10WhichG3588 in time pastG4218 were notG3756 a peopleG2992, butG1161 are nowG3568 the peopleG2992 of GodG2316: whichG3588 hadG1653 notG3756 obtained mercyG1653, butG1161 nowG3568 have obtained mercyG1653. 11

Dearly belovedG27, I beseechG3870 you asG5613 strangersG3941 andG2532 pilgrimsG3927, abstainG568 from fleshlyG4559 lustsG1939, whichG3748 warG4754 againstG2596 the soulG3588G5590; 12HavingG2192 yourG4771 conversationG3588G391 honestG2570 amongG1722 the GentilesG3588G1484: thatG2443, whereasG1722 they speak againstG2635 youG4771 asG5613 evildoersG2555, they mayG1392 byG1537 your goodG2570 worksG2041, which they shall beholdG2029, glorifyG1392 GodG3588G2316 inG1722 the dayG2250 of visitationG1984. 13

Submit yourselvesG5293 to everyG3956 ordinanceG2937 of manG442 forG1223 the Lord’s sakeG3588G2962: whether it beG1535 to the kingG935, asG5613 supremeG5242; 14OrG1535 unto governorsG2232, asG5613 unto them that are sentG3992 byG1223 himG846 forG1519 the punishmentG1557 of evildoersG2555, andG1161 for the praiseG1868 of them that do wellG17. 15ForG3754 soG3779 isG1510 the willG3588G2307 of GodG3588G2316, that with well doingG15 ye may put to silenceG5392 the ignoranceG56 of foolishG878 menG444: 16AsG5613 freeG1658, andG2532 notG3361 usingG2192 your libertyG3588G1657 forG5613 a clokeG1942 of maliciousnessG3588G2549, butG235 asG5613 the servantsG1401 of GodG2316. 17HonourG5091 allG3956 men. LoveG25 the brotherhoodG3588G81. FearG5399 GodG3588G2316. HonourG5091 the kingG3588G935. 18

ServantsG3588G3610, be subjectG5293 toG3588G1203 your mastersG3588G1203 withG1722 allG3956 fearG5401; notG3756 onlyG3440 to the goodG18 andG2532 gentleG1933, butG235 alsoG2532 to the wickedG4646. 19ForG1063 thisG3778 is thankworthyG5485, ifG1487 a manG5100 forG1223 conscienceG4893 toward GodG2316 endureG5297 griefG3077, sufferingG3958 wrongfullyG95. 20ForG1063 whatG4169 gloryG2811 is it, ifG1487, whenG2532 ye be buffetedG2852 for your faultsG264, ye shall take it patientlyG5278? butG235 ifG1487, when ye do wellG15, andG2532 sufferG3958 for it, ye take it patientlyG5278, thisG3778 is acceptableG5485 withG3844 GodG2316. 21ForG1063 evenG1519 hereuntoG3778 were ye calledG2564: becauseG3754 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 sufferedG3958 forG5228 usG1473, leavingG5277 usG1473 an exampleG5261, thatG2443 ye should followG1872 hisG846 stepsG3588G2487: 22WhoG3739 didG4160 noG3756 sinG266, neitherG3761 wasG2147 guileG1388 foundG2147 inG1722 hisG846 mouthG3588G4750: 23WhoG3739, when he was reviledG3058, reviledG486 notG3756 againG486; when he sufferedG3958, he threatenedG546 notG3756; butG1161 committedG3860 himself to him that judgethG2919 righteouslyG1346: 24WhoG3739 his own selfG846 bareG399 ourG1473 sinsG3588G266 inG1722 his ownG846 bodyG3588G4983 onG1909 the treeG3588G3586, thatG2443 weG2198, being deadG581 to sinsG3588G266, should liveG2198 unto righteousnessG3588G1343: by whoseG3739 stripesG3588G3468 ye were healedG2390. 25ForG1063 ye wereG1510 asG5613 sheepG4263 going astrayG4105; butG235 areG1994 nowG3568 returnedG1994 untoG1909 the ShepherdG3588G4166 andG2532 BishopG1985 of yourG4771 soulsG3588G5590.
