Born Again to a Living Hope
3 (A)Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! (B)According to his great mercy, (C)he has caused us to be born again to a living hope (D)through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to (E)an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and (F)unfading, (G)kept in heaven for you, 5 who by God's power are being guarded (H)through faith for a salvation (I)ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by (J)various trials, 7 so that (K)the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes (L)though it is tested by (M)fire—may be found to result in (N)praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 8 (O)Though you have not seen him, you love him. (P)Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, 9 obtaining (Q)the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

Christ the Hope of Jews and Gentiles
8 For I tell you that Christ (F)became a servant to the circumcised to show God's truthfulness, in order (G)to confirm the promises given to the patriarchs, 9 and in order (H)that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written,
(I)“Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles,
and sing to your name.”
10 And again it is said,
(J)“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people.”
11 And again,
(K)“Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles,
and let all the peoples extol him.”
12 And again Isaiah says,
(L)(M)“The root of Jesse will come,
even he who arises to rule the Gentiles;
(N)in him will the Gentiles hope.”
13 May the God of hope fill you with all (O)joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.
