1 Peter 3:12 in Context — 1 Peter 3
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?
14 Porém, mesmo se sofrerdes por causa da justiça, benditos sois. Não tenhais medo deles, nem vos perturbeis.
