1 Peter 3:13-16

13Now awho is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is good? 14 bBut even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you will be blessed. cHave no fear of them, dnor be troubled, 15but ein your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, falways being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and grespect, 16 hhaving a good conscience, so that, iwhen you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame.
