1 Peter 4:12-17
121BelovedG27, do not be surprisedG3579 at the 2fieryG4451 ordealG4451 amongG1722 you, which comesG1096 upon you for your testingG3986, asG5613 thoughG5613 something strangeG3581 were happeningG4819 to you;
13but toG2526 theG2526 degreeG2526 thatG2526 you 3shareG2841 the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547, keep on rejoicingG5463, soG2443 thatG2443 at the 4revelationG602 of His gloryG1391 5you may alsoG2532 rejoiceG5463 and be overjoyedG21.
14IfG1487 you are insultedG3679 67for the nameG3686 of ChristG5547, 8you are blessedG3107, 9becauseG3754 the SpiritG4151 of gloryG1391, and of GodG2316, restsG373 upon you.
15MakeG1063 sureG1063 that 10noneG5100G3361 of you suffersG3958 as a murdererG5406, orG2228 thiefG2812, orG2228 evildoerG2555, orG2228 a 1112troublesomeG244 meddlerG244;
16but ifG1487 anyone suffers as a 13ChristianG5546, he is not to be ashamedG153, but is to 14glorifyG1392 GodG2316 in thisG3778 nameG3686.
17For it is timeG2540 for judgmentG2917 15to beginG757 16with 17the householdG3624 of GodG2316; and ifG1487 it 18begins 19with us firstG4413, whatG5101 will be the outcomeG5056 for thoseG3588 20who doG544 notG544 obeyG544 the 21gospelG2098 of GodG2316?
