1 Peter 1:5-25

5who are 1protectedG5432 by the powerG1411 of GodG2316 2throughG1223 faithG4102 for 3a salvationG4991 readyG2092 4to be revealedG601 in the lastG2078 timeG2540. 65In thisG3739 you greatlyG21 rejoiceG21, even though nowG737 6for a littleG3641 whileG3641, 7ifG1487 necessaryG1189, you have been distressedG3076 by 8variousG4164 9trialsG3986, 7soG2443 thatG2443 the 1011proofG1383 of your faithG4102, being moreG4186 preciousG4186 than goldG5553 which perishesG622 12thoughG1161 testedG1381 by fireG4442, 13may be foundG2147 to resultG1519 in praiseG1868, gloryG1391, and honorG5092 at 14the revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547; 8and 15though you have not seenG3708 Him, you 16loveG25 Him, and though you do not seeG3708 Him nowG737, but believeG4100 in Him, you greatlyG21 rejoiceG21 with joyG5479 inexpressibleG412 and 17fullG1392 ofG1392 gloryG1392, 9obtainingG2865 as 18the outcomeG5056 of your faithG4102, the salvationG4991 of 19your soulsG5590.

1020As to thisG3739 salvationG4991, the prophetsG4396 who 21prophesiedG4395 of the 22graceG5485 that would come to you madeG1567G1830 carefulG1567G1830 searchesG1567 and inquiriesG1830, 1123seekingG2038 toG2038 knowG2038 whatG5101 personG5101 orG2228 timeG2540 24the SpiritG4151 of ChristG5547 withinG1722 them was indicatingG1213 as He 25predictedG4303 the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547 and the gloriesG1391 26to 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 27preachedG2097 the gospelG2097 to you by 28the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 sentG649 from heavenG3772--things into whichG3739 29angelsG32 longG1937 to 30lookG3879.

13ThereforeG1352, 3132prepareG328 your mindsG1271 for action, 3334keepG3525 soberG3525 in spirit, setG1679 your 35hopeG1679 completelyG5049 on the 36graceG5485 to be broughtG5342 to you at 37the revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 14As 3839obedientG5218 childrenG5043, do not 4041be conformedG4964 to the formerG4387 lustsG1939 which were yours in your 42ignoranceG52, 15but 4344likeG2596 the HolyG40 OneG40 who calledG2564 you, 4546be holyG40 yourselvesG846 alsoG2532 47in allG3956 your behaviorG391; 16becauseG1360 it is writtenG1125: “48You shall be holyG40, for I am holyG40.”

17IfG1487 you 49addressG1941 as FatherG3962 the One who 50impartiallyG678 51judgesG2919 accordingG2596 to eachG1538 one’sG1538 workG2041, conductG390 yourselves 52in fearG5401 during the timeG5550 of your 53stayG3940 on earth; 18knowingG3609 that you were not 5455redeemedG3084 with perishableG5349 thingsG5349 like silverG694 orG2228 goldG5553 from your 56futileG3152 wayG391 ofG391 lifeG391 inheritedG3970 fromG3970 your forefathersG3970, 19but with preciousG5093 57bloodG129, as of a 58lambG286 unblemishedG299 and spotlessG784, the blood of ChristG5547. 20For He was 59foreknownG4267 beforeG4253 60the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889, but has 61appearedG5319 62in theseG3588 lastG2078 timesG5550 63for the sakeG1223 of you 21who throughG1223 Him are 64believersG4103 in GodG2316, who raisedG1453 Him from the deadG3498 and 65gaveG1325 Him gloryG1391, soG5620 thatG5620 your faithG4102 and 66hopeG1680 are in GodG2316.

22Since you have 67purifiedG48 your soulsG5590 68in obedienceG5218 to the truthG225 for a 69sincereG505 loveG5360 ofG5360 theG5360 brothersG5360 and sistersG5360, ferventlyG1619 loveG25 oneG240 anotherG240 from 70the heartG2588, 23for you have been 71bornG313 againG313 72not of seedG4701 which is perishableG5349, but imperishableG862, that is, throughG1223 the livingG2198 and enduringG3306 73wordG3056 of GodG2316. 24For, “74AllG3956 fleshG4561 is likeG5613 grassG5528, And allG3956 its gloryG1391 is likeG5613 the flowerG438 of grassG5528. The grassG5528 withersG3583, And the flowerG438 fallsG1601 offG1601,2575But the wordG4487 of the LordG2962 enduresG3306 foreverG165.” And thisG3778 is 76the wordG4487 which was 77preachedG2097 to you.
