11 Peter an apostle of Jesus Christ to the strangers scattered
throughout Pontus Galatia Cappadocia Asia and Bithynia .

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 .

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 .

14 To an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that
fadeth not away reserved in heaven for you .

15 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto
salvation ready to be revealed in the last time .

16 Wherein ye greatly rejoice though now for a season if need
be ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations .

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 .

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 .

19 Receiving the end of your faith even the salvation of your
souls .

110 Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and searched
diligently who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you
.

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 .

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 .

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 .

114 As obedient children not fashioning yourselves according to
the former lusts in your ignorance .

115 But as he which hath called you is holy so be ye holy in
all manner of conversation .

116 Because it is written Be ye holy for I am holy .

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 .

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 .

119 But with the precious blood of Christ as of a lamb without
blemish and without spot .

120 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the
world but was manifest in these last times for you .

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
.

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 .

123 Being born again not of corruptible seed but of
incorruptible by the word of God which liveth and abideth for
ever .

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 .

125 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever And this is the
word which by the gospel is preached unto you .

* 21 Wherefore laying aside all malice and all guile and
hypocrisies and envies and all evil speakings .

22 As newborn babes desire the sincere milk of the word that ye
may grow thereby .

23 If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious .

24 To whom coming as unto a living stone disallowed indeed of
men but chosen of God and precious .

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 .

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 .

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 .

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 .

29 But ye are a chosen generation a royal priesthood an holy
nation a peculiar people that ye should shew forth the praises
of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous
light .

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 .

211 Dearly beloved I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims
abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul .

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 .

213 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's
sake whether it be to the king as supreme .

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 .

215 For so is the will of God that with well doing ye may put
to silence the ignorance of foolish men .

216 As free and not using your liberty for a cloke of
maliciousness but as the servants of God .

217 Honour all men Love the brotherhood Fear God Honour the
king .

218 Servants be subject to your masters with all fear not only
to the good and gentle but also to the froward .

219 For this is thankworthy if a man for conscience toward God
endure grief suffering wrongfully .

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 .

221 For even hereunto were ye called because Christ also
suffered for us leaving us an example that ye should follow his
steps .

222 Who did no sin neither was guile found in his mouth .

223 Who when he was reviled reviled not again when he suffered
he threatened not but committed himself to him that judgeth
righteously .

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 .

225 For ye were as sheep going astray but are now returned unto
the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls .

* 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 .

32 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear
.

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 .

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 .

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 .

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 .

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 .

38 Finally be ye all of one mind having compassion one of
another love as brethren be pitiful be courteous .

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 .

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 .

311 Let him eschew evil and do good let him seek peace and
ensue it .

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 .

313 And who is he that will harm you if ye be followers of that
which is good .

314 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake happy are ye
and be not afraid of their terror neither be troubled .

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 .

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 .

317 For it is better if the will of God be so that ye suffer
for well doing than for evil doing .

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 .

319 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in
prison .

320 Which sometime were disobedient when once the longsuffering
of God waited in the days of Noah while the ark was a preparing
wherein few that is eight souls were saved by water .

321 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save
us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh but the
answer of a good conscience toward God by the resurrection of
Jesus Christ .

322 Who is gone into heaven and is on the right hand of God
angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him .

* 41 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh
arm yourselves likewise with the same mind for he that hath
suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin .

42 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the
flesh to the lusts of men but to the will of God .

43 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought
the will of the Gentiles when we walked in lasciviousness lusts
excess of wine revellings banquetings and abominable idolatries .

44 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to
the same excess of riot speaking evil of you .

45 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the
quick and the dead .

46 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that
are dead that they might be judged according to men in the flesh
but live according to God in the spirit .

47 But the end of all things is at hand be ye therefore sober
and watch unto prayer .

48 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves
for charity shall cover the multitude of sins .

49 Use hospitality one to another without grudging .

410 As every man hath received the gift even so minister the
same one to another as good stewards of the manifold grace of
God .

411 If any man speak let him speak as the oracles of God if any
man minister let him do it as of the ability which God giveth
that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ to
whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever Amen .

412 Beloved think it not strange concerning the fiery trial
which is to try you as though some strange thing happened unto
you .

413 But rejoice inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's
sufferings that when his glory shall be revealed ye may be glad
also with exceeding joy .

414 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ happy are ye for
the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you on their part he
is evil spoken of but on your part he is glorified .

415 But let none of you suffer as a murderer or as a thief or
as an evildoer or as a busybody in other men's matters .

416 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian let him not be ashamed
but let him glorify God on this behalf .

417 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house
of God and if it first begin at us what shall the end be of them
that obey not the gospel of God .

418 And if the righteous scarcely be saved where shall the
ungodly and the sinner appear .

419 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God
commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing as unto a
faithful Creator .

* 51 The elders which are among you I exhort who am also an
elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ and also a
partaker of the glory that shall be revealed .

52 Feed the flock of God which is among you taking the
oversight thereof not by constraint but willingly not for filthy
lucre but of a ready mind .

53 Neither as being lords over God's heritage but being
ensamples to the flock .

54 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear ye shall receive a
crown of glory that fadeth not away .

55 Likewise ye younger submit yourselves unto the elder Yea all
of you be subject one to another and be clothed with humility
for God resisteth the proud and giveth grace to the humble .

56 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God
that he may exalt you in due time .

57 Casting all your care upon him for he careth for you .

58 Be sober be vigilant because your adversary the devil as a
roaring lion walketh about seeking whom he may devour .

59 Whom resist stedfast in the faith knowing that the same
afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the
world .

510 But the God of all grace who hath called us unto his
eternal glory by Christ Jesus after that ye have suffered a
while make you perfect stablish strengthen settle you .

511 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever Amen .

512 By Silvanus a faithful brother unto you as I suppose I have
written briefly exhorting and testifying that this is the true
grace of God wherein ye stand .

513 The church that is at Babylon elected together with you
saluteth you and so doth Marcus my son .

514 Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity Peace be with
you all that are in Christ Jesus Amen .
