Honor all people, love the family of believers, ¹  fear God, honor the king.

Husbands, in the same way, treat your wives with consideration as the weaker partners ¹  and show them honor as fellow heirs of the grace of life. In this way nothing will hinder your prayers. ² 

Such trials show the proven character of your faith, ¹  which is much more valuable than gold – gold that is tested by fire, even though it is passing away ²  – and will bring praise ³  and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. ⁴ 

and maintain good conduct ¹  among the non-Christians, ²  so that though ³  they now malign you as wrongdoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God when he appears. ⁴ 

when they see your pure and reverent conduct. ¹ 

Blessed be ¹  the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By his great mercy he gave us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

So as your fellow elder and a witness of Christ’s sufferings and as one who shares in the glory that will be revealed, I urge the elders among you:

or to governors as those he commissions ¹  to punish wrongdoers and praise ²  those who do good.

who went into heaven and is at the right hand of God ¹  with angels and authorities and powers subject to him. ² 

Then ¹  when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that never fades away.

And God will exalt you in due time, ¹  if you humble yourselves under his mighty hand ² 

Through him you now trust ¹  in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

For all flesh ¹  is like grass and all its glory like the flower of the grass; ²  the grass withers and the flower falls off,

So you who believe see ¹  his value, ²  but for those who do not believe, the stone that the builders rejected has become the ³  cornerstone, ⁴ 

For it says ¹  in scripture, “Look, I lay in Zion a stone, a chosen and priceless cornerstone, ²  and whoever believes ³  in him ⁴  will never ⁵  be put to shame.” ⁶
