1 Peter 1:17-21
Legacy Standard Bible
17 And if you (A)address as Father the One who (B)impartially (C)judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves [a](D)in fear during the time of your (E)sojourn, 18 knowing that you were not [b](F)redeemed with corruptible things like silver or gold from your (G)futile conduct inherited from your forefathers, 19 but with precious (H)blood, as of a (I)lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ. 20 He was (J)foreknown before (K)the foundation of the world, but (L)appeared [c]in these last times (M)for the sake of you 21 who through Him are (N)believers in God, who raised Him from the dead and (O)gave Him glory, so that your faith and (P)hope are in God.

Evangelical Heritage Version
17 If you call on the Father who judges impartially, according to the work of each person, conduct yourselves during the time of your pilgrimage in reverence, 18 because you know that you were redeemed from your empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, not with things that pass away, such as silver or gold, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, like a lamb without blemish or spot. 20 He was chosen before the foundation of the world but revealed in these last times for your sake. 21 Through him you are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.
