1 Peter 4:5

4:5 They will face a reckoning before ¹  Jesus Christ ²  who stands ready to judge the living and the dead.

1 Peter 3:15

3:15 But set Christ ³  apart ⁴  as Lord in your hearts and always be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks about the hope you possess. ⁵ 

¹ tn Grk “give an account to.”

² tn Grk “the one”; the referent (Jesus Christ) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³ tc Most later mss (P Ï) have θεόν (qeon, “God”) instead of Χριστόν (Criston; “Christ”) here. But Χριστόν is widely supported by excellent and early witnesses (Ì⁷² א A B C Ψ 33 1739 al latt sy co), and as a less common idiom better explains the rise of the other reading.

⁴ tn Or “sanctify Christ as Lord.”

⁵ tn Grk “the hope in you.”
