1 Peter 3:15-17

Modern English Version

¹⁵ But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts. Always be ready to give an answer to every man who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you, with gentleness and fear. ¹⁶ Have a good conscience so that evildoers who speak evil of you and falsely accuse your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. ¹⁷ For it is better, if it is the will of God, that you suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
