3:7Husbands, in the same way, treat your wives with consideration as the weaker partners11 and show them honor as fellow heirs of the grace of life. In this way nothing will hinder your prayers.12
Footnotes
- 11 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.
- 12 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.
