1 Peter 2:11-16
11BelovedG27, I beseech you as sojourners and pilgrims, to abstainG568 from fleshlyG4559 lustsG1939, which warG4754 against the soulG5590; 12having your behavior seemly among the GentilesG1484; that, wherein they speakG2635 against you as evil-doers, they may by your goodG2570 worksG2041, which they behold, glorifyG1392 GodG2316 in the dayG2250 of visitationG1984.
13Be subjectG5293 to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sakeG1223: whether to the kingG935, as supreme; 14or unto governorsG2232, as sentG3992 by him for vengeanceG1557 on evil-doers and for praiseG1868 to them that do well. 15For soG3779 isG1510 the will of GodG2316, that by well-doing ye should put to silence the ignoranceG56 of foolishG878 menG444: 16as freeG1658, and not using your freedomG1657 for a cloak of wickednessG2549, but as bondservants of GodG2316.
