Read 1 Peter 3:7 in the NABRE onlineYe husbands, likewise dwelling with them according to knowledge, giving honour to the female as to the weaker vessel, and as to the co-heirs of the grace of life: that your prayers be not hindered.

Husbands, be considerate — Peter's instruction is plain and specific. The reason given is that she is a co-heir of the grace of life, which means her dignity is equal. The warning is that ignoring this hinders your prayers.
