1 Peter 3:8--4:19

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>_.

4:12

Beloved
<27>_,

think it
<3579> (0)

not
<3361>

strange
<3579> (5744)

concerning the
<5213>

fiery trial
<4451>

which
<1722>

is
<1096> (5740)

to
<4314>

try
<3986>

you
<5213>_,

as
<5613>

though some strange thing
<3581>

happened
<4819> (5723)

unto you
<5213>_:

4:13

But
<235>

rejoice
<5463> (5720)_,

inasmuch as
<2526>

ye are partakers
<2841> (5719)

of Christ's
<5547>

sufferings
<3804>_;

that
<2443>_,

when
<1722>

his
<846>

glory
<1391>

shall be revealed
<602>_,

ye may be glad
<5463> (5647)

also
<2532>

with exceeding joy
<21> (5740)_.

4:14

If
<1487>

ye be reproached
<3679> (5743)

for
<1722>

the name
<3686>

of Christ
<5547>_,

happy
<3107>

[are ye]; for
<3754>

the spirit
<4151>

of glory
<1391>

and
<2532>

of God
<2316>

resteth
<373> (5731)

upon
<1909>

you
<5209>_:

on
<2596> <3303>

their part
<846>

he is evil spoken of
<987> (5743)_,

but
<1161>

on
<2596>

your part
<5209>

he is glorified
<1392> (5743)_.

4:15

But
<1063>

let
<3958> (0)

none
<3361> <5100>

of you
<5216>

suffer
<3958> (5720)

as
<5613>

a murderer
<5406>_,

or
<2228>

[as] a thief
<2812>_,

or
<2228>

[as] an evildoer
<2555>_,

or
<2228>

as
<5613>

a busybody in other men's matters
<244>_.

4:16

Yet
<1161>

if
<1487>

[any man suffer] as
<5613>

a Christian
<5546>_,

let him
<153> (0)

not
<3361>

be ashamed
<153> (5744)_;

but
<1161>

let him glorify
<1392> (5720)

God
<2316>

on
<1722>

this
<5129>

behalf
<3313>_.

4:17

For
<3754>

the time
<2540>

[is come] that judgment
<2917>

must begin
<756> (5670)

at
<575>

the house
<3624>

of God
<2316>_:

and
<1161>

if
<1487>

[it] first
<4412>

[begin] at
<575>

us
<2257>_,

what
<5101>

shall the end
<5056>

[be] of them that obey not
<544> (5723)

the gospel
<2098>

of God
<2316>_?

4:18

And
<2532>

if
<1487>

the righteous
<1342>

scarcely
<3433>

be saved
<4982> (5743)_,

where
<4226>

shall
<5316> (0)

the ungodly
<765>

and
<2532>

the sinner
<268>

appear
<5316> (5695)_?

4:19

Wherefore
<5620> <2532>

let
<3908> (0)

them that suffer
<3958> (5723)

according to
<2596>

the will
<2307>

of God
<2316>

commit the keeping
<3908> (5744)

of their
<1438>

souls
<5590>

[to him] in
<1722>

well doing
<16>_,

as
<5613>

unto a faithful
<4103>

Creator
<2939>_.
