1 Peter 3:3-5

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

³ Do not adorn yourselves outwardly by braiding your hair and by wearing gold ornaments or fine clothing;^{(A) 4} rather, let your adornment be the inner self with the lasting beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in God’s sight.^{(B) 5} It was in this way long ago that the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves by being subject to their husbands.
