1 Pierre 1
Nouvelle Edition de Genève – NEG1979
Adresse et salutation
1 Pierre, apôtre de Jésus-Christ, à ceux qui sont étrangers et dispersés dans le Pont, la Galatie, la Cappadoce, l’Asie et la Bithynie[a], 2 et qui sont élus selon la prescience de Dieu le Père, par la sanctification de l’Esprit, afin qu’ils deviennent obéissants, et qu’ils participent à l’aspersion du sang de Jésus-Christ: Que la grâce et la paix vous soient multipliées!
Une espérance vivante
3 Béni soit Dieu, le Père de notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ, qui, selon sa grande miséricorde, nous a régénérés, pour une espérance vivante, par la résurrection de Jésus-Christ d’entre les morts, 4 pour un héritage qui ne peut ni se corrompre, ni se souiller, ni se flétrir; il vous est réservé dans les cieux, 5 à vous qui, par la puissance de Dieu, êtes gardés par la foi pour le salut prêt à être révélé dans les derniers temps!
6 C’est là ce qui fait votre joie, quoique maintenant, puisqu’il le faut, vous soyez attristés pour un peu de temps par diverses épreuves, 7 afin que l’épreuve de votre foi, plus précieuse que l’or périssable (qui cependant est éprouvé par le feu), ait pour résultat la louange, la gloire et l’honneur, lorsque Jésus-Christ apparaîtra. 8 Vous l’aimez sans l’avoir vu, vous croyez en lui sans le voir encore, vous réjouissant d’une joie merveilleuse et glorieuse, 9 parce que vous obtiendrez le salut de vos âmes pour prix de votre foi.
10 Les prophètes, qui ont prophétisé touchant la grâce qui vous était réservée, ont fait de ce salut l’objet de leurs recherches et de leurs investigations; 11 ils voulaient sonder l’époque et les circonstances marquées par l’Esprit de Christ qui était en eux, et qui attestait d’avance les souffrances de Christ et la gloire dont elles seraient suivies. 12 Il leur fut révélé que ce n’était pas pour eux-mêmes, mais pour vous, qu’ils étaient les dispensateurs de ces choses, que vous ont annoncées maintenant ceux qui vous ont prêché l’Evangile par le Saint-Esprit envoyé du ciel, et dans lesquelles les anges désirent plonger leurs regards.
Exhortation à la sainteté
13 C’est pourquoi, ceignez les reins de votre entendement, soyez sobres, et ayez une entière espérance dans la grâce qui vous sera apportée, lorsque Jésus-Christ apparaîtra. 14 Comme des enfants obéissants, ne vous conformez pas aux convoitises que vous aviez autrefois, quand vous étiez dans l’ignorance. 15 Mais, puisque celui qui vous a appelés est saint, vous aussi soyez saints dans toute votre conduite, 16 selon qu’il est écrit: Vous serez saints, car je suis saint[b].
17 Et si vous invoquez comme Père celui qui juge selon l’œuvre de chacun, sans favoritisme, conduisez-vous avec crainte pendant le temps de votre séjour sur la terre[c]; 18 vous savez que ce n’est pas par des choses périssables, par de l’argent ou de l’or, que vous avez été rachetés de la vaine manière de vivre que vous aviez héritée de vos pères, 19 mais par le sang précieux de Christ, comme d’un agneau sans défaut et sans tache; 20 prédestiné avant la fondation du monde, il fut manifesté à la fin des temps, à cause de vous; 21 par lui, vous croyez en Dieu qui l’a ressuscité des morts et lui a donné la gloire, en sorte que votre foi et votre espérance reposent sur Dieu.
22 Ayant purifié vos âmes en obéissant à la vérité pour avoir un amour fraternel sincère, aimez-vous ardemment les uns les autres, de tout votre cœur, 23 puisque vous avez été régénérés, non par une semence corruptible, mais par une semence incorruptible, par la parole vivante et permanente de Dieu. 24 Car
Toute chair est comme l’herbe,
Et toute sa gloire comme la fleur de l’herbe.
L’herbe sèche, et la fleur tombe;
25 Mais la parole du Seigneur demeure éternellement[d].
Et cette parole est celle qui vous a été annoncée par l’Evangile.

A Living Hope
1 (A)Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ,
To those who reside as (B)exiles, (C)scattered throughout (D)Pontus, (E)Galatia, (F)Cappadocia, (G)Asia, and (H)Bithynia, (I)who are chosen 2 according to the (J)foreknowledge of God the Father, (K)by the sanctifying work of the Spirit, to the (L)obedience of Jesus Christ and the (M)sprinkling of His blood: (N)May grace and peace be multiplied to you.
3 (O)Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who (P)according to His great mercy (Q)has caused us to be born again to (R)a living hope through the (S)resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to obtain an (T)inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and (U)unfading, having been (V)kept in heaven for you, 5 who are (W)protected by the power of God (X)through faith for (Y)a salvation ready (Z)to be revealed in the last time. 6 (AA)In this you greatly rejoice, even though now (AB)for a little while, (AC)if necessary, you have been grieved by (AD)various [a]trials, 7 so that the [b](AE)proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which [c]is perishable, (AF)even though tested by fire, (AG)may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at (AH)the revelation of Jesus Christ. 8 And (AI)though you have not seen Him, you (AJ)love Him, and though you do not see Him now, but believe in Him, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and [d]full of glory, 9 receiving as (AK)the outcome of your faith the salvation of [e]your souls.
10 (AL)Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who (AM)prophesied of the (AN)grace that would come to you, made careful searches and inquiries, 11 [f]inquiring to know what time or what kind of time (AO)the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating as He was (AP)predicting the sufferings of Christ and the glories [g]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 (AQ)proclaimed the gospel to you by (AR)the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things into which (AS)angels long to [h]look.
13 Therefore, having [i](AT)girded your minds for action, [j](AU)being sober in spirit, fix your (AV)hope completely on the (AW)grace [k]to be brought to you at (AX)the revelation of Jesus Christ. 14 As [l](AY)obedient children, not [m](AZ)being conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your (BA)ignorance, 15 but [n](BB)like the Holy One who called you, [o](BC)be holy yourselves also (BD)in all your conduct; 16 because it is written, “(BE)You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
17 And if you (BF)address as Father the One who (BG)impartially (BH)judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves [p](BI)in fear during the time of your (BJ)sojourn, 18 knowing that you were not [q](BK)redeemed with corruptible things like silver or gold from your (BL)futile conduct inherited from your forefathers, 19 but with precious (BM)blood, as of a (BN)lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ. 20 He was (BO)foreknown before (BP)the foundation of the world, but (BQ)appeared [r]in these last times (BR)for the sake of you 21 who through Him are (BS)believers in God, who raised Him from the dead and (BT)gave Him glory, so that your faith and (BU)hope are in God.
22 Since you have (BV)in obedience to the truth (BW)purified your souls for a love of the brothers (BX)without hypocrisy, fervently love one another from [s]the heart, 23 for you have been (BY)born again (BZ)not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, that is, through the living and enduring (CA)word of God. 24 For,
“(CB)All flesh is like grass,
And all its glory like the flower of grass.
The grass withers,
And the flower falls off,
25 (CC)But the word of the Lord endures forever.”
And this is (CD)the word which was [t]proclaimed to you as good news.

Indirizzo e saluto
1 Pietro, apostolo di Gesù Cristo, ai fedeli dispersi nel Ponto, nella Galazia, nella Cappadòcia, nell'Asia e nella Bitinia, eletti 2 secondo la prescienza di Dio Padre, mediante la santificazione dello Spirito, per obbedire a Gesù Cristo e per essere aspersi del suo sangue: grazia e pace a voi in abbondanza.
Introduzione. L'eredità donata dal Padre
3 Sia benedetto Dio e Padre del Signore nostro Gesù Cristo; nella sua grande misericordia egli ci ha rigenerati, mediante la risurrezione di Gesù Cristo dai morti, per una speranza viva, 4 per una eredità che non si corrompe, non si macchia e non marcisce. Essa è conservata nei cieli per voi, 5 che dalla potenza di Dio siete custoditi mediante la fede, per la vostra salvezza, prossima a rivelarsi negli ultimi tempi.
Amore e fedeltà nei contronti del Cristo
6 Perciò siete ricolmi di gioia, anche se ora dovete essere un pò afflitti da varie prove, 7 perché il valore della vostra fede, molto più preziosa dell'oro, che, pur destinato a perire, tuttavia si prova col fuoco, torni a vostra lode, gloria e onore nella manifestazione di Gesù Cristo: 8 voi lo amate, pur senza averlo visto; e ora senza vederlo credete in lui. Perciò esultate di gioia indicibile e gloriosa, 9 mentre conseguite la mèta della vostra fede, cioè la salvezza delle anime.
La rilevazione profetica dello Spirito
10 Su questa salvezza indagarono e scrutarono i profeti che profetizzarono sulla grazia a voi destinata 11 cercando di indagare a quale momento o a quali circostanze accennasse lo Spirito di Cristo che era in loro, quando prediceva le sofferenze destinate a Cristo e le glorie che dovevano seguirle. 12 E fu loro rivelato che non per se stessi, ma per voi, erano ministri di quelle cose che ora vi sono state annunziate da coloro che vi hanno predicato il vangelo nello Spirito Santo mandato dal cielo; cose nelle quali gli angeli desiderano fissare lo sguardo.
Esigenze della nuova vita. Santità del neofita
13 Perciò, dopo aver preparato la vostra mente all'azione, siate vigilanti, fissate ogni speranza in quella grazia che vi sarà data quando Gesù Cristo si rivelerà. 14 Come figli obbedienti, non conformatevi ai desideri d'un tempo, quando eravate nell'ignoranza, 15 ma ad immagine del Santo che vi ha chiamati, diventate santi anche voi in tutta la vostra condotta; 16 poiché sta scritto: Voi sarete santi, perché io sono santo. 17 E se pregando chiamate Padre colui che senza riguardi personali giudica ciascuno secondo le sue opere, comportatevi con timore nel tempo del vostro pellegrinaggio. 18 Voi sapete che non a prezzo di cose corruttibili, come l'argento e l'oro, foste liberati dalla vostra vuota condotta ereditata dai vostri padri, 19 ma con il sangue prezioso di Cristo, come di agnello senza difetti e senza macchia. 20 Egli fu predestinato gia prima della fondazione del mondo, ma si è manifestato negli ultimi tempi per voi. 21 E voi per opera sua credete in Dio, che l'ha risuscitato dai morti e gli ha dato gloria e così la vostra fede e la vostra speranza sono fisse in Dio.
La rigenerazione mediante la Parola
22 Dopo aver santificato le vostre anime con l'obbedienza alla verità, per amarvi sinceramente come fratelli, amatevi intensamente, di vero cuore, gli uni gli altri, 23 essendo stati rigenerati non da un seme corruttibile, ma immortale, cioè dalla parola di Dio viva ed eterna. 24 Poichè
tutti i mortali sono come l'erba
e ogni loro splendore è come fiore d'erba.
L'erba inaridisce, i fiori cadono,
25 ma la parola del Signore rimane in eterno.
E questa è la parola del vangelo che vi è stato annunziato.
1 Peter 1
New International Version
1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ,(A)
To God’s elect,(B) exiles(C) scattered(D) throughout the provinces of Pontus,(E) Galatia,(F) Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia,(G) 2 who have been chosen according to the foreknowledge(H) of God the Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit,(I) to be obedient(J) to Jesus Christ and sprinkled with his blood:(K)
Grace and peace be yours in abundance.(L)
Praise to God for a Living Hope
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!(M) In his great mercy(N) he has given us new birth(O) into a living hope(P) through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,(Q) 4 and into an inheritance(R) that can never perish, spoil or fade.(S) This inheritance is kept in heaven for you,(T) 5 who through faith are shielded by God’s power(U) until the coming of the salvation(V) that is ready to be revealed(W) in the last time. 6 In all this you greatly rejoice,(X) though now for a little while(Y) you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.(Z) 7 These have come so that the proven genuineness(AA) of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire(AB)—may result in praise, glory and honor(AC) when Jesus Christ is revealed.(AD) 8 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him(AE) and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, 9 for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.(AF)
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who spoke(AG) of the grace that was to come to you,(AH) searched intently and with the greatest care,(AI) 11 trying to find out the time and circumstances to which the Spirit of Christ(AJ) in them was pointing when he predicted(AK) the sufferings of the Messiah and the glories that would follow. 12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves but you,(AL) when they spoke of the things that have now been told you by those who have preached the gospel to you(AM) by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven.(AN) Even angels long to look into these things.
Be Holy
13 Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober,(AO) set your hope(AP) on the grace to be brought to you(AQ) when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming.(AR) 14 As obedient(AS) children, do not conform(AT) to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance.(AU) 15 But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do;(AV) 16 for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”[a](AW)
17 Since you call on a Father(AX) who judges each person’s work(AY) impartially,(AZ) live out your time as foreigners(BA) here in reverent fear.(BB) 18 For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed(BC) from the empty way of life(BD) handed down to you from your ancestors, 19 but with the precious blood(BE) of Christ, a lamb(BF) without blemish or defect.(BG) 20 He was chosen before the creation of the world,(BH) but was revealed in these last times(BI) for your sake. 21 Through him you believe in God,(BJ) who raised him from the dead(BK) and glorified him,(BL) and so your faith and hope(BM) are in God.
22 Now that you have purified(BN) yourselves by obeying(BO) the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, love one another deeply,(BP) from the heart.[b] 23 For you have been born again,(BQ) not of perishable seed, but of imperishable,(BR) through the living and enduring word of God.(BS) 24 For,
“All people are like grass,
and all their glory is like the flowers of the field;
the grass withers and the flowers fall,
25 but the word of the Lord endures forever.”[c](BT)
And this is the word that was preached to you.
