Conversation (manner of life) and godliness are both plural in Greek.

WK Translation Notes

a
"There," not "then," is preferred by the Revisers on small but good authority, the copies greatly differing.
b
The addition of "all" before "holy," is an effort in the RV, as in the KJV, to express the plural which expresses every form of behavior and godliness.
