1 Peter 3:5-7

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ It was in this way long ago that the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves by accepting the authority of their husbands. ⁶ Thus Sarah obeyed Abraham and called him lord. You have become her daughters as long as you do what is good and never let fears alarm you.

⁷ Husbands, in the same way, show consideration for your wives in your life together, paying honor to the woman as the weaker sex,^[a] since they too are also heirs of the gracious gift of life—so that nothing may hinder your prayers.
