in
which
ye are
glad

be necessary
, being
made
to
sorrow
in manifold trials,
Wherein
ye greatly
rejoice
, though
now for
a
season
, if need
be, ye
are
in heaviness

be found to
praise ,
and honour ,
and glory ,
in

and
search
out
did
prophets who concerning
the grace toward
you did
prophecy,

which salvation the
prophets have

us they were
ministering
these

told
to
you (through

gospel
unto
you with
the Holy Ghost
sent down
from heaven ;
which things the

desire to look
into
.

up the loins of your mind, being
sober, hope perfectly
upon
the grace that is being
brought
to you in
the revelation of Jesus Christ ,

up the loins of your mind, be

as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves to the former desires
in your ignorance ,
As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according
to the former lusts
in your ignorance :
but according
as He who
did
call
you `
is '
holy, ye also,
become
holy in all behaviour,
But as he which
hath
called
you is holy, so
be
ye holy in all manner
of
conversation;
because it hath
been
written, `Become
ye holy ,
because
I am holy ;'
Because it is
written, Be
ye holy ;

I am holy .

do
call
, who without acceptance
of persons is
judging
according to the
work of
each
, in
fear
the time of your sojourn
pass
ye,
And if ye
call
on the Father, who without respect
of persons judgeth
according to every
man's
work, pass
the time of your sojourning
here
in
fear:
having
known
that ,
not with corruptible things --
silver or
gold --
were
ye
redeemed
from your foolish
behaviour
delivered
by fathers ,

as
ye
know
that ye
were
not redeemed
with corruptible things ,
as
silver and
gold ,
from your vain
conversation
received
by tradition
from
your
fathers ;
but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished
and unspotted
--
Christ's
--

precious blood of
Christ
, as of a lamb without
blemish
and without
spot:

indeed,
before the foundation of the world, and
manifested
in the
last times because
of
you,
Who
verily
was
foreordained
before the foundation of the world, but
was
manifest
in these
last times for
you,
who through
him do believe in God, who
did
raise
out
of
the dead, and glory
to
him did
give,
so
that your faith and hope may
be in God.
Who by
him do believe in God, that
raised
him
up
from
the dead, and gave

Your souls having
purified
in the
obedience
of
the truth through the Spirit to
brotherly
love
unfeigned ,
out
of a pure heart one
another
love
ye
earnestly,
Seeing
ye
have
purified
your souls in obeying
the truth through the Spirit unto
unfeigned love
of the
brethren,
see
that
ye
love
one
another
with
a pure heart fervently:
being begotten
again, not out
of seed
corruptible, but incorruptible, through
a
word of God --
living
and remaining
--
to
the
age;
Being born
again, not of corruptible seed
, but of
incorruptible, by
the
word of God ,
which
liveth
and abideth
for
ever.
because
all flesh `
is '
as grass, and all glory of man as flower of grass ;
wither
did
the grass, and the flower of
it
fell
away ,
For
all flesh is as grass, and all the
glory of man as the
flower of grass .
The grass withereth
, and the flower thereof
falleth
away :
and
the saying
of the Lord doth
remain
--
to
the
age;
and this is the saying
that
was
proclaimed
good
news
to
you.
But
the word
of the Lord endureth
for
ever.
And this is the word
which
by
the
gospel
is
preached
unto
you.
