1 Peter 1:17-21
Christian Standard Bible
17 If you appeal to the Father who judges impartially(A) according to each one’s work,(B) you are to conduct yourselves in reverence(C) during your time living as strangers. 18 For you know that you were redeemed from your empty way of life(D) inherited from your ancestors, not with perishable things like silver or gold,(E) 19 but with the precious blood of Christ,(F) like that of an unblemished and spotless lamb.(G) 20 He was foreknown(H) before the foundation of the world but was revealed in these last times(I) for you. 21 Through him you believe in God,(J) who raised him from the dead(K) and gave him glory,(L) so that your faith and hope are in God.
