+
+
+Book 60 1 Peter
+001:001 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the chosen
+ ones who are living as foreigners in the Dispersion
+ in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
+001:002 according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification
+ of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled
+ with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
+001:003 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
+ who according to his great mercy became our father again
+ to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ
+ from the dead,
+001:004 to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that doesn't
+ fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
+001:005 who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation
+ ready to be revealed in the last time.
+001:006 Wherein you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while,
+ if need be, you have been put to grief in various trials,
+001:007 that the proof of your faith, which is more precious than gold
+ that perishes even though it is tested by fire, may be found
+ to result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation
+ of Jesus Christ--
+001:008 whom not having known you love; in whom, though now you
+ don't see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy
+ unspeakable and full of glory--
+001:009 receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
+001:010 Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched
+ diligently, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
+001:011 searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ,
+ which was in them, pointed to, when he predicted the sufferings
+ of Christ, and the glories that would follow them.
+001:012 To them it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you,
+ they ministered these things, which now have been announced
+ to you through those who preached the Good News to you
+ by the Holy Spirit sent out from heaven; which things angels
+ desire to look into.
+001:013 Therefore, prepare your minds for action,{literally, "gird up
+ the waist of your mind"} be sober and set your hope fully
+ on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation
+ of Jesus Christ--
+001:014 as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according
+ to your former lusts as in your ignorance,
+001:015 but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be
+ holy in all of your behavior;
+001:016 because it is written, "You shall be holy; for I
+ am holy."{Leviticus 11:44-45}
+001:017 If you call on him as Father, who without respect of persons
+ judges according to each man's work, pass the time of your
+ living as foreigners here in reverent fear:
+001:018 knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things,
+ with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed
+ down from your fathers,
+001:019 but with precious blood, as of a faultless and pure lamb,
+ the blood of Christ;
+001:020 who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world,
+ but was revealed at the end of times for your sake,
+001:021 who through him are believers in God, who raised him from
+ the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope
+ might be in God.
+001:022 Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to
+ the truth through the Spirit in sincere brotherly affection,
+ love one another from the heart fervently:
+001:023 having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible,
+ through the word of God, which lives and remains forever.
+001:024 For, "All flesh is like grass, and all of man's glory like the
+ flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;
+001:025 but the Lord's word endures forever."{Isaiah 40:6-8} This
+ is the word of Good News which was preached to you.
+002:001 Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies,
+ envies, and all evil speaking,
+002:002 as newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the Word,
+ that you may grow thereby,
+002:003 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious:
+002:004 coming to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men,
+ but chosen by God, precious.
+002:005 You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house,
+ to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices,
+ acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
+002:006 Because it is contained in Scripture, "Behold, I lay
+ in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen, and precious:
+ He who believes in him will not be disappointed."{Isaiah 28:16}
+002:007 For you who believe therefore is the honor, but for those who
+ are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected,
+ has become the chief cornerstone,"{Psalm 118:22}
+002:008 and, "a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense."{Isaiah
+ 8:14} For they stumble at the word, being disobedient,
+ to which also they were appointed.
+002:009 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,
+ a people for God's own possession, that you may proclaim
+ the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into
+ his marvelous light:
+002:010 who in time past were no people, but now are God's people,
+ who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
+002:011 Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, to abstain
+ from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
+002:012 having good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they
+ speak against you as evil-doers, they may by your good works,
+ which they see, glorify God in the day of visitation.
+002:013 Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for
+ the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;
+002:014 or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evil-doers
+ and for praise to those who do well.
+002:015 For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put
+ to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
+002:016 as free, and not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness,
+ but as bondservants of God.
+002:017 Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God.
+ Honor the king.
+002:018 Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all fear;
+ not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.
+002:019 For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly,
+ because of conscience toward God.
+002:020 For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating?
+ But if, when you do well, you patiently endure suffering,
+ this is commendable with God.
+002:021 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us,
+ leaving you{TR reads "us" instead of "you"} an example,
+ that you should follow his steps,
+002:022 who did not sin, "neither was deceit found in his mouth."{Isaiah 53:9}
+002:023 Who, when he was cursed, didn't curse back. When he suffered,
+ didn't threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously;
+002:024 who his own self bore our sins in his body on the tree,
+ that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness;
+ by whose stripes you were healed.
+002:025 For you were going astray like sheep; but now have returned to
+ the Shepherd and Overseer{"Overseer" is from the Greek episkopon,
+ which can mean overseer, curator, guardian, or superintendent.}
+ of your souls.
+003:001 In like manner, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands;
+ so that, even if any don't obey the Word, they may be won
+ by the behavior of their wives without a word;
+003:002 seeing your pure behavior in fear.
+003:003 Let your beauty be not just the outward adorning of braiding
+ the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting
+ on fine clothing;
+003:004 but in the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible
+ adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is in the sight
+ of God very precious.
+003:005 For this is how the holy women before, who hoped in God also
+ adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:
+003:006 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose children you
+ now are, if you do well, and are not put in fear by any terror.
+003:007 You husbands, in like manner, live with your wives according
+ to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel,
+ as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your
+ prayers may not be hindered.
+003:008 Finally, be all like-minded, compassionate, loving as
+ brothers, tenderhearted, courteous,
+003:009 not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for reviling;
+ but instead blessing; knowing that to this were you called,
+ that you may inherit a blessing.
+003:010 For, "He who would love life, and see good days, let him keep
+ his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit.
+003:011 Let him turn away from evil, and do good. Let him seek peace,
+ and pursue it.
+003:012 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears
+ open to their prayer; but the face of the Lord is against
+ those who do evil."{Psalm 34:12-16}
+003:013 Now who is he who will harm you, if you become imitators
+ of that which is good?
+003:014 But even if you should suffer for righteousness'
+ sake, you are blessed. "Don't fear what they fear,
+ neither be troubled."{Isaiah 8:12}
+003:015 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts; and always be ready
+ to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning
+ the hope that is in you, with humility and fear:
+003:016 having a good conscience; that, while you are spoken against
+ as evildoers, they may be disappointed who curse your good
+ manner of life in Christ.
+003:017 For it is better, if it is God's will, that you suffer for doing
+ well than for doing evil.
+003:018 Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous
+ for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God;
+ being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;
+003:019 in which he also went and preached to the spirits in prison,
+003:020 who before were disobedient, when God waited patiently
+ in the days of Noah, while the ark was being built.
+ In it, few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.
+003:021 This is a symbol of baptism, which now saves you--
+ not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer
+ of a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection
+ of Jesus Christ,
+003:022 who is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven,
+ angels and authorities and powers being made subject to him.
+004:001 Forasmuch then as Christ suffered for us in the flesh,
+ arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered
+ in the flesh has ceased from sin;
+004:002 that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh
+ for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.
+004:003 For we have spent enough of our past time doing the desire
+ of the Gentiles, and having walked in lewdness, lusts,
+ drunken binges, orgies, carousings, and abominable idolatries.
+004:004 They think it is strange that you don't run with them into
+ the same excess of riot, blaspheming:
+004:005 who will give account to him who is ready to judge the living
+ and the dead.
+004:006 For to this end the Good News was preached even to the dead,
+ that they might be judged indeed as men in the flesh,
+ but live as to God in the spirit.
+004:007 But the end of all things is near. Therefore be of sound mind,
+ self-controlled, and sober in prayer.
+004:008 And above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves,
+ for love covers a multitude of sins.
+004:009 Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.
+004:010 As each has received a gift, employ it in serving one another,
+ as good managers of the grace of God in its various forms.
+004:011 If anyone speaks, let it be as it were the very words of God.
+ If anyone serves, let it be as of the strength which God supplies,
+ that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ,
+ to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
+004:012 Beloved, don't be astonished at the fiery trial which has
+ come upon you, to test you, as though a strange thing
+ happened to you.
+004:013 But because you are partakers of Christ's sufferings, rejoice;
+ that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice
+ with exceeding joy.
+004:014 If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed;
+ because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you.
+ On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.
+004:015 For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief,
+ or an evil doer, or a meddler in other men's matters.
+004:016 But if one of you suffers for being a Christian, let him not
+ be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this matter.
+004:017 For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household
+ of God. If it begins first with us, what will happen
+ to those who don't obey the Good News of God?
+004:018 "If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will happen
+ to the ungodly and the sinner?"{Proverbs 11:31}
+004:019 Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will
+ of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to
+ a faithful Creator.
+005:001 I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder, and a witness
+ of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory
+ that will be revealed.
+005:002 Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising
+ the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily,
+ not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
+005:003 neither as lording it over the charge allotted to you,
+ but making yourselves examples to the flock.
+005:004 When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown
+ of glory that doesn't fade away.
+005:005 Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder.
+ Yes, all of you gird yourselves with humility, to subject
+ yourselves to one another; for "God resists the proud,
+ but gives grace to the humble."{Proverbs 3:34}
+005:006 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God,
+ that he may exalt you in due time;
+005:007 casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
+005:008 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary
+ the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom
+ he may devour.
+005:009 Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers
+ who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
+005:010 But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal
+ glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while,
+ perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
+005:011 To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
+005:012 Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him,
+ I have written to you briefly, exhorting, and testifying
+ that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
+005:013 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you;
+ and so does Mark, my son.
+005:014 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to you all
+ who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

+Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we usually do not
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
+even years after the official publication date.
+
+Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
+midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
+The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at
+Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month. A
+preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
+and editing by those who wish to do so.
+
+Most people start at our Web sites at:

+
+These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
+Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
+eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
+
+
+Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement
+can get to them as follows, and just download by date. This is
+also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the

+
+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. Our
+projected audience is one hundred million readers. If the value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
+files per month: 1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
