1 Peter 3:10 in Context — 1 Peter 3

8 Y finalmente, sed todos de un mismo corazón, compasivos, amándoos fraternalmente, misericordiosos, amigables;

9 No volviendo mal por mal, ni maldición por maldición, sino antes por el contrario, bendiciendo; sabiendo que vosotros sois llamados para que poseáis bendición en herencia.

10 Porque el que quiere amar la vida, y ver días buenos, refrene su lengua de mal, y sus labios no hablen engaño;

11 Apártase del mal, y haga bien; busque la paz, y sígala.

12 Porque los ojos del Señor están sobre los justos, y sus oídos [atentos] á sus oraciones: pero el rostro del Señor está sobre aquellos que hacen mal.
