1 Peter 1:23

1:23 You have been born anew, not from perishable but from imperishable seed, through the living and enduring word of God.

1 Peter 2:23

2:23 When he was maligned, he ¹  did not answer back; when he suffered, he threatened ²  no retaliation, ³  but committed himself to God ⁴  who judges justly.

[2:23]  ¹ tn Grk “who being maligned,” continuing the reference to Christ. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[2:23]  ² tn Grk “he did not threaten, but.”

[2:23]  ³ sn An allusion to Isa 53:7.

[2:23]  ⁴ tn Grk “to the one”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
