PeterG4074, an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to the strangersG3927 scatteredG1290 throughout PontusG4195, GalatiaG1053, CappadociaG2587, AsiaG773, andG2532 BithyniaG978,
ElectG1588 accordingG2596 to the foreknowledgeG4268 of GodG2316 the FatherG3962, throughG1722 sanctificationG38 of the SpiritG4151, untoG1519 obedienceG5218 andG2532 sprinklingG4473 of the bloodG129 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547: GraceG5485 unto youG5213, andG2532 peaceG1515, be multipliedG4129.
BlessedG2128 be the GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, whichG3588 according toG2596 hisG846 abundantG4183 mercyG1656 hath begottenG313 usG2248 againG313 untoG1519 a livelyG2198 hopeG1680 byG1223 the resurrectionG386 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 fromG1537 the deadG3498, {abundant: Gr. much}
ToG1519 an inheritanceG2817 incorruptibleG862, andG2532 undefiledG283, andG2532 that fadeth not awayG263, reservedG5083 inG1722 heavenG3772 forG1519 youG5209, {for you: or, for us}
WhoG3588 are keptG5432 byG1722 the powerG1411 of GodG2316 throughG1223 faithG4102 untoG1519 salvationG4991 readyG2092 to be revealedG601 inG1722 the lastG2078 timeG2540.
WhereinG1722+G3739 ye greatly rejoiceG21, though nowG737 for a seasonG3641, ifG1487 needG1163 beG2076, ye are in heavinessG3076 throughG1722 manifoldG4164 temptationsG3986:
ThatG2443 the trialG1383 of yourG5216 faithG4102, being muchG4183 more preciousG5093 than of goldG5553 that perishethG622, thoughG1223+G1161 it be triedG1381 with fireG4442, might be foundG2147 untoG1519 praiseG1868 andG2532 honourG5092 andG2532 gloryG1391 atG1722 the appearingG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
WhomG3739 havingG1492 notG3756 seenG1492, ye loveG25; inG1519 whomG3739, though nowG737 ye seeG3708 him notG3361, yetG1161 believingG4100, ye rejoiceG21 with joyG5479 unspeakableG412 andG2532 full of gloryG1392:
ReceivingG2865 the endG5056 of yourG5216 faithG4102, even the salvationG4991 of your soulsG5590.
OfG4012 whichG3739 salvationG4991 the prophetsG4396 have enquiredG1567 andG2532 searched diligentlyG1830, whoG3588 prophesiedG4395 ofG4012 the graceG5485 that should come untoG1519 youG5209:
SearchingG2045 whatG1519+G5101, orG2228 what mannerG4169 of timeG2540 the SpiritG4151 of ChristG5547 whichG3588 was inG1722 themG846 did signifyG1213, when it testified beforehandG4303 the sufferingsG3804 ofG1519 ChristG5547, andG2532 the gloryG1391 that should followG3326+G5023.
Unto whomG3739 it was revealedG601, thatG3754 notG3756 unto themselvesG1438, butG1161 unto usG2254 they did ministerG1247 the thingsG846, whichG3739 areG312 nowG3568 reportedG312 unto youG5213 byG1223 them that have preached the gospelG2097 unto youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 sent downG649 fromG575 heavenG3772; which thingsG3739 the angelsG32 desireG1937 to lookG3879 intoG1519.
WhereforeG1352 gird upG328 the loinsG3751 of yourG5216 mindG1271, be soberG3525, and hopeG1679 to the endG5049 forG1909 the graceG5485 that is to be broughtG5342 unto youG5213 atG1722 the revelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547; {to the end: Gr. perfectly}
AsG5613 obedientG5218 childrenG5043, notG3361 fashioning yourselves according toG4964 the formerG4386 lustsG1939 inG1722 yourG5216 ignoranceG52:
ButG235 asG2596 he which hath calledG2564 youG5209 is holyG40, soG2532 beG1096 yeG846 holyG40 inG1722 allG3956 manner of conversationG391;
BecauseG1360 it is writtenG1125, Be yeG1096 holyG40; forG3754 IG1473 amG1510 holyG40.
AndG2532 ifG1487 ye call onG1941 the FatherG3962, whoG3588 without respect of personsG678 judgethG2919 according toG2596 every man'sG1538 workG2041, passG390 the timeG5550 of yourG5216 sojourningG3940 here inG1722 fearG5401:
Forasmuch as ye knowG1492 thatG3754 ye wereG3084 notG3756 redeemedG3084 with corruptible thingsG5349, as silverG694 andG2228 goldG5553, fromG1537 yourG5216 vainG3152 conversationG391 received by tradition from your fathersG3970;
ButG235 with the preciousG5093 bloodG129 of ChristG5547, asG5613 of a lambG286 without blemishG299 andG2532 without spotG784:
Who verilyG3303 was foreordainedG4267 beforeG4253 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889, butG1161 was manifestG5319 inG1909 these lastG2078 timesG5550 forG1223 youG5209,
WhoG3588 byG1223 himG846 do believeG4100 inG1519 GodG2316, that raisedG1453 himG846 upG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 gaveG1325 himG846 gloryG1391; thatG5620 yourG5216 faithG4102 andG2532 hopeG1680 might beG1511 inG1519 GodG2316.
Seeing ye have purifiedG48 yourG5216 soulsG5590 inG1722 obeyingG5218 the truthG225 throughG1223 the SpiritG4151 untoG1519 unfeignedG505 love of the brethrenG5360, see that ye loveG25 one anotherG240 withG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588 ferventlyG1619:
Being born againG313, notG3756 ofG1537 corruptibleG5349 seedG4701, butG235 of incorruptibleG862, byG1223 the wordG3056 of GodG2316, which livethG2198 andG2532 abidethG3306 forG1519 everG165.
ForG1360 allG3956 fleshG4561 is asG5613 grassG5528, andG2532 allG3956 the gloryG1391 of manG444 asG5613 the flowerG438 of grassG5528. The grassG5528 witherethG3583, andG2532 the flowerG438 thereofG846 falleth awayG1601: {For: or, For that}
ButG1161 the wordG4487 of the LordG2962 endurethG3306 forG1519 everG165. AndG1161 thisG5124 isG2076 the wordG4487 whichG3588 by the gospel is preachedG2097 untoG1519 youG5209.

WhomG3739 havingG1492 notG3756 seenG1492, ye loveG25; inG1519 whomG3739, though nowG737 ye seeG3708 him notG3361, yetG1161 believingG4100, ye rejoiceG21 with joyG5479 unspeakableG412 andG2532 full of gloryG1392:
ButG1161 the endG5056 of all thingsG3956 is at handG1448: be yeG4993 thereforeG3767 soberG4993, andG2532 watchG3525 untoG1519 prayerG4335.
ThatG2443 the trialG1383 of yourG5216 faithG4102, being muchG4183 more preciousG5093 than of goldG5553 that perishethG622, thoughG1223+G1161 it be triedG1381 with fireG4442, might be foundG2147 untoG1519 praiseG1868 andG2532 honourG5092 andG2532 gloryG1391 atG1722 the appearingG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
If I sayH559, I will forgetH7911 my complaintH7879, I will leave offH5800 my heavinessH6440, and comfortH1082 myself:
ManyH7227 are the afflictionsH7451 of the righteousH6662: but the LORDH3068 deliverethH5337 him out of them all.
ButG235 rejoiceG5463, inasmuch asG2526 ye are partakersG2841 of Christ'sG5547 sufferingsG3804; thatG2443, whenG1722 hisG846 gloryG1391 shall be revealedG602, ye may be gladG5463 alsoG2532 with exceeding joyG21.
ButG1161 the GodG2316 of allG3956 graceG5485, whoG3588 hath calledG2564 usG2248 untoG1519 hisG846 eternalG166 gloryG1391 byG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, after that ye have sufferedG3958 a whileG3641+G846, makeG2675 youG5209 perfectG2675, stablishG4741, strengthenG4599, settleG2311 you.
I knowH3045, O LORDH3068, that thy judgmentsH4941 are rightH6664, and that thou in faithfulnessH530 hast afflictedH6031 me. {right: Heb. righteousness}
These thingsG5023 I have spokenG2980 unto youG5213, thatG2443 inG1722 meG1698 ye might haveG2192 peaceG1515. InG1722 the worldG2889 ye shall haveG2192 tribulationG2347: butG235 be of good cheerG2293; IG1473 have overcomeG3528 the worldG2889.
And HannahH2584 prayedH6419, and saidH559, My heartH3820 rejoicethH5970 in the LORDH3068, mine hornH7161 is exaltedH7311 in the LORDH3068: my mouthH6310 is enlargedH7337 over mine enemiesH341; because I rejoiceH8055 in thy salvationH3444.
ForG1063 ourG2257 lightG1645 afflictionG2347, whichG3588 is but for a momentG3910, workethG2716 for usG2254 a farG2596+G5236 more exceedingG1519+G5236 and eternalG166 weightG922 of gloryG1391;
But though he cause griefH3013, yet will he have compassionH7355 according to the multitudeH7230 of his merciesH2617.
ReproachH2781 hath brokenH7665 my heartH3820; and I am full of heavinessH5136: and I lookedH6960 for some to take pityH5110, but there was none; and for comfortersH5162, but I foundH4672 none. {to take…: Heb. to lament with me}
ConfirmingG1991 the soulsG5590 of the disciplesG3101, and exhorting themG3870 to continueG1696 in the faithG4102, andG2532 thatG3754 weG2248 mustG1163 throughG1223 muchG4183 tribulationG2347 enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.
That I may shew forthH5608 all thy praiseH8416 in the gatesH8179 of the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726: I will rejoiceH1523 in thy salvationH3444.
For he doth not afflictH6031 willinglyH3820 nor grieveH3013 the childrenH1121 of menH376. {willingly: Heb. from his heart}
My soulH5315 meltethH1811 for heavinessH8424: strengthenH6965 thou me according unto thy wordH1697. {melteth: Heb. droppeth}
ForG1063 I thinkG1380 thatG3754 GodG2316 hath set forthG584 usG2248 the apostlesG652 lastG2078, asG5613 it were appointed to deathG1935: forG3754 we are madeG1096 a spectacleG2302 unto the worldG2889, andG2532 to angelsG32, andG2532 to menG444. {spectacle: Gr. theatre}
WeG2249 are foolsG3474 forG1223 Christ'sG5547 sakeG1223, butG1161 yeG5210 are wiseG5429 inG1722 ChristG5547; weG2249 are weakG772, butG1161 yeG5210 are strongG2478; yeG5210 are honourableG1741, butG1161 weG2249 are despisedG820.
EvenG891 unto this presentG737 hourG5610 weG3983 bothG2532 hungerG3983, andG2532 thirstG1372, andG2532 are nakedG1130, andG2532 are buffetedG2852, andG2532 have no certain dwellingplaceG790;
AndG2532 labourG2872, workingG2038 with our ownG2398 handsG5495: being reviledG3058, we blessG2127; being persecutedG1377, we suffer itG430:
Being defamedG987, we intreatG3870: we are madeG1096 asG5613 the filthG4027 of the worldG2889, and are the offscouringG4067 of all thingsG3956 untoG2193 this dayG737.
All my bonesH6106 shall sayH559, LORDH3068, who is like unto thee, which deliverestH5337 the poorH6041 from him that is too strongH2389 for him, yea, the poorH6041 and the needyH34 from him that spoilethH1497 him?
IfG1487 ye endureG5278 chasteningG3809, GodG2316 dealethG4374 with youG5213 asG5613 with sonsG5207; forG1063 whatG5101 sonG5207 is heG2076 whomG3739 the fatherG3962 chastenethG3811 notG3756?
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye beG2075 withoutG5565 chastisementG3809, whereofG3739 allG3956 areG1096 partakersG3353, thenG686 are yeG2075 bastardsG3541, andG2532 notG3756 sonsG5207.
FurthermoreG1534+G3303 we have hadG2192 fathersG3962 of ourG2257 fleshG4561 which correctedG3810 us, andG2532 we gave them reverenceG1788: shall weG5293 notG3756 muchG4183 ratherG3123 be in subjectionG5293 unto the FatherG3962 of spiritsG4151, andG2532 liveG2198?
ForG1063 they verilyG3303 forG4314 a fewG3641 daysG2250 chastenedG3811 us afterG2596 their ownG846 pleasureG1380; butG1161 he forG1909 our profitG4851, thatG1519 we might be partakersG3335 of hisG846 holinessG41. {after…: or, as seemed good, or, meet to them}
NowG1161 noG3956+G3756 chasteningG3809 forG4314+G3303 the presentG3918 seemethG1380 to beG1511 joyousG5479, butG235 grievousG3077: neverthelessG1161 afterwardG5305 it yieldethG591 the peaceableG1516 fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 unto them which are exercisedG1128 therebyG1223+G846.
To appointH7760 unto them that mournH57 in ZionH6726, to giveH5414 unto them beautyH6287 for ashesH665, the oilH8081 of joyH8342 for mourningH60, the garmentH4594 of praiseH8416 for the spiritH7307 of heavinessH3544; that they might be calledH7121 treesH352 of righteousnessH6664, the plantingH4302 of the LORDH3068, that he might be glorifiedH6286.
ButG1161 we haveG2192 thisG5126 treasureG2344 inG1722 earthenG3749 vesselsG4632, thatG2443 the excellencyG5236 of the powerG1411 may beG5600 of GodG2316, andG2532 notG3361 ofG1537 usG2257.
We are troubledG2346 onG1722 every sideG3956, yetG235 notG3756 distressedG4729; we are perplexedG639, butG235 notG3756 in despairG1820; {in despair: or, altogether without help, or, means}
PersecutedG1377, butG235 notG3756 forsakenG1459; cast downG2598, butG235 notG3756 destroyedG622;
AlwaysG3842 bearing aboutG4064 inG1722 the bodyG4983 the dyingG3500 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, thatG2443 the lifeG2222 alsoG2532 of JesusG2424 might be made manifestG5319 inG1722 ourG2257 bodyG4983.
For weG2249 whichG3588 liveG2198 areG3860 alwayG104+G1063 deliveredG3860 untoG1519 deathG2288 forG1223 Jesus'G2424 sakeG1223, thatG2443 the lifeG2222 alsoG2532 of JesusG2424 might be made manifestG5319 inG1722 ourG2257 mortalG2349 fleshG4561.
O comeH3212, let us singH7442 unto the LORDH3068: let us make a joyful noiseH7321 to the rockH6697 of our salvationH3468.
ComeG1205 untoG4314 meG3165, allG3956 ye that labourG2872 andG2532 are heavy ladenG5412, and IG2504 will giveG373 youG5209 restG373.
Are theyG1526 ministersG1249 of ChristG5547? (I speakG2980 as a foolG3912) IG1473 am moreG5228; inG1722 laboursG2873 more abundantG4056, inG1722 stripesG4127 above measureG5234, inG1722 prisonsG5438 more frequentG4056, inG1722 deathsG2288 oftG4178.
OfG5259 the JewsG2453 five timesG3999 received IG2983 fortyG5062 stripes saveG3844 oneG3391.
ThriceG5151 was I beaten with rodsG4463, onceG530 was I stonedG3034, thriceG5151 I suffered shipwreckG3489, a night and a dayG3574 I have beenG4160 inG1722 the deepG1037;
In journeyingsG3597 oftenG4178, in perilsG2794 of watersG4215, in perilsG2794 of robbersG3027, in perilsG2794 byG1537 mine own countrymenG1085, in perilsG2794 byG1537 the heathenG1484, in perilsG2794 inG1722 the cityG4172, in perilsG2794 inG1722 the wildernessG2047, in perilsG2794 inG1722 the seaG2281, in perilsG2794 amongG1722 false brethrenG5569;
InG1722 wearinessG2873 andG2532 painfulnessG3449, inG1722 watchingsG70 oftenG4178, inG1722 hungerG3042 andG2532 thirstG1373, inG1722 fastingsG3521 oftenG4178, inG1722 coldG5592 andG2532 nakednessG1132.
Behold, GodH410 is my salvationH3444; I will trustH982, and not be afraidH6342: for the LORDH3050 JEHOVAHH3068 is my strengthH5797 and my songH2176; he also is become my salvationH3444.
AndG2532 he took with himG3880 PeterG4074 andG2532 the twoG1417 sonsG5207 of ZebedeeG2199, and beganG756 to be sorrowfulG3076 andG2532 very heavyG85.
WomenG1135 receivedG2983 theirG846 deadG3498 raised to life againG1537+G386: andG1161 othersG243 were torturedG5178, notG3756 acceptingG4327 deliveranceG629; thatG2443 they might obtainG5177 a betterG2909 resurrectionG386:
AndG1161 othersG2087 hadG2983 trialG3984 of cruel mockingsG1701 andG2532 scourgingsG3148, yeaG1161, moreoverG2089 of bondsG1199 andG2532 imprisonmentG5438:
They were stonedG3034, they were sawn asunderG4249, were temptedG3985, were slainG599 withG1722 the swordG5408+G3162: they wandered aboutG4022 inG1722 sheepskinsG3374 andG1722 goatskinsG122+G1192; being destituteG5302, afflictedG2346, tormentedG2558;
(Of whomG3739 the worldG2889 wasG2258 notG3756 worthyG514:) they wanderedG4105 inG1722 desertsG2047, andG2532 in mountainsG3735, andG2532 in densG4693 andG2532 cavesG3692 of the earthG1093.
ThatG3754 IG3427 haveG2076 greatG3173 heavinessG3077 andG2532 continualG88 sorrow inG3601 myG3450 heartG2588.
MyG3450 brethrenG80, count itG2233 allG3956 joyG5479 whenG3752 ye fallG4045 into diversG4164 temptationsG3986; {temptations: or, trials}
To appointH7760 unto them that mournH57 in ZionH6726, to giveH5414 unto them beautyH6287 for ashesH665, the oilH8081 of joyH8342 for mourningH60, the garmentH4594 of praiseH8416 for the spiritH7307 of heavinessH3544; that they might be calledH7121 treesH352 of righteousnessH6664, the plantingH4302 of the LORDH3068, that he might be glorifiedH6286.
ForG1894 heG2258 longed afterG1971 youG5209 allG3956, andG2532 was full of heavinessG85, becauseG1360 that ye had heardG191 thatG3754 he had been sickG770.
I will greatlyH7797 rejoiceH7797 in the LORDH3068, my soulH5315 shall be joyfulH1523 in my GodH430; for he hath clothedH3847 me with the garmentsH899 of salvationH3468, he hath coveredH3271 me with the robeH4598 of righteousnessH6666, as a bridegroomH2860 deckethH3547 himself with ornamentsH6287, and as a brideH3618 adornethH5710 herself with her jewelsH3627. {decketh: Heb. decketh as a priest}
NowG1161 noG3956+G3756 chasteningG3809 forG4314+G3303 the presentG3918 seemethG1380 to beG1511 joyousG5479, butG235 grievousG3077: neverthelessG1161 afterwardG5305 it yieldethG591 the peaceableG1516 fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 unto them which are exercisedG1128 therebyG1223+G846.
RejoiceG5463, andG2532 be exceeding gladG21: forG3754 greatG4183 is yourG5216 rewardG3408 inG1722 heavenG3772: forG1063 soG3779 persecuted theyG1377 the prophetsG4396 whichG3588 were beforeG4253 youG5216.
Be afflictedG5003, andG2532 mournG3996, andG2532 weepG2799: let yourG5216 laughterG1071 be turnedG3344 toG1519 mourningG3997, andG2532 your joyG5479 toG1519 heavinessG2726.
AndG2532 the angelG32 saidG2036 unto themG846, FearG5399 notG3361: forG1063, beholdG2400, I bringG2097 youG5213 good tidingsG2097 of greatG3173 joyG5479, whichG3748 shall beG2071 to allG3956 peopleG2992.
NotwithstandingG4133 inG1722 thisG5129 rejoiceG5463 notG3361, thatG3754 the spiritsG4151 are subjectG5293 unto youG5213; butG1161 ratherG3123 rejoiceG5463, becauseG3754 yourG5216 namesG3686 are writtenG1125 inG1722 heavenG3772.
AndG2532 yeG5210+G3303 nowG3568 thereforeG3767 haveG2192 sorrowG3077: butG1161 I will seeG3700 youG5209 againG3825, andG2532 yourG5216 heartG2588 shall rejoiceG5463, andG2532 yourG5216 joyG5479 no manG3762 takethG142 fromG575 youG5216.
ByG1223 whomG3739 alsoG2532 we haveG2192 accessG4318 by faithG4102 intoG1519 thisG5026 graceG5485 whereinG1722+G3739 we standG2476, andG2532 rejoiceG2744 inG1909 hopeG1680 of the gloryG1391 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 so, butG235 we alsoG2532 joyG2744 inG1722 GodG2316 throughG1223 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, byG1223 whomG3739 we haveG2983 nowG3568 receivedG2983 the atonementG2643. {atonement: or, reconciliation}
RejoicingG5463 in hopeG1680; patientG5278 in tribulationG2347; continuing instantG4342 in prayerG4335;
AsG5613 sorrowfulG3076, yetG1161 alwayG104 rejoicingG5463; asG5613 poorG4434, yetG1161 makingG4148 manyG4183 richG4148; asG5613 havingG2192 nothingG3367, andG2532 yet possessingG2722 all thingsG3956.
AndG2532 he saidG2046 unto meG3427, MyG3450 graceG5485 is sufficientG714 for theeG4671: forG1063 myG3450 strengthG1411 is made perfectG5048 inG1722 weaknessG769. Most gladlyG2236 thereforeG3767 will IG2744 ratherG3123 gloryG2744 inG1722 myG3450 infirmitiesG769, thatG2443 the powerG1411 of ChristG5547 may restG1981 uponG1909 meG1691.
ThereforeG1352 I take pleasureG2106 inG1722 infirmitiesG769, inG1722 reproachesG5196, inG1722 necessitiesG318, inG1722 persecutionsG1375, inG1722 distressesG4730 forG5228 Christ'sG5547 sakeG5228: forG1063 whenG3752 I am weakG770, thenG5119 amG1510 I strongG1415.
ButG1161 the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 isG2076 loveG26, joyG5479, peaceG1515, longsufferingG3115, gentlenessG5544, goodnessG19, faithG4102,
ForG1063 weG2249 areG2070 the circumcisionG4061, whichG3588 worshipG3000 GodG2316 in the spiritG4151, andG2532 rejoiceG2744 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, andG2532 haveG3982 noG3756 confidenceG3982 inG1722 the fleshG4561.
AndG2532 yeG5210 becameG1096 followersG3402 of usG2257, andG2532 of the LordG2962, having receivedG1209 the wordG3056 inG1722 muchG4183 afflictionG2347, withG3326 joyG5479 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151:
