1PE-1:1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus

Christ, to the strangers scattered

throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia,

Asia, and Bithynia,

1PE-1:2 Elect according to the

foreknowledge of God the Father, through

sanctification of the Spirit, unto

obedience and sprinkling of the blood of

Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace,

be multiplied.

1PE-1:3 Blessed [be] the God and Father

of our Lord Jesus Christ, which

according to his abundant mercy hath

begotten us again unto a lively hope by

the resurrection of Jesus Christ from

the dead,

1PE-1:4 To an inheritance

incorruptible, and undefiled, and that

fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for

you,

1PE-1:5 Who are kept by the power of

God through faith unto salvation ready

to be revealed in the last time.

1PE-1:6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice,

though now for a season, if need be, ye

are in heaviness through manifold

temptations:

1PE-1:7 That the trial of your faith,

being much more precious than of gold

that perisheth, though it be tried with

fire, might be found unto praise and

honour and glory at the appearing of

Jesus Christ:

1PE-1:8 Whom having not seen, ye love;

in whom, though now ye see [him] not,

yet believing, ye rejoice with joy

unspeakable and full of glory:

1PE-1:9 Receiving the end of your

faith, [even] the salvation of [your]

souls.

1PE-1:10 Of which salvation the

prophets have inquired and searched

diligently, who prophesied of the grace

[that should come] unto you:

1PE-1:11 Searching what, or what manner

of time the Spirit of Christ which was

in them did signify, when it testified

beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and

the glory that should follow.

1PE-1:12 Unto whom it was revealed,

that not unto themselves, but unto us

they did minister the things, which are

now reported unto you by them that have

preached the gospel unto you with the

Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which

things the angels desire to look into.

1PE-1:13 Wherefore gird up the loins of

your mind, be sober, and hope to the end

for the grace that is to be brought unto

you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

1PE-1:14 As obedient children, not

fashioning yourselves according to the

former lusts in your ignorance:

1PE-1:15 But as he which hath called

you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner

of conversation;

1PE-1:16 Because it is written, Be ye

holy; for I am holy.

1PE-1:17 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:

1PE-1:18 Forasmuch 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;

1PE-1:19 But with the precious blood of

Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and

without spot:

1PE-1:20 Who verily was foreordained

before the foundation of the world, but

was manifest in these last times for

you,

1PE-1:21 Who by him do believe in God,

that raised him up from the dead, and

gave him glory; that your faith and hope

might be in God.

1PE-1:22 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:

1PE-1:23 Being born again, not of

corruptible seed, but of incorruptible,

by the word of God, which liveth and

abideth for ever.

1PE-1:24 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:

1PE-1:25 But the word of the Lord

endureth for ever. And this is the word

which by the gospel is preached unto

you.

1PE-2:1 Wherefore laying aside all

malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies,

and envies, and all evil speakings,

1PE-2:2 As newborn babes, desire the

sincere milk of the word, that ye may

grow thereby:

1PE-2:3 If so be ye have tasted that

the Lord [is] gracious.

1PE-2:4 To whom coming, [as unto] a

living stone, disallowed indeed of men,

but chosen of God, [and] precious,

1PE-2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are

built up a spiritual house, an holy

priesthood, to offer up spiritual

sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus

Christ.

1PE-2:6 Wherefore also it is contained

in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion

a chief corner stone, elect, precious:

and he that believeth on him shall not

be confounded.

1PE-2:7 Unto you therefore which

believe [he is] precious: but unto them

which be disobedient, the stone which

the builders disallowed, the same is

made the head of the corner,

1PE-2:8 And a stone of stumbling, and a

rock of offence, [even to them] which

stumble at the word, being disobedient:

whereunto also they were appointed.

1PE-2:9 But ye [are] a chosen

generation, a royal priesthood, an holy

nation, a peculiar people; that ye

should show forth the praises of him who

hath called you out of darkness into his

marvellous light:

1PE-2:10 Which in time past [were] not

a people, but [are] now the people of

God: which had not obtained mercy, but

now have obtained mercy.

1PE-2:11 Dearly beloved, I beseech

[you] as strangers and pilgrims, abstain

from fleshly lusts, which war against

the soul;

1PE-2:12 Having your conversation

honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas

they speak against you as evildoers,

they may by [your] good works, which

they shall behold, glorify God in the

day of visitation.

1PE-2:13 Submit yourselves to every

ordinance of man for the Lord's sake:

whether it be to the king, as supreme;

1PE-2:14 Or unto governors, as unto

them that are sent by him for the

punishment of evildoers, and for the

praise of them that do well.

1PE-2:15 For so is the will of God,

that with well doing ye may put to

silence the ignorance of foolish men:

1PE-2:16 As free, and not using [your]

liberty for a cloak of maliciousness,

but as the servants of God.

1PE-2:17 Honour all [men]. Love the

brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.

1PE-2:18 Servants, [be] subject to

[your] masters with all fear; not only

to the good and gentle, but also to the

froward.

1PE-2:19 For this [is] thankworthy, if

a man for conscience toward God endure

grief, suffering wrongfully.

1PE-2:20 For what glory [is it], if,

when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye

shall take it patiently? but if, when ye

do well, and suffer [for it], ye take it

patiently, this [is] acceptable with

God.

1PE-2:21 For even hereunto were ye

called: because Christ also suffered for

us, leaving us an example, that ye

should follow his steps:

1PE-2:22 Who did no sin, neither was

guile found in his mouth:

1PE-2:23 Who, when he was reviled,

reviled not again; when he suffered, he

threatened not; but committed [himself]

to him that judgeth righteously:

1PE-2:24 Who his own self bare our sins

in his own body on the tree, that we,

being dead to sins, should live unto

righteousness: by whose stripes ye were

healed.

1PE-2:25 For ye were as sheep going

astray; but are now returned unto the

Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

1PE-3:1 Likewise, ye wives, [be] in

subjection to your own husbands; that,

if any obey not the word, they also may

without the word be won by the

conversation of the wives;

1PE-3:2 While they behold your chaste

conversation [coupled] with fear.

1PE-3:3 Whose adorning let it not be

that outward [adorning] of plaiting the

hair, and of wearing of gold, or of

putting on of apparel;

1PE-3:4 But [let it be] the hidden man

of the heart, in that which is not

corruptible, [even the ornament] of a

meek and quiet spirit, which is in the

sight of God of great price.

1PE-3:5 For after this manner in the

old time the holy women also, who

trusted in God, adorned themselves,

being in subjection unto their own

husbands:

1PE-3:6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham,

calling him lord: whose daughters ye

are, as long as ye do well, and are not

afraid with any amazement.

1PE-3:7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell

with [them] according to knowledge,

giving honour unto the wife, as unto the

weaker vessel, and as being heirs

together of the grace of life; that your

prayers be not hindered.

1PE-3:8 Finally, [be ye] all of one

mind, having compassion one of another,

love as brethren, [be] pitiful, [be]

courteous:

1PE-3:9 Not rendering evil for evil, or

railing for railing: but contrariwise

blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto

called, that ye should inherit a

blessing.

1PE-3:10 For he that will love life,

and see good days, let him refrain his

tongue from evil, and his lips that they

speak no guile:

1PE-3:11 Let him eschew evil, and do

good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.

1PE-3:12 For the eyes of the Lord [are]

over the righteous, and his ears [are

open] unto their prayers: but the face

of the Lord [is] against them that do

evil.

1PE-3:13 And who [is] he that will harm

you, if ye be followers of that which is

good?

1PE-3:14 But and if ye suffer for

righteousness' sake, happy [are ye]: and

be not afraid of their terror, neither

be troubled;

1PE-3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in

your hearts: and [be] ready always to

[give] an answer to every man that

asketh you a reason of the hope that is

in you with meekness and fear:

1PE-3:16 Having a good conscience;

that, whereas they speak evil of you, as

of evildoers, they may be ashamed that

falsely accuse your good conversation in

Christ.

1PE-3:17 For [it is] better, if the

will of God be so, that ye suffer for

well doing, than for evil doing.

1PE-3:18 For Christ also hath once

suffered for sins, the just for the

unjust, that he might bring us to God,

being put to death in the flesh, but

quickened by the Spirit:

1PE-3:19 By which also he went and

preached unto the spirits in prison;

1PE-3:20 Which sometime were

disobedient, when once the longsuffering

of God waited in the days of Noah, while

the ark was a preparing, wherein few,

that is, eight souls were saved by

water.

1PE-3:21 The like figure whereunto

[even] baptism doth also now save us

(not the putting away of the filth of

the flesh, but the answer of a good

conscience toward God,) by the

resurrection of Jesus Christ:

1PE-3:22 Who is gone into heaven, and

is on the right hand of God; angels and

authorities and powers being made

subject unto him.

1PE-4:1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath

suffered for us in the flesh, arm

yourselves likewise with the same mind:

for he that hath suffered in the flesh

hath ceased from sin;

1PE-4:2 That he no longer should live

the rest of [his] time in the flesh to

the lusts of men, but to the will of

God.

1PE-4:3 For the time past of [our] life

may suffice us to have wrought the will

of the Gentiles, when we walked in

lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine,

revellings, banquetings, and abominable

idolatries:

1PE-4:4 Wherein they think it strange

that ye run not with [them] to the same

excess of riot, speaking evil of [you]:

1PE-4:5 Who shall give account to him

that is ready to judge the quick and the

dead.

1PE-4:6 For for this cause was the

gospel preached also to them that are

dead, that they might be judged

according to men in the flesh, but live

according to God in the spirit.

1PE-4:7 But the end of all things is at

hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch

unto prayer.

1PE-4:8 And above all things have

fervent charity among yourselves: for

charity shall cover the multitude of

sins.

1PE-4:9 Use hospitality one to another

without grudging.

1PE-4:10 As every man hath received the

gift, [even so] minister the same one to

another, as good stewards of the

manifold grace of God.

1PE-4:11 If any man speak, [let him

speak] as the oracles of God; if any man

minister, [let him do it] as of the

ability which God giveth: that God in

all things may be glorified through

Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and

dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

1PE-4:12 Beloved, think it not strange

concerning the fiery trial which is to

try you, as though some strange thing

happened unto you:

1PE-4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye

are partakers of Christ's sufferings;

that, when his glory shall be revealed,

ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

1PE-4:14 If ye be reproached for the

name of Christ, happy [are ye]; for the

spirit of glory and of God resteth upon

you: on their part he is evil spoken of,

but on your part he is glorified.

1PE-4:15 But let none of you suffer as

a murderer, or [as] a thief, or [as] an

evildoer, or as a busybody in other

men's matters.

1PE-4:16 Yet if [any man suffer] as a

Christian, let him not be ashamed; but

let him glorify God on this behalf.

1PE-4:17 For the time [is come] that

judgment must begin at the house of God:

and if [it] first [begin] at us, what

shall the end [be] of them that obey not

the gospel of God?

1PE-4:18 And if the righteous scarcely

be saved, where shall the ungodly and

the sinner appear?

1PE-4:19 Wherefore let them that suffer

according to the will of God commit the

keeping of their souls [to him] in well

doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

1PE-5:1 The elders which are among you

I exhort, who am also an elder, and a

witness of the sufferings of Christ, and

also a partaker of the glory that shall

be revealed:

1PE-5:2 Feed the flock of God which is

among you, taking the oversight

[thereof], not by constraint, but

willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of

a ready mind;

1PE-5:3 Neither as being lords over

[God's] heritage, but being ensamples to

the flock.

1PE-5:4 And when the chief Shepherd

shall appear, ye shall receive a crown

of glory that fadeth not away.

1PE-5:5 Likewise, ye younger, submit

yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all [of

you] be subject one to another, and be

clothed with humility: for God resisteth

the proud, and giveth grace to the

humble.

1PE-5:6 Humble yourselves therefore

under the mighty hand of God, that he

may exalt you in due time:

1PE-5:7 Casting all your care upon him;

for he careth for you.

1PE-5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because

your adversary the devil, as a roaring

lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may

devour:

1PE-5:9 Whom resist stedfast in the

faith, knowing that the same afflictions

are accomplished in your brethren that

are in the world.

1PE-5:10 But the God of all grace, who

hath called us unto his eternal glory by

Christ Jesus, after that ye have

suffered a while, make you perfect,

stablish, strengthen, settle [you].

1PE-5:11 To him [be] glory and dominion

for ever and ever. Amen.

1PE-5:12 By Silvanus, a faithful

brother unto you, as I suppose, I have

written briefly, exhorting, and

testifying that this is the true grace

of God wherein ye stand.

1PE-5:13 The [church that is] at

Babylon, elected together with [you],

saluteth you; and [so doth] Marcus my

son.

1PE-5:14 Greet ye one another with a

kiss of charity. Peace [be] with you all

that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
