13 And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?
13 Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?
13 Now who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is good?
13 If with heart and soul you're doing good, do you think you can be stopped?
13 And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good?
13 Now, who will want to harm you if you are eager to do good?
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 1 Peter 3:13
Commentary on 1 Peter 3:8-13
(Read 1 Peter 3:8-13)
Though Christians cannot always be exactly of the same mind, yet they should have compassion one of another, and love as brethren. If any man desires to live comfortably on earth, or to possess eternal life in heaven, he must bridle his tongue from wicked, abusive, or deceitful words. He must forsake and keep far from evil actions, do all the good he can, and seek peace with all men. For God, all-wise and every where present, watches over the righteous, and takes care of them. None could or should harm those who copied the example of Christ, who is perfect goodness, and did good to others as his followers.
