1 Peter 4:7-11

Christian Standard Bible

End-Time Ethics

⁷ The end of all things is near;^(A) therefore, be alert and sober-minded^(B) for prayer. ⁸ Above all, maintain constant love^(C) for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins.^{[a](D) 9} Be hospitable^(E) to one another without complaining. ¹⁰ Just as each one has received a gift, use it to serve others,^(F) as good stewards of the varied grace of God. ¹¹ If anyone speaks, let it be as one who speaks God’s words; if anyone serves, let it be from the strength God provides,^(G) so that God may be glorified through Jesus Christ in everything. To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
