1 Peter 1:1-13

1PeterG4074, apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to [the] sojourners of [the] dispersionG1290 of PontusG4195, GalatiaG1053, CappadociaG2587, AsiaG773, and BithyniaG978,

2elect accordingG2596 to [the] foreknowledgeG4268 of 1GodG2316 [the] FatherG3962, by sanctificationG38 of [the] SpiritG4151, unto [the] obedienceG5218 and sprinkling of [the] bloodG129 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547: GraceG5485 to you and peaceG1515 be multipliedG4129.

3Blessed [be] the 2GodG2316 and FatherG3962 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, who, accordingG2596 to his greatG4183 mercyG1656, has begotten us againG313 to a livingG2198 hopeG1680 through [the] resurrectionG386 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 from among [the] deadG3498,

4to an incorruptible and undefiledG283 and unfading inheritanceG2817, reserved in [the] heavensG3772 for you,

5who are kept guarded by [the] powerG1411 of 3GodG2316 through faithG4102 for salvationG4991 readyG2092 to be revealedG601 in [the] lastG2078 timeG2540.

6Wherein ye exultG21, for a littleG3641 while at presentG737, if neededG1163, put to grief by variousG4164 trialsG3986,

7that the proving of your faithG4102, much more preciousG4186 than of goldG5553 which perishesG622, though it be proved by fireG4442, be foundG2147 to praiseG1868 and gloryG1391 and honour in [the] revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547:

8whom, having not seenG3708, ye loveG25; on whom [though] not nowG1161 looking, but believingG4100, ye exultG21 with joyG5479 unspeakable and filled with [the] glory,

9receivingG2865 the endG5056 of your faithG4102, [the] salvationG4991 of [your] soulsG5590.

10ConcerningG4012 which salvationG4991 prophetsG4396, who have prophesiedG4395 of the graceG5485 towards you, sought out and searched out;

11searching what, or what manner of timeG2540, the SpiritG4151 of ChristG5547 which [was] in them pointed out, testifying before of the sufferings which [belonged] to ChristG5547, and the gloriesG1391 after these.

12To whom it was revealedG601, that not to themselves but to you they ministeredG1247 those thingsG3739, which have nowG1161 been announced to you by those who have declared to you the glad tidings by [the] HolyG40 SpiritG4151, sentG649 from heavenG3772, which angelsG32 desireG1937 to look into.

13Wherefore, having girded up the loinsG3751 of your mindG1271, [be] soberG3525 [and] hopeG1679 with perfect stedfastness in the graceG5485 [which will be] broughtG5342 to you at [the] revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547;
