1 Peter 1:11-25

111seekingG2045 to knowG2045 whatG4169 personG5101 orG2228 timeG2540 2the SpiritG4151 of ChristG5547 withinG1722 them was indicatingG1213 as He 3predictedG4303 the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547 and the gloriesG1391 4to followG3326G3778. 12It was revealedG601 to them that they were not servingG1247 themselvesG1438, but you, in theseG846 thingsG846 whichG3739 nowG3568 have been announcedG312 to you throughG1223 thoseG3588 who 5preachedG2097 the gospelG2097 to you by 6the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 sentG649 from heavenG3772--things into whichG3739 7angelsG32 longG1937 to 8lookG3879.

13ThereforeG1352, 910prepareG328 your mindsG1271 for action, 1112keepG3525 soberG3525 in spirit, fixG1679 your 13hopeG1679 completelyG5049 on the 14graceG5485 15to be broughtG5342 to you at 16the revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 14As 1718obedientG5218 childrenG5043, do not 1920be conformedG4964 to the formerG4387 lustsG1939 which were yours in your 21ignoranceG52, 15but 2223likeG2596 the HolyG40 OneG40 who calledG2564 you, 2425be holyG40 yourselvesG846 alsoG2532 26in allG3956 your behaviorG391; 16becauseG1360 it is writtenG1125, “27You shall be holyG40, for I am holyG40.”

17IfG1487 you 28addressG1941 as FatherG3962 the One who 29impartiallyG678 30judgesG2919 accordingG2596 to eachG1538 one’sG1538 workG2041, conductG390 yourselves 31in fearG5401 during the timeG5550 of your 32stayG3940 on earth; 18knowingG3609 that you were not 3334redeemedG3084 with perishableG5349 thingsG5349 like silverG694 orG2228 goldG5553 from your 35futileG3152 wayG391 of lifeG391 inheritedG3970 from your forefathersG3970, 19but with preciousG5093 36bloodG129, as of a 37lambG286 unblemishedG299 and spotlessG784, the blood of ChristG5547. 20For He was 38foreknownG4267 beforeG4253 39the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889, but has 40appearedG5319 41in theseG3588 lastG2078 timesG5550 42for the sakeG1223 of you 21who throughG1223 Him are 43believersG4103 in GodG2316, who raisedG1453 Him from the deadG3498 and 44gaveG1325 Him gloryG1391, soG5620 that your faithG4102 and 45hopeG1680 are in GodG2316.

22Since you have 46in obedienceG5218 to the truthG225 47purifiedG48 your soulsG5590 for a 4849sincereG505 loveG5360 of the brethrenG5360, ferventlyG1619 loveG25 oneG240 anotherG240 from 50the heartG2588, 23for you have been 51bornG313 againG313 52not of seedG4701 whichG5349 is perishableG5349 but imperishableG862, that is, throughG1223 the livingG2198 and enduringG3306 53wordG3056 of GodG2316. 24For, “54AllG3956 fleshG4561 is likeG5613 grassG5528, And allG3956 its gloryG1391 likeG5613 the flowerG438 of grassG5528. The grassG5528 withersG3583, And the flowerG438 fallsG1601 offG1601,2555But the wordG4487 of the LordG2962 enduresG3306 foreverG165.” And thisG3778 is 56the wordG4487 which was 57preachedG2097 to you.
