1 Peter 3:11 in Context — 1 Peter 3

9 Não retribuais o mal com mal, ou insulto com insulto; ao contrário, bendizei, sabendo que para isto fostes chamados, para que herdeis a bênção.

10 Pois: quem quer amar a vida e ver dias bons, refreie sua língua do mal, e que seus lábios não falem engano.

11 Afaste-se do mal, e faça o bem; busque a paz, e siga-a.

12 Porque os olhos do Senhor estão sobre os justos, e seus ouvidos [atentos] às suas orações; mas a face do Senhor é contra os que fazem o mal.

13 E quem vos fará mal se fordes adeptos do bem?
