1 Peter 1:10-16

English Standard Version

¹⁰ Concerning this salvation, ^(A)the prophets who prophesied about the grace that was to be yours searched and inquired carefully, ¹¹ inquiring ^(B)what person or time^{[a] (C)}the Spirit of Christ in them was indicating ^(D)when he predicted ^(E)the sufferings of Christ and the subsequent glories. ^12 (F)It was revealed to them that ^(G)they were serving not themselves but you, in the things that have now been announced to you through those who preached the good news to you ^(H)by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, ^(I)things into which angels long to look.

Called to Be Holy

¹³ Therefore, ^(J)preparing your minds for action,^[b] and ^(K)being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. ¹⁴ As obedient children, ^(L)do not be conformed to the passions ^(M)of your former ignorance, ¹⁵ but ^(N)as he who called you is holy, you also be holy ^(O)in all your conduct, ¹⁶ since it is written, ^(P)“You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
