1 Peter 3:7

7 Husbands, in the same way, treat your wives with consideration as the weaker partners ^{▼▼ Grk “living together according to knowledge, as to the weaker, female vessel.” The primary verbs of vs. 7 are participles (“living together…showing honor”) but they continue the sense of command from the previous paragraphs.} and show them honor as fellow heirs of the grace of life. In this way nothing will hinder your prayers. ^{▼▼ Grk “so that your prayers may not be hindered.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek, this clause was translated as a separate sentence.}
