1 Peter 4:15-17
New King James Version
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a [a]busybody in other people’s matters. 16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this [b]matter.
17 For the time has come (A)for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, (B)what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?
