After describing how much Jesus suffered and how he submissively endured, Peter encouraged wives of unbelieving husbands: “In like manner, you wives, be in subjection to your own husbands, in order that, if any are not obedient to the word, they may be won without a word through the conduct of their wives, because of having been eyewitnesses of your chaste conduct together with deep respect. ” ​ — 1 Peter 3: 1, 2.
او گفت :‏ « شوهران خود را اطاعت نمایید تا اگر بعضی نیز مطیع کلام نشوند ،‏ سیرتِ زنان ،‏ ایشان را بدون کلام دریابد ،‏ چونکه سیرتِ طاهر و خداترس شما را بینند .‏ » —‏ ۱پِطْرُس ۳ :‏ ۱ ،‏ ۲‏ .‏
