| 1:1 | Peter <4074>, an apostle <652> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, to the strangers <3927> scattered <1290> throughout Pontus <4195>, Galatia <1053>, Cappadocia <2587>, Asia <773>, and <2532> Bithynia <978>, |
| 1:2 | Elect <1588> according <2596> to the foreknowledge <4268> of God <2316> the Father <3962>, through <1722> sanctification <38> of the Spirit <4151>, unto <1519> obedience <5218> and <2532> sprinkling <4473> of the blood <129> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>: Grace <5485> unto you <5213>, and <2532> peace <1515>, be multiplied <4129> (5684). |
| 1:3 | Blessed <2128> [be] the God <2316> and <2532> Father <3962> of our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, which <3588> according to <2596> his <846> abundant <4183> mercy <1656> hath begotten <313> (0) us <2248> again <313> (5660) unto <1519> a lively <2198> (5723) hope <1680> by <1223> the resurrection <386> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> from <1537> the dead <3498>, {abundant: Gr. much} |
| 1:4 | To <1519> an inheritance <2817> incorruptible <862>, and <2532> undefiled <283>, and <2532> that fadeth not away <263>, reserved <5083> (5772) in <1722> heaven <3772> for <1519> you <5209>, {for you: or, for us} |
| 1:5 | Who <3588> are kept <5432> (5746) by <1722> the power <1411> of God <2316> through <1223> faith <4102> unto <1519> salvation <4991> ready <2092> to be revealed <601> (5683) in <1722> the last <2078> time <2540>. |
| 1:6 | Wherein <1722> <3739> ye greatly rejoice <21> (5736), though now <737> for a season <3641>, if <1487> need <1163> (5752) be <2076> (5748), ye are in heaviness <3076> (5685) through <1722> manifold <4164> temptations <3986>: |
| 1:7 | That <2443> the trial <1383> of your <5216> faith <4102>, being much <4183> more precious <5093> than of gold <5553> that perisheth <622> (5734), though <1223> <1161> it be tried <1381> (5746) with fire <4442>, might be found <2147> (5686) unto <1519> praise <1868> and <2532> honour <5092> and <2532> glory <1391> at <1722> the appearing <602> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>: |
| 1:8 | Whom <3739> having <1492> (0) not <3756> seen <1492> (5761) (5625) <1492> (5631), ye love <25> (5719); in <1519> whom <3739>, though now <737> ye see <3708> (5723) [him] not <3361>, yet <1161> believing <4100> (5723), ye rejoice <21> (5736) with joy <5479> unspeakable <412> and <2532> full of glory <1392> (5772): |
| 1:9 | Receiving <2865> (5734) the end <5056> of your <5216> faith <4102>, [even] the salvation <4991> of [your] souls <5590>. |
| 1:10 | Of <4012> which <3739> salvation <4991> the prophets <4396> have enquired <1567> (5656) and <2532> searched diligently <1830> (5656), who <3588> prophesied <4395> (5660) of <4012> the grace <5485> [that should come] unto <1519> you <5209>: |
| 1:11 | Searching <2045> (5723) what <1519> <5101>, or <2228> what manner <4169> of time <2540> the Spirit <4151> of Christ <5547> which <3588> was in <1722> them <846> did signify <1213> (5707), when it testified beforehand <4303> (5740) the sufferings <3804> of <1519> Christ <5547>, and <2532> the glory <1391> that should follow <3326> <5023>. |
| 1:12 | Unto whom <3739> it was revealed <601> (5681), that <3754> not <3756> unto themselves <1438>, but <1161> unto us <2254> they did minister <1247> (5707) the things <846>, which <3739> are <312> (0) now <3568> reported <312> (5648) unto you <5213> by <1223> them that have preached the gospel <2097> (5671) unto you <5209> with <1722> the Holy <40> Ghost <4151> sent down <649> (5651) from <575> heaven <3772>; which things <3739> the angels <32> desire <1937> (5719) to look <3879> (5658) into <1519>. |
| 1:13 | Wherefore <1352> gird up <328> (5671) the loins <3751> of your <5216> mind <1271>, be sober <3525> (5723), and hope <1679> (5657) to the end <5049> for <1909> the grace <5485> that is to be brought <5342> (5746) unto you <5213> at <1722> the revelation <602> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>; {to the end: Gr. perfectly} |
| 1:14 | As <5613> obedient <5218> children <5043>, not <3361> fashioning yourselves according to <4964> (5730) the former <4386> lusts <1939> in <1722> your <5216> ignorance <52>: |
| 1:15 | But <235> as <2596> he which hath called <2564> (5660) you <5209> is holy <40>, so <2532> be <1096> (5676) ye <846> holy <40> in <1722> all <3956> manner of conversation <391>; |
| 1:16 | Because <1360> it is written <1125> (5769), Be ye <1096> (5634) holy <40>; for <3754> I <1473> am <1510> (5748) holy <40>. |
| 1:17 | And <2532> if <1487> ye call on <1941> (5731) the Father <3962>, who <3588> without respect of persons <678> judgeth <2919> (5723) according to <2596> every man's <1538> work <2041>, pass <390> (5649) the time <5550> of your <5216> sojourning <3940> [here] in <1722> fear <5401>: |
| 1:18 | Forasmuch as ye know <1492> (5761) that <3754> ye were <3084> (0) not <3756> redeemed <3084> (5681) with corruptible things <5349>, [as] silver <694> and <2228> gold <5553>, from <1537> your <5216> vain <3152> conversation <391> [received] by tradition from your fathers <3970>; |
| 1:19 | But <235> with the precious <5093> blood <129> of Christ <5547>, as <5613> of a lamb <286> without blemish <299> and <2532> without spot <784>: |
| 1:20 | Who verily <3303> was foreordained <4267> (5772) before <4253> the foundation <2602> of the world <2889>, but <1161> was manifest <5319> (5685) in <1909> these last <2078> times <5550> for <1223> you <5209>, |
| 1:21 | Who <3588> by <1223> him <846> do believe <4100> (5723) in <1519> God <2316>, that raised <1453> (0) him <846> up <1453> (5660) from <1537> the dead <3498>, and <2532> gave <1325> (5631) him <846> glory <1391>; that <5620> your <5216> faith <4102> and <2532> hope <1680> might be <1511> (5750) in <1519> God <2316>. |
| 1:22 | Seeing ye have purified <48> (5761) your <5216> souls <5590> in <1722> obeying <5218> the truth <225> through <1223> the Spirit <4151> unto <1519> unfeigned <505> love of the brethren <5360>, [see that ye] love <25> (5657) one another <240> with <1537> a pure <2513> heart <2588> fervently <1619>: |
| 1:23 | Being born again <313> (5746), not <3756> of <1537> corruptible <5349> seed <4701>, but <235> of incorruptible <862>, by <1223> the word <3056> of God <2316>, which liveth <2198> (5723) and <2532> abideth <3306> (5723) for <1519> ever <165>. |
| 1:24 | For <1360> all <3956> flesh <4561> [is] as <5613> grass <5528>, and <2532> all <3956> the glory <1391> of man <444> as <5613> the flower <438> of grass <5528>. The grass <5528> withereth <3583> (5681), and <2532> the flower <438> thereof <846> falleth away <1601> (5627): {For: or, For that} |
| 1:25 | But <1161> the word <4487> of the Lord <2962> endureth <3306> (5719) for <1519> ever <165>. And <1161> this <5124> is <2076> (5748) the word <4487> which <3588> by the gospel is preached <2097> (5685) unto <1519> you <5209>. |
