American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
but I made supplication for thee, that thy faith fail not; and do thou, when once thou hast turned again, establish thy brethren.
And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east; and the mount of Olives shall be cleft in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
For hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that ye should follow his steps:
who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, threatened not; but committed {Or, his cause}himself to him that judgeth righteously:
who his own self {Or, carried up…to the tree Compare Colossians 2:14; 1 Macc. 4.53 (Greek:).}bare our sins in his body upon the tree, that we, having died unto sins, might live unto righteousness; by whose {Greek: bruise.}stripes ye were healed.
But even if ye should suffer for righteousness' sake, blessed are ye: and fear not their fear, neither be troubled;
For it is better, if the will of God should so will, that ye suffer for well-doing than for evil-doing.
who is on the right hand of God, having gone into heaven; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
Being therefore always of good courage, and knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord
Cast not away therefore your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward.
Ye are of God, my little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.
