1 Peter 3:15-17
Revised Geneva Translation
15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give an answer - with humility and respect - to everyone who asks you the Reason for the hope that is in you;
16 having a good conscience, so that when they falsely accuse you as evildoers, those who slander your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed.
17 For it is better (if it is the will of God) to suffer for doing good rather than evil.

New International Version
15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer(A) to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope(B) that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, 16 keeping a clear conscience,(C) so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.(D) 17 For it is better, if it is God’s will,(E) to suffer for doing good(F) than for doing evil.
