1 Peter 2:8-25

2:8

And
<2532>

a stone
<3037>

of stumbling
<4348>_,

and
<2532>

a rock
<4073>

of offence
<4625>_,

[even to them] which
<3739>

stumble
<4350> (5719)

at the word
<3056>_,

being disobedient
<544> (5723)_:

whereunto
<1519> <3739>

also
<2532>

they were appointed
<5087> (5681)_.

2:9

But
<1161>

ye
<5210>

[are] a chosen
<1588>

generation
<1085>_,

a royal
<934>

priesthood
<2406>_,

an holy
<40>

nation
<1484>_,

a peculiar
<1519> <4047>

people
<2992>_;

that
<3704>

ye should shew forth
<1804> (5661)

the praises
<703>

of him who hath called
<2564> (5660)

you
<5209>

out of
<1537>

darkness
<4655>

into
<1519>

his
<846>

marvellous
<2298>

light
<5457>_:

{peculiar: or, purchased} {praises: or, virtues}

2:10

Which
<3588>

in time past
<4218>

[were] not
<3756>

a people
<2992>_,

but
<1161>

[are] now
<3568>

the people
<2992>

of God
<2316>_:

which
<3588>

had
<1653> (0)

not
<3756>

obtained mercy
<1653> (5772)_,

but
<1161>

now
<3568>

have obtained mercy
<1653> (5685)_.

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>_.
