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.

And thusH3602 shall ye eatH398 it; with your loinsH4975 girdedH2296, your shoesH5275 on your feetH7272, and your staffH4731 in your handH3027; and ye shall eatH398 it in hasteH2649: it is the LORD'SH3068 passoverH6453.

And the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was on ElijahH452; and he girded upH8151 his loinsH4975, and ranH7323 beforeH6440 AhabH256 to the entranceH935 of JezreelH3157. {to the…: Heb. till thou come to Jezreel}
Be soberG3525, be vigilantG1127; becauseG3754 yourG5216 adversaryG476 the devilG1228, asG5613 a roaringG5612 lionG3023, walketh aboutG4043, seekingG2212 whomG5101 he may devourG2666:
ButG1161 sanctifyG37 the LordG2962 GodG2316 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588: andG1161 be readyG2092 alwaysG104 toG4314 give an answerG627 to every manG3956 that askethG154 youG5209 a reasonG3056 ofG4012 the hopeG1680 that is inG1722 youG5213 withG3326 meeknessG4240 andG2532 fearG5401: {fear: or, reverence}
EvenG2596 thusG5024 shall it beG2071 in the dayG3739+G2250 when the SonG5207 of manG444 is revealedG601.
Then he saidH559 to GehaziH1522, Gird upH2296 thy loinsH4975, and takeH3947 my staffH4938 in thine handH3027, and go thy wayH3212: if thou meetH4672 any manH376, saluteH1288 him not; and if anyH376 saluteH1288 thee, answer him not againH6030: and layH7760 my staffH4938 upon the faceH6440 of the childH5288.
AndG1161 take heedG4337 to yourselvesG1438, lest at any timeG3379 yourG5216 heartsG2588 be overchargedG925 withG1722 surfeitingG2897, andG2532 drunkennessG3178, andG2532 caresG3308 of this lifeG982, andG2532 so thatG1565 dayG2250 comeG2186 uponG1909 youG5209 unawaresG160.
ForG1063 whatsoever thingsG3745 were written aforetimeG4270 were writtenG4270 forG1519 ourG2251 learningG1319, thatG2443 weG2192 throughG1223 patienceG5281 andG2532 comfortG3874 of the scripturesG1124 might haveG2192 hopeG1680.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of patienceG5281 andG2532 consolationG3874 grantG1325 youG5213 to beG846 likemindedG5426 oneG240 toward anotherG1722+G240 accordingG2596 to ChristG5547 JesusG2424: {according to: or, after the example of}
ThatG2443 ye mayG1392 with one mindG3661 andG1722 oneG1520 mouthG4750 glorifyG1392 GodG2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1352 receive yeG4355 one anotherG240, asG2531+G2532 ChristG5547 alsoG2531 receivedG4355 usG2248 toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316.
NowG1161 I sayG3004 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 wasG1096 a ministerG1249 of the circumcisionG4061 forG5228 the truthG225 of GodG2316, toG1519 confirmG950 the promisesG1860 made unto the fathersG3962:
AndG1161 that the GentilesG1484 might glorifyG1392 GodG2316 forG5228 his mercyG1656; asG2531 it is writtenG1125, ForG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 I will confessG1843 to theeG4671 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, andG2532 singG5567 unto thyG4675 nameG3686.
AndG2532 againG3825 he saithG3004, Rejoice, yeG2165 GentilesG1484, withG3326 hisG846 peopleG2992.
AndG2532 againG3825, PraiseG134 the LordG2962, allG3956 yeG134 GentilesG1484; andG2532 laudG1867 himG846, all yeG3956 peopleG2992.
AndG2532 againG3825, EsaiasG2268 saithG3004, There shall beG2071 a rootG4491 of JesseG2421, andG2532 he that shall riseG450 to reign overG757 the GentilesG1484; inG1909 himG846 shallG1679 the GentilesG1484 trustG1679.
NowG1161 the GodG2316 of hopeG1680 fillG4137 youG5209 with allG3956 joyG5479 andG2532 peaceG1515 inG1722 believingG4100, thatG1519 yeG5209 may aboundG4052 inG1722 hopeG1680, throughG1722 the powerG1411 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
So thatG5620 yeG5209 come behindG5302 inG1722 noG3361+G3367 giftG5486; waiting forG553 the comingG602 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {coming: Gr. revelation}
Gird upH247 now thy loinsH2504 like a manH1397; for I will demandH7592 of thee, and answerH3045 thou me. {answer…: Heb. make me know}
ForG1063 asG5613 a snareG3803 shall it comeG1904 onG1909 allG3956 them that dwellG2521 onG1909 the faceG4383 of the wholeG3956 earthG1093.
AndG1161 nowG3570 abidethG3306 faithG4102, hopeG1680, charityG26, theseG5023 threeG5140; butG1161 the greatestG3187 of theseG5130 is charityG26.
AndG2532 to youG5213 who are troubledG2346 restG425 withG3326 usG2257, whenG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 shall be revealedG602 fromG575 heavenG3772 withG3326 hisG846 mightyG1411 angelsG32, {his…: Gr. the angels of his power}
Gird upH247 thy loinsH2504 now like a manH1397: I will demandH7592 of thee, and declareH3045 thou unto me.
Let us walkG4043 honestlyG2156, asG5613 inG1722 the dayG2250; notG3361 in riotingG2970 andG2532 drunkennessG3178, notG3361 in chamberingG2845 andG2532 wantonnessG766, notG3361 in strifeG2054 andG2532 envyingG2205. {honestly: or, decently}
ButG1161 letG3525 usG2249, who areG5607 of the dayG2250, be soberG3525, putting onG1746 the breastplateG2382 of faithG4102 andG2532 loveG26; andG2532 for an helmetG4030, the hopeG1680 of salvationG4991.
HenceforthG3063 there is laid upG606 for meG3427 a crownG4735 of righteousnessG1343, whichG3739 the LordG2962, the righteousG1342 judgeG2923, shall giveG591 meG3427 atG1722 thatG1565 dayG2250: andG1161 notG3756 to meG1698 onlyG3440, butG235 unto all themG3956 alsoG2532 that loveG25 hisG846 appearingG2015.
And righteousnessH6664 shall be the girdleH232 of his loinsH4975, and faithfulnessH530 the girdleH232 of his reinsH2504.
ThereforeG686+G3767 let usG2518 notG3361 sleepG2518, asG5613+G2532 do othersG3062; butG235 let us watchG1127 andG2532 be soberG3525.
ButG1161 ChristG5547 asG5613 a sonG5207 overG1909 his ownG846 houseG3624; whoseG3739 houseG3624 areG2070 weG2249, ifG1437+G4007 we hold fastG2722 the confidenceG3954 andG2532 the rejoicingG2745 of the hopeG1680 firmG949 untoG3360 the endG5056.
ForG1063 the graceG5485 of GodG2316 that bringeth salvationG4992 hath appearedG2014 to allG3956 menG444, {hath…: or, to all men, hath appeared}
TeachingG3811 usG2248 thatG2443, denyingG720 ungodlinessG763 andG2532 worldlyG2886 lustsG1939, we should liveG2198 soberlyG4996+G2532, righteouslyG1346, andG2532 godlyG2153, inG1722 this presentG3568 worldG165;
Looking forG4327 that blessedG3107 hopeG1680, andG2532 the gloriousG1391 appearingG2015 of the greatG3173 GodG2316 andG2532 ourG2257 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547; {glorious…: Gr. the appearance of the glory of the great God, and of our Saviour Jesus Christ}
Thou therefore gird upH247 thy loinsH4975, and ariseH6965, and speakH1696 unto them all that I commandH6680 thee: be not dismayedH2865 at their facesH6440, lest I confoundH2865 thee beforeH6440 them. {confound: or, break to pieces}
ForG1063 they that sleepG2518 sleepG2518 in the nightG3571; andG2532 they that be drunkenG3182 are drunkenG3184 in the nightG3571.
WhichG3739 hope we haveG2192 asG5613 an anchorG45 of the soulG5590, bothG5037 sureG804 andG2532 stedfastG949, andG2532 which enterethG1525 intoG1519 that withinG2082 the veilG2665;
SoG3779 ChristG5547 was onceG530 offeredG4374 toG1519 bearG399 the sinsG266 of manyG4183; and unto them that lookG553 for himG846 shall he appearG3700+G1537 the second timeG1208 withoutG5565 sinG266 untoG1519 salvationG4991.
AndG2532 every manG3956 that hathG2192 thisG5026 hopeG1680 inG1909 himG846 purifiethG48 himselfG1438, even asG2531 heG1565 isG2076 pureG53.
CastG577 notG3361 awayG577 thereforeG3767 yourG5216 confidenceG3954, whichG3748 hathG2192 greatG3173 recompence of rewardG3405.
