1 Peter 1:13-22

13ThereforeG1352 prepareG328G3588G3751 yourG4771 minds for actionG1271.1 Be sober-mindedG3525. Set your hopeG1679 fullyG5049 onG1909 theG3588 graceG5485 to be givenG5342 youG4771 atG1722 the revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 14AsG5613 obedientG5218 childrenG5043, do not conformG3361G4964 to theG3588 passionsG1939 ofG1722 yourG4771 formerG4386 ignoranceG52. 15ButG235 just asG2596 He whoG3588 calledG2564 youG4771 is holyG40, soG2532 beG1096 holyG40 inG1722 allG3956 you doG391, 16forG1360 it is writtenG1125: “BeG1510 holyG40, becauseG3754 IG1473 amG1510 holyG40.”2

SinceG1487 you call onG1941 a FatherG3962 whoG3588 judgesG2919 each one’sG1538 workG2041 impartiallyG678, conduct yourselvesG390 inG1722 reverent fearG5401 duringG3588 yourG4771 stayG5550 as foreignersG3940. 18For you knowG1492 thatG3754 it was not with perishable thingsG3756G5349 such as silverG694 orG2228 goldG5553 that you were redeemedG3084 fromG1537 theG3588 emptyG3152 way of lifeG391 youG4771 inherited from your forefathersG3970, 19butG235 with the preciousG5093 bloodG129 of ChristG5547, a lambG286 without blemishG299 or spotG784. 20He was knownG4267 beforeG4253 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889, butG1161 was revealedG5319 inG1909 theG3588 lastG2078 timesG5550 for your sakeG1223G4771.

21ThroughG1223 HimG846 you believeG4103 inG1519 GodG2316, whoG3588 raised HimG1453G846 fromG1537 the deadG3498 andG2532 glorifiedG1325G1391 HimG846; and soG5620 yourG4771 faithG4102 andG2532 hopeG1680 areG1510 inG1519 GodG2316.

22Since you have purifiedG48 yourG4771 soulsG5590 byG1722 obedienceG5218 to theG3588 truthG225 so thatG1519 you have a genuine love for your brothersG5360G505, loveG25 one anotherG240 deeplyG1619, fromG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588.3
