1 Peter 2:11--4:11

2:11

Dearly beloved
<27>_,

I beseech
<3870> (5719)

[you] as
<5613>

strangers
<3941>

and
<2532>

pilgrims
<3927>_,

abstain from
<567> (5733)

fleshly
<4559>

lusts
<1939>_,

which
<3748>

war
<4754> (5731)

against
<2596>

the soul
<5590>_;

2:12

Having
<2192> (5723)

your
<5216>

conversation
<391>

honest
<2570>

among
<1722>

the Gentiles
<1484>_:

that
<2443>_,

whereas
<1722> <3739>

they speak against
<2635> (5719)

you
<5216>

as
<5613>

evildoers
<2555>_,

they may
<1392> (0)

by
<1537>

[your] good
<2570>

works
<2041>_,

which they shall behold
<2029> (5660)_,

glorify
<1392> (5661)

God
<2316>

in
<1722>

the day
<2250>

of visitation
<1984>_.

{whereas: or, wherein}

2:13

<3767>@ Submit yourselves
<5293> (5649)

to every
<3956>

ordinance
<2937>

of man
<442>

for
<1223>

the Lord's sake
<2962>_:

whether it be
<1535>

to the king
<935>_,

as
<5613>

supreme
<5242> (5723)_;

2:14

Or
<1535>

unto governors
<2232>_,

as
<5613>

unto them that are sent
<3992> (5746)

by
<1223>

him
<846>

for
<1519> <3303>

the punishment
<1557>

of evildoers
<2555>_,

and
<1161>

for the praise
<1868>

of them that do well
<17>_.

2:15

For
<3754>

so
<3779>

is
<2076> (5748)

the will
<2307>

of God
<2316>_,

that with well doing
<15> (5723)

ye may put to silence
<5392> (5721)

the ignorance
<56>

of foolish
<878>

men
<444>_:

2:16

As
<5613>

free
<1658>_,

and
<2532>

not
<3361>

using
<2192> (5723)

[your] liberty
<1657>

for
<5613>

a cloke
<1942>

of maliciousness
<2549>_,

but
<235>

as
<5613>

the servants
<1401>

of God
<2316>_.

{using: Gr. having}

2:17

Honour
<5091> (5657)

all
<3956>

[men]. Love
<25> (5720)

the brotherhood
<81>_.

Fear
<5399> (5737)

God
<2316>_.

Honour
<5091> (5720)

the king
<935>_.

{Honour all: or, Esteem all}

2:18

Servants
<3610>_,

[be] subject
<5293> (5746)

to [your] masters
<1203>

with
<1722>

all
<3956>

fear
<5401>_;

not
<3756>

only
<3440>

to the good
<18>

and
<2532>

gentle
<1933>_,

but
<235>

also
<2532>

to the froward
<4646>_.

2:19

For
<1063>

this
<5124>

[is] thankworthy
<5485>_,

if
<1487>

a man
<5100>

for
<1223>

conscience
<4893>

toward God
<2316>

endure
<5297> (5719)

grief
<3077>_,

suffering
<3958> (5723)

wrongfully
<95>_.

{thankworthy: or, thank}

2:20

For
<1063>

what
<4169>

glory
<2811>

[is it], if
<1487>_,

when
<2532>

ye be buffeted
<2852> (5746)

for your faults
<264> (5723)_,

ye shall take it patiently
<5278> (5692)_?

but
<235>

if
<1487>_,

when ye do well
<15> (5723)_,

and
<2532>

suffer
<3958> (5723)

[for it], ye take it patiently
<5278> (5692)_,

this
<5124>

[is] acceptable
<5485>

with
<3844>

God
<2316>_.

{acceptable: or, thank}

2:21

For
<1063>

even
<1519>

hereunto
<5124>

were ye called
<2564> (5681)_:

because
<3754>

Christ
<5547>

also
<2532>

suffered
<3958> (5627)

for
<5228>

us
<2257>_,

leaving
<5277> (5723)

us
<2254>

an example
<5261>_,

that
<2443>

ye should follow
<1872> (5661)

his
<846>

steps
<2487>_:

{for us: some read, for you}

2:22

Who
<3739>

did
<4160> (5656)

no
<3756>

sin
<266>_,

neither
<3761>

was guile
<1388>

found
<2147> (5681)

in
<1722>

his
<846>

mouth
<4750>_:

2:23

Who
<3739>_,

when he was reviled
<3058> (5746)_,

reviled
<486> (0)

not
<3756>

again
<486> (5707)_;

when he suffered
<3958> (5723)_,

he threatened
<546> (5707)

not
<3756>_;

but
<1161>

committed
<3860> (5707)

[himself] to him that judgeth
<2919> (5723)

righteously
<1346>_:

{himself: or, his cause}

2:24

Who
<3739>

his own self
<846>

bare
<399> (5656)

our
<2257>

sins
<266>

in
<1722>

his own
<846>

body
<4983>

on
<1909>

the tree
<3586>_,

that
<2443>

we
<2198> (0)_,

being dead
<581> (5637)

to sins
<266>_,

should live
<2198> (5661)

unto righteousness
<1343>_:

by
<3739>

whose
<846>

stripes
<3468>

ye were healed
<2390> (5681)_.

{on: or, to}

2:25

For
<1063>

ye were
<2258> (5713)

as
<5613>

sheep
<4263>

going astray
<4105> (5746)_;

but
<235>

are
<1994> (0)

now
<3568>

returned
<1994> (5648)

unto
<1909>

the Shepherd
<4166>

and
<2532>

Bishop
<1985>

of your
<5216>

souls
<5590>_.

3:1

Likewise
<3668>_,

ye wives
<1135>_,

[be] in subjection
<5293> (5746)

to your own
<2398>

husbands
<435>_;

that
<2443>_,

if any
<1536>

obey not
<544> (5719)

the word
<3056>_,

they
<2770> (0)

also
<2532>

may
<2770> (0)

without
<427>

the word
<3056>

be won
<2770> (5686)

by
<1223>

the conversation
<391>

of the wives
<1135>_;

3:2

While they behold
<2029> (5660)

your
<5216>

chaste
<53>

conversation
<391>

[coupled] with
<1722>

fear
<5401>_.

3:3

Whose
<3739>

adorning
<2889>

let it
<2077> (0)

not
<3756>

be
<2077> (5749)

that outward
<1855>

[adorning] of plaiting
<1708>

the hair
<2359>_,

and
<2532>

of wearing
<4025>

of gold
<5553>_,

or
<2228>

of putting on
<1745>

of apparel
<2440>_;

3:4

But
<235>

[let it be] the hidden
<2927>

man
<444>

of the heart
<2588>_,

in
<1722>

that which is not corruptible
<862>_,

[even the ornament] of a meek
<4239>

and
<2532>

quiet
<2272>

spirit
<4151>_,

which
<3739>

is
<2076> (5748)

in the sight
<1799>

of God
<2316>

of great price
<4185>_.

3:5

For
<1063>

after this manner
<3779>

in the old time
<4218>

the holy
<40>

women
<1135>

also
<2532>_,

who
<3588>

trusted
<1679> (5723)

in
<1909>

God
<2316>_,

adorned
<2885> (5707)

themselves
<1438>_,

being in subjection
<5293> (5746)

unto their own
<2398>

husbands
<435>_:

3:6

Even as
<5613>

Sara
<4564>

obeyed
<5219> (5656)

Abraham
<11>_,

calling
<2564> (5723)

him
<846>

lord
<2962>_:

whose
<3739>

daughters
<5043>

ye are
<1096> (5675)_,

as long as ye do well
<15> (5723)_,

and
<2532>

are
<5399> (0)

not
<3361>

afraid
<5399> (5740)

with any
<3367>

amazement
<4423>_.

{daughters: Gr. children}

3:7

Likewise
<3668>_,

ye husbands
<435>_,

dwell with
<4924> (5723)

[them] according to
<2596>

knowledge
<1108>_,

giving
<632> (5723)

honour
<5092>

unto the wife
<1134>_,

as
<5613>

unto the weaker
<772>

vessel
<4632>_,

and
<2532>

as
<5613>

being heirs together
<4789>

of the grace
<5485>

of life
<2222>_;

that
<1519>

your
<5216>

prayers
<4335>

be
<1581> (0)

not
<3361>

hindered
<1581> (5745)_.

3:8

Finally
<1161> <5056>_,

[be ye] all
<3956>

of one mind
<3675>_,

having compassion one of another
<4835>_,

love as brethren
<5361>_,

[be] pitiful
<2155>_,

[be] courteous
<5391>_:

{love as: or, loving to the}

3:9

Not
<3361>

rendering
<591> (5723)

evil
<2556>

for
<473>

evil
<2556>_,

or
<2228>

railing
<3059>

for
<473>

railing
<3059>_:

but
<1161>

contrariwise
<5121>

blessing
<2129>_;

knowing
<1492> (5761)

that
<3754>

ye are
<2564> (0)

thereunto
<1519> <5124>

called
<2564> (5681)_,

that
<2443>

ye should inherit
<2816> (5661)

a blessing
<2127> (5723)_.

3:10

For
<1063>

he that will
<2309> (5723)

love
<25> (5721)

life
<2222>_,

and
<2532>

see
<1492> (5629)

good
<18>

days
<2250>_,

let him refrain
<3973> (5657)

his
<846>

tongue
<1100>

from
<575>

evil
<2556>_,

and
<2532>

his
<846>

lips
<5491>

that they speak
<2980> (5658)

no
<3361>

guile
<1388>_:

3:11

Let him eschew
<1578> (5657) <575>

evil
<2556>_,

and
<2532>

do
<4160> (5657)

good
<18>_;

let him seek
<2212> (5657)

peace
<1515>_,

and
<2532>

ensue
<1377> (5657)

it
<846>_.

3:12

For
<3754>

the eyes
<3788>

of the Lord
<2962>

[are] over
<1909>

the righteous
<1342>_,

and
<2532>

his
<846>

ears
<3775>

[are open] unto
<1519>

their
<846>

prayers
<1162>_:

but
<1161>

the face
<4383>

of the Lord
<2962>

[is] against
<1909>

them that do
<4160> (5723)

evil
<2556>_.

{against: Gr. upon}

3:13

And
<2532>

who
<5101>

[is] he that will harm
<2559> (5694)

you
<5209>_,

if
<1437>

ye be
<1096> (5638)

followers
<3402>

of that which is good
<18>_?

3:14

But
<235>

and if
<1499>

ye suffer
<3958> (5722)

for
<1223>

righteousness' sake
<1343>_,

happy
<3107>

[are ye]: and
<1161>

be
<5399> (0)

not
<3361>

afraid
<5399> (5676)

of their
<846>

terror
<5401>_,

neither
<3366>

be troubled
<5015> (5686)_;

3:15

But
<1161>

sanctify
<37> (5657)

the Lord
<2962>

God
<2316>

in
<1722>

your
<5216>

hearts
<2588>_:

and
<1161>

[be] ready
<2092>

always
<104>

to
<4314>

[give] an answer
<627>

to every man
<3956>

that asketh
<154> (5723)

you
<5209>

a reason
<3056>

of
<4012>

the hope
<1680>

that is in
<1722>

you
<5213>

with
<3326>

meekness
<4240>

and
<2532>

fear
<5401>_:

{fear: or, reverence}

3:16

Having
<2192> (5723)

a good
<18>

conscience
<4893>_;

that
<2443>_,

whereas
<1722> <3739>

they speak evil
<2635> (5725)

of you
<5216>_,

as
<5613>

of evildoers
<2555>_,

they may be ashamed
<2617> (5686)

that falsely accuse
<1908> (5723)

your
<5216>

good
<18>

conversation
<391>

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>_.

3:17

For
<1063>

[it is] better
<2909>_,

if
<1487>

the will
<2307>

of God
<2316>

be so
<2309> (5719)_,

that ye suffer
<3958> (5721)

for well doing
<15> (5723)_,

than
<2228>

for evil doing
<2554> (5723)_.

3:18

For
<3754>

Christ
<5547>

also
<2532>

hath once
<530>

suffered
<3958> (5627)

for
<4012>

sins
<266>_,

the just
<1342>

for
<5228>

the unjust
<94>_,

that
<2443>

he might bring
<4317> (5632)

us
<2248>

to God
<2316>_,

being put to death
<2289> (5772) <3303>

in the flesh
<4561>_,

but
<1161>

quickened
<2227> (5685)

by the Spirit
<4151>_:

3:19

By
<1722>

which
<3739>

also
<2532>

he went
<4198> (5679)

and preached
<2784> (5656)

unto the spirits
<4151>

in
<1722>

prison
<5438>_;

3:20

Which sometime
<4218>

were disobedient
<544> (5660)_,

when
<3753>

once
<530>

the longsuffering
<3115>

of God
<2316>

waited
<1551> (5711)

in
<1722>

the days
<2250>

of Noah
<3575>_,

while the ark
<2787>

was a preparing
<2680> (5746)_,

wherein
<1519> <3739>

few
<3641>_,

that is
<5123> (5748)_,

eight
<3638>

souls
<5590>

were saved
<1295> (5681)

by
<1223>

water
<5204>_.

3:21

The like figure
<499>

whereunto
<3739>

[even] baptism
<908>

doth
<4982> (0)

also
<2532>

now
<3568>

save
<4982> (5719)

us
<2248>

(not
<3756>

the putting away
<595>

of the filth
<4509>

of the flesh
<4561>_,

but
<235>

the answer
<1906>

of a good
<18>

conscience
<4893>

toward
<1519>

God
<2316>,)

by
<1223>

the resurrection
<386>

of Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>_:

3:22

Who
<3739>

is gone
<4198> (5679)

into
<1519>

heaven
<3772>_,

and is
<2076> (5748)

on
<1722>

the right hand
<1188>

of God
<2316>_;

angels
<32>

and
<2532>

authorities
<1849>

and
<2532>

powers
<1411>

being made subject
<5293> (5651)

unto him
<846>_.

4:1

Forasmuch then as
<3767>

Christ
<5547>

hath suffered
<3958> (5631)

for
<5228>

us
<2257>

in the flesh
<4561>_,

arm
<3695> (5669)

yourselves
<5210>

likewise
<2532>

with the same
<846>

mind
<1771>_:

for
<3754>

he that hath suffered
<3958> (5631)

in
<1722>

the flesh
<4561>

hath ceased
<3973> (5769)

from sin
<266>_;

4:2

That
<1519>

he
<980> (0)

no longer
<3371>

should live
<980> (5658)

the rest
<1954>

of [his] time
<5550>

in
<1722>

the flesh
<4561>

to the lusts
<1939>

of men
<444>_,

but
<235>

to the will
<2307>

of God
<2316>_.

4:3

For
<1063>

the time
<5550>

past
<3928> (5756)

of [our] life
<979>

may suffice
<713>

us
<2254>

to have wrought
<2716> (5664)

the will
<2307>

of the Gentiles
<1484>_,

when we walked
<4198> (5768)

in
<1722>

lasciviousness
<766>_,

lusts
<1939>_,

excess of wine
<3632>_,

revellings
<2970>_,

banquetings
<4224>_,

and
<2532>

abominable
<111>

idolatries
<1495>_:

4:4

Wherein
<1722> <3739>

they think it strange
<3579> (5743)

that ye
<5216>

run
<4936> (5723)

not
<3361>

with [them] to
<1519>

the same
<846>

excess
<401>

of riot
<810>_,

speaking evil of
<987> (5723)

[you]:

4:5

Who
<3739>

shall give
<591> (5692)

account
<3056>

to him that is
<2192> (5723)

ready
<2093>

to judge
<2919> (5658)

the quick
<2198> (5723)

and
<2532>

the dead
<3498>_.

4:6

For
<1063>

for
<1519>

this cause
<5124>

was the gospel preached
<2097> (5681)

also
<2532>

to them that are dead
<3498>_,

that
<2443>

they might be judged
<2919> (5686) <3303>

according to
<2596>

men
<444>

in the flesh
<4561>_,

but
<1161>

live
<2198> (5725)

according to
<2596>

God
<2316>

in the spirit
<4151>_.

4:7

But
<1161>

the end
<5056>

of all things
<3956>

is at hand
<1448> (5758)_:

be ye
<4993> (0)

therefore
<3767>

sober
<4993> (5657)_,

and
<2532>

watch
<3525> (5657)

unto
<1519>

prayer
<4335>_.

4:8

And
<1161>

above
<4253>

all things
<3956>

have
<2192> (5723)

fervent
<1618>

charity
<26>

among
<1519>

yourselves
<1438>_:

for
<3754>

charity
<26>

shall cover
<2572> (5692)

the multitude
<4128>

of sins
<266>_.

{shall: or, will}

4:9

Use hospitality
<5382>

one to another
<1519> <240>

without
<427>

grudging
<1112>_.

4:10

As
<2531>

every man
<1538>

hath received
<2983> (5627)

the gift
<5486>_,

[even so] minister
<1247> (5723)

the same
<846>

one to another
<1519> <1438>_,

as
<5613>

good
<2570>

stewards
<3623>

of the manifold
<4164>

grace
<5485>

of God
<2316>_.

4:11

If any man
<1536>

speak
<2980> (5719)_,

[let him speak] as
<5613>

the oracles
<3051>

of God
<2316>_;

if any man
<1536>

minister
<1247> (5719)_,

[let him do it] as
<5613>

of
<1537>

the ability
<2479>

which
<3739>

God
<2316>

giveth
<5524> (5719)_:

that
<2443>

God
<2316>

in
<1722>

all things
<3956>

may be glorified
<1392> (5747)

through
<1223>

Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>_,

to whom
<3739>

be
<2076> (5748)

praise
<1391>

and
<2532>

dominion
<2904>

for
<1519>

ever
<165>

and ever
<165>_.

Amen
<281>_.
