Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.

Desgleichen, ihr Männer, wohnet bei ihnen mit Vernunft und gebet dem weiblichen als dem schwächeren Werkzeuge seine Ehre, als die auch Miterben sind der Gnade des Lebens, auf daß eure Gebete nicht verhindert werden.
Vosotros maridos, semejantemente, habitad con ellas según ciencia, dando honor a la mujer como a vaso más frágil, y como a herederas juntamente de la gracia de la vida; para que vuestras oraciones no sean impedidas.
Maris, montrez à votre tour de la sagesse dans vos rapports avec vos femmes, comme avec un sexe plus faible; honorez-les, comme devant aussi hériter avec vous de la grâce de la vie. Qu'il en soit ainsi, afin que rien ne vienne faire obstacle à vos prières.
Voi mariti, fate il simigliante, abitando con loro discretamente; portando onore al vaso femminile, come al più debole; come essendo voi ancora coeredi della grazia della vita; acciocchè le vostre orazioni non sieno interrotte
Igualmente vós, maridos, coabitai com elas com entendimento, dando honra à mulher, como vaso mais fraco; como sendo vós os seus co-herdeiros da graça da vida; para que não sejam impedidas as vossas orações.
同樣,你們作丈夫的,要按情理 跟妻子共同生活,體貼女性是比較軟弱的器皿;要尊重她,因為她也與你一同承受生命之恩。這樣,你們的禱告就不會受阻礙。
