1 Peter 2:15
King James Version
“For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:”
Context
12Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
13Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
14Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.
15For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
16As free, and not using liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
17Honour all Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
18Servants, subject to masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
