1PE-11 Peter an apostle of Jesus Christ to the strangers
scattered throughout Pontus Galatia Cappadocia Asia and Bithynia
.
1PE-12 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father
through sanctification of the Spirit unto obedience and
sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ Grace unto you and peace
be multiplied .
1PE-13 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ
which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again
unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the
dead .
1PE-14 To an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that
fadeth not away reserved in heaven for you .
1PE-15 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto
salvation ready to be revealed in the last time .
1PE-16 Wherein ye greatly rejoice though now for a season if
need be ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations .
1PE-17 That the trial of your faith being much more precious
than of gold that perisheth though it be tried with fire might
be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of
Jesus Christ .
1PE-18 Whom having not seen ye love in whom though now ye see
him not yet believing ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full
of glory .
1PE-19 Receiving the end of your faith even the salvation of
your souls .
1PE-110 Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and
searched diligently who prophesied of the grace that should come
unto you .
1PE-111 Searching what or what manner of time the Spirit of
Christ which was in them did signify when it testified
beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glory that should
follow .
1PE-112 Unto whom it was revealed that not unto themselves but
unto us they did minister the things which are now reported unto
you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy
Ghost sent down from heaven which things the angels desire to
look into .
1PE-113 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind be sober and
hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at
the revelation of Jesus Christ .
1PE-114 As obedient children not fashioning yourselves
according to the former lusts in your ignorance .
1PE-115 But as he which hath called you is holy so be ye holy
in all manner of conversation .
1PE-116 Because it is written Be ye holy for I am holy .
1PE-117 And if ye call on the Father who without respect of
persons judgeth according to every man's work pass the time of
your sojourning here in fear .
1PE-118 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with
corruptible things as silver and gold from your vain
conversation received by tradition from your fathers .
1PE-119 But with the precious blood of Christ as of a lamb
without blemish and without spot .
1PE-120 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of
the world but was manifest in these last times for you .
1PE-121 Who by him do believe in God that raised him up from
the dead and gave him glory that your faith and hope might be in
God .
1PE-122 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth
through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren see that
ye love one another with a pure heart fervently .
1PE-123 Being born again not of corruptible seed but of
incorruptible by the word of God which liveth and abideth for
ever .
1PE-124 For all flesh is as grass and all the glory of man as
the flower of grass The grass withereth and the flower thereof
falleth away .
1PE-125 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever And this is
the word which by the gospel is preached unto you .
* 1PE-21 Wherefore laying aside all malice and all guile and
hypocrisies and envies and all evil speakings .
1PE-22 As newborn babes desire the sincere milk of the word
that ye may grow thereby .
1PE-23 If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious .
1PE-24 To whom coming as unto a living stone disallowed indeed
of men but chosen of God and precious .
1PE-25 Ye also as lively stones are built up a spiritual house
an holy priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable
to God by Jesus Christ .
1PE-26 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture Behold I
lay in Sion a chief corner stone elect precious and he that
believeth on him shall not be confounded .
1PE-27 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious but unto
them which be disobedient the stone which the builders
disallowed the same is made the head of the corner .
1PE-28 And a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence even to
them which stumble at the word being disobedient whereunto also
they were appointed .
1PE-29 But ye are a chosen generation a royal priesthood an
holy nation a peculiar people that ye should show forth the
praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his
marvellous light .
1PE-210 Which in time past were not a people but are now the
people of God which had not obtained mercy but now have obtained
mercy .
1PE-211 Dearly beloved I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims
abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul .
1PE-212 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles that
whereas they speak against you as evildoers they may by your
good works which they shall behold glorify God in the day of
visitation .
1PE-213 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the
Lord's sake whether it be to the king as supreme .
1PE-214 Or unto governors as unto them that are sent by him for
the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of them that do
well .
1PE-215 For so is the will of God that with well doing ye may
put to silence the ignorance of foolish men .
1PE-216 As free and not using your liberty for a cloak of
maliciousness but as the servants of God .
1PE-217 Honour all men Love the brotherhood Fear God Honour the
king .
1PE-218 Servants be subject to your masters with all fear not
only to the good and gentle but also to the froward .
1PE-219 For this is thankworthy if a man for conscience toward
God endure grief suffering wrongfully .
1PE-220 For what glory is it if when ye be buffeted for your
faults ye shall take it patiently but if when ye do well and
suffer for it ye take it patiently this is acceptable with God .
1PE-221 For even hereunto were ye called because Christ also
suffered for us leaving us an example that ye should follow his
steps .
1PE-222 Who did no sin neither was guile found in his mouth .
1PE-223 Who when he was reviled reviled not again when he
suffered he threatened not but committed himself to him that
judgeth righteously .
1PE-224 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the
tree that we being dead to sins should live unto righteousness
by whose stripes ye were healed .
1PE-225 For ye were as sheep going astray but are now returned
unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls .
* 1PE-31 Likewise ye wives be in subjection to your own
husbands that if any obey not the word they also may without the
word be won by the conversation of the wives .
1PE-32 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with
fear .
1PE-33 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of
plaiting the hair and of wearing of gold or of putting on of
apparel .
1PE-34 But let it be the hidden man of the heart in that which
is not corruptible even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit
which is in the sight of God of great price .
1PE-35 For after this manner in the old time the holy women
also who trusted in God adorned themselves being in subjection
unto their own husbands .
1PE-36 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham calling him lord whose
daughters ye are as long as ye do well and are not afraid with
any amazement .
1PE-37 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 .
1PE-38 Finally be ye all of one mind having compassion one of
another love as brethren be pitiful be courteous .
1PE-39 Not rendering evil for evil or railing for railing but
contrariwise blessing knowing that ye are thereunto called that
ye should inherit a blessing .
1PE-310 For he that will love life and see good days let him
refrain his tongue from evil and his lips that they speak no
guile .
1PE-311 Let him eschew evil and do good let him seek peace and
ensue it .
1PE-312 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 .
1PE-313 And who is he that will harm you if ye be followers of
that which is good .
1PE-314 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake happy are
ye and be not afraid of their terror neither be troubled .
1PE-315 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts and be ready
always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason
of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear .
1PE-316 Having a good conscience that whereas they speak evil
of you as of evildoers they may be ashamed that falsely accuse
your good conversation in Christ .
1PE-317 For it is better if the will of God be so that ye
suffer for well doing than for evil doing .
1PE-318 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins the just
for the unjust that he might bring us to God being put to death
in the flesh but quickened by the Spirit .
1PE-319 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in
prison .
