Suffering for Right and Wrong
13 aAnd who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good?
14 aBut even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. b“And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled.”
15 But1 sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always abe ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the bhope that is in you, with meekness and fear;
16 ahaving a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed.
