1 Peter 1:10-25
Legacy Standard Bible

10 (A)Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who (B)prophesied of the (C)grace that would come to you, made careful searches and inquiries, 11 [a]inquiring to know what time or what kind of time (D)the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating as He was (E)predicting the sufferings of Christ and the glories [b]to follow. 12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves, but you, in these things which now have been declared to you through those who (F)proclaimed the gospel to you by (G)the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things into which (H)angels long to [c]look.

13 Therefore, having [d](I)girded your minds for action, [e](J)being sober in spirit, fix your (K)hope completely on the (L)grace [f]to be brought to you at (M)the revelation of Jesus Christ. 14 As [g](N)obedient children, not [h](O)being conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your (P)ignorance, 15 but [i](Q)like the Holy One who called you, [j](R)be holy yourselves also (S)in all your conduct; 16 because it is written, “(T)You shall be holy, for I am holy.”

17 And if you (U)address as Father the One who (V)impartially (W)judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves [k](X)in fear during the time of your (Y)sojourn, 18 knowing that you were not [l](Z)redeemed with corruptible things like silver or gold from your (AA)futile conduct inherited from your forefathers, 19 but with precious (AB)blood, as of a (AC)lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ. 20 He was (AD)foreknown before (AE)the foundation of the world, but (AF)appeared [m]in these last times (AG)for the sake of you 21 who through Him are (AH)believers in God, who raised Him from the dead and (AI)gave Him glory, so that your faith and (AJ)hope are in God.

22 Since you have (AK)in obedience to the truth (AL)purified your souls for a love of the brothers (AM)without hypocrisy, fervently love one another from [n]the heart, 23 for you have been (AN)born again (AO)not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, that is, through the living and enduring (AP)word of God. 24 For,

“(AQ)All flesh is like grass,
And all its glory like the flower of grass.
The grass withers,
And the flower falls off,
25 (AR)But the word of the Lord endures forever.”

And this is (AS)the word which was [o]proclaimed to you as good news.
