1 Peter 2:21-25

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²¹ For unto this are you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example that you should follow his steps.

²² Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth.

²³ Who, when he was reviled, did not revile: when he suffered, he threatened not: but delivered himself to him that judged him unjustly.

²⁴ Who his own self bore our sins in his body upon the tree: that we, being dead to sins, should live to justice: by whose stripes you were healed.

²⁵ For you were as sheep going astray; but you are now converted to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.
