1 Peter 1:18-25

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 heartG2588.1 23For you have been born againG313, notG3756 ofG1537 perishableG5349 seedG4701, butG235 of imperishableG862, throughG1223 the livingG2198 andG2532 enduringG3306 wordG3056 of GodG2316. 24ForG1360,

“AllG3956 fleshG4561 is likeG5613 grassG5528,andG2532 allG3956 itsG846 gloryG1391 likeG5613 the flowersG438 of the fieldG5528;theG3588 grassG5528 withersG3583 andG2532 theG3588 flowersG438 fallG1601,25butG1161 theG3588 wordG4487 of the LordG2962 standsG3306 foreverG1519G3588G165.”2

AndG1161 thisG3778 isG1510 theG3588 wordG4487 thatG3588 was proclaimedG2097 toG1519 youG4771.
