1 Peter 1:1-9

11Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ,

To those who reside as 2aliens, 3scattered throughout 4Pontus, 5Galatia, 6Cappadocia, 7Asia, and 8Bithynia, 9who are chosen 2according to the 10foreknowledge of God the Father, 11by the sanctifying work of the Spirit, 12to 13obey Jesus Christ and be 14sprinkled with His blood: 15May grace and peace 16be yours in the fullest measure.

317Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who 18according to His great mercy 19has caused us to be born again to 20a living hope through the 21resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4to obtain an 22inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and 23will not fade away, 24reserved in heaven for you, 5who are 25protected by the power of God 26through faith for 27a salvation ready 28to be revealed in the last time. 629In this you greatly rejoice, even though now 30for a little while, 31if necessary, you have been distressed by 32various 33trials, 7so that the 3435proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which 36is perishable, 37even though tested by fire, 38may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at 39the revelation of Jesus Christ; 8and 40though you have not seen Him, you 41love Him, and though you do not see Him now, but believe in Him, you greatly rejoice with joy inexpressible and 42full of glory, 9obtaining as 43the outcome of your faith the salvation of 44your souls.
