1 Petrus 2:21

2:21 For to this you were called, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving an example for you to follow in his steps.

1 Petrus 3:9

3:9 Do not return evil for evil or insult for insult, but instead bless ¹  others ²  because you were called to inherit a blessing.

[3:9]  ¹ tn Grk “not returning…but blessing,” continuing the sense of command from the preceding.

[3:9]  ² tn The direct object “others” is omitted but implied in Greek, and must be supplied to suit English style.
