1 Petrus 3:13

3:13 For ¹  who is going to harm you if you are devoted to what is good?

1 Petrus 3:15

3:15 But set Christ ²  apart ³  as Lord in your hearts and always be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks about the hope you possess. ⁴ 

[3:13]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “For” to indicate that what follows gives an explanation.

[3:15]  ² tc Most later mss (P Ï) have θεόν (qeon, “God”) instead of Χριστόν (Criston; “Christ”) here. But Χριστόν is widely supported by excellent and early witnesses (Ì⁷² א A B C Ψ 33 1739 al latt sy co), and as a less common idiom better explains the rise of the other reading.

[3:15]  ³ tn Or “sanctify Christ as Lord.”

[3:15]  ⁴ tn Grk “the hope in you.”
