1PeterG4074, an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to the sojournersG3927 scatteredG1290 throughout PontusG4195, GalatiaG1053, CappadociaG2587, AsiaG773, andG2532 BithyniaG978, 2ElectG1588 accordingG2596 to the foreknowledgeG4268 of GodG2316 the FatherG3962, throughG1722 sanctificationG38 of the SpiritG4151, toG1519 obedienceG5218 andG2532 sprinklingG4473 of the bloodG129 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547: GraceG5485 to youG5213, andG2532 peaceG1515, be multipliedG4129.

3BlessedG2128be the GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whoG3588 according toG2596 hisG846 abundantG4183 mercyG1656 hath begottenG313 usG2248 againG313 toG1519 a livingG2198 hopeG1680 byG1223 the resurrectionG386 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 fromG1537 the deadG3498,1 4ToG1519 an inheritanceG2817 incorruptibleG862, andG2532 undefiledG283, andG2532 that fadeth not awayG263, reservedG5083 inG1722 heavenG3772 forG1519 youG5209,2 5WhoG3588 are keptG5432 byG1722 the powerG1411 of GodG2316 throughG1223 faithG4102 toG1519 salvationG4991 readyG2092 to be revealedG601 inG1722 the lastG2078 timeG2540.

6InG1722 thisG3739 ye greatly rejoiceG21, though nowG737 for a seasonG3641, ifG1487 needG1163 beG2076, ye are in heavinessG3076 throughG1722 variousG4164 temptationsG3986: 7ThatG2443 the trialG1383 of yourG5216 faithG4102, being muchG4183 more preciousG5093 than of goldG5553 that perishethG622, thoughG1223G1161 triedG1381 with fireG4442, might be foundG2147 toG1519 praiseG1868 andG2532 honourG5092 andG2532 gloryG1391 atG1722 the appearingG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547: 8WhomG3739 havingG1492 notG3756 seenG1492, ye loveG25; inG1519 whomG3739, though nowG737 ye seeG3708 him notG3361, yetG1161 believingG4100, ye rejoiceG21 with joyG5479 unspeakableG412 andG2532 full of gloryG1392: 9ReceivingG2865 the endG5056 of yourG5216 faithG4102, even the salvationG4991 of your soulsG5590.

10OfG4012 thisG3739 salvationG4991 the prophetsG4396 have enquiredG1567 andG2532 searched diligentlyG1830, whoG3588 prophesiedG4395 ofG4012 the graceG5485 that should come toG1519 youG5209: 11SearchingG2045 whatG1519G5101, orG2228 what mannerG4169 of timeG2540 the SpiritG4151 of ChristG5547 whoG3588 was inG1722 themG846 did signifyG1213, when he testified beforehandG4303 the sufferingsG3804 ofG1519 ChristG5547, andG2532 the gloryG1391 that should followG3326G5023. 12To whomG3739 it was revealedG601, thatG3754 notG3756 to themselvesG1438, butG1161 to usG2254 they ministeredG1247 the thingsG846, whichG3739 areG312 nowG3568 reportedG312 to youG5213 byG1223 them that have preached the gospelG2097 to youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 sent downG649 fromG575 heavenG3772; which thingsG3739 the angelsG32 desireG1937 to lookG3879 intoG1519.

13ThereforeG1352 gird upG328 the loinsG3751 of yourG5216 mindG1271, be soberG3525, and hopeG1679 to the endG5049 forG1909 the graceG5485 that is to be broughtG5342 to youG5213 atG1722 the revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547;3
