1 Peter 2:11-16

11BelovedG27, I exhortG3870 [you], as strangers and sojourners, to abstainG568 from fleshlyG4559 lustsG1939, which warG4754 against the soulG5590;

12having your conversation honest among the GentilesG1484, that [as to that] in which they speakG2635 against you as evildoersG2555, they may through [your] goodG2570 worksG2041, [themselves] witnessing [them], glorifyG1392 1GodG2316 in [the] dayG2250 of visitationG1984.

13Be in subjectionG5293 [therefore] to every humanG442 institution for the Lord's sakeG1223; whether to [the] kingG935 as supreme,

14or to rulers as sentG3992 by him, for vengeanceG1557 on evildoersG2555, and praiseG1868 to them that do well.

15Because soG3779 isG1510 the will of 2GodG2316, that by well-doing ye put to silence the ignoranceG56 of senseless menG444;

16as freeG1658, and not as having liberty as a cloak of maliceG2549, but as 3God's bondmen.
