter continues his explanation of what is expected of Christian “temporary residents, ” saying in verse 12:“ Maintain your conduct fine among the nations, that, in the thing in which they are speaking against you as evildoers, they may as a result of your fine works of which they are eyewitnesses glorify God in the day for his inspection. ”
يُحَاوِلُ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ إِضْعَافَ تَصْمِيمِ ٱلْمَسِيحِيِّينَ ٱلْحَقِيقِيِّينَ أَنْ يُحَافِظُوا عَلَى مَوْقِفِهِمْ ‹ كَنُزَلَاءَ › .‏
