1 PETER 3:12 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.”
For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil' — the final portion of the Psalm citation establishes that God's surveillance and favor rest upon the righteous, while his opposition (kata) confronts the wicked. The attentiveness of God's ears to prayer (akoe) suggests responsive relationship.
