1 Peter 3:14 BBE

¹²  For the eyes of the Lord are on the upright, and his ears are open to their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.

¹³  Who will do you any damage if you keep your minds fixed on what is good?

¹⁴  But you are happy if you undergo pain because of righteousness; have no part in their fear and do not be troubled;

¹⁵  But give honour to Christ in your hearts as your Lord; and be ready at any time when you are questioned about the hope which is in you, to give an answer in the fear of the Lord and without pride;

¹⁶  Being conscious that you have done no wrong; so that those who say evil things about your good way of life as Christians may be put to shame.
