1 Peter 4:14-17

14If you are insulted 12for the name of Christ, 3you are blessed, 4because the Spirit of glory, and of God, rests upon you.

15Make sure that 5none of you suffers as a murderer, or thief, or evildoer, or a 67troublesome meddler;

16but if anyone suffers as a 8Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to 9glorify God in this name.

17For it is time for judgment 10to begin 11with 12the household of God; and if it 13begins 14with us first, what will be the outcome for those 15who do not obey the 16gospel of God?
