1 Peter 1-5
King James Version
1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations:
7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
10 Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:
11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.
12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.
13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:
15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:
18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,
21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.
22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:
23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
2 Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,
2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:
3 If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
4 To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.
7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.
9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.
15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
16 As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
19 For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
20 For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
3 Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;
2 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.
3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
9 Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.
10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
11 Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.
13 And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?
14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
17 For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.
18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.
21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
4 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.
8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
5 The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
3 Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.
4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
12 By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.
13 The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son.
14 Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
1 Peter 1-5
New King James Version
Greeting to the Elect Pilgrims
1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ,
To the [a]pilgrims (A)of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, 2 (B)elect (C)according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, (D)in sanctification of the Spirit, for (E)obedience and (F)sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ:
(G)Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
A Heavenly Inheritance
3 (H)Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who (I)according to His abundant mercy (J)has begotten us again to a living hope (K)through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to an inheritance [b]incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, (L)reserved in heaven for you, 5 (M)who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 (N)In this you greatly rejoice, though now (O)for a little while, if need be, (P)you have been [c]grieved by various trials, 7 that (Q)the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though (R)it is tested by fire, (S)may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, 8 (T)whom having not [d]seen you love. (U)Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory, 9 receiving the end of your faith—the salvation of your souls.
10 Of this salvation the prophets have inquired and searched carefully, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you, 11 searching what, or what manner of time, (V)the Spirit of Christ who was in them was indicating when He testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow. 12 To them it was revealed that, not to themselves, but to [e]us they were ministering the things which now have been reported to you through those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things which (W)angels desire to look into.
Living Before God Our Father
13 Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; 14 as obedient children, not (X)conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; 15 (Y)but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16 because it is written, (Z)“Be holy, for I am holy.”
17 And if you call on the Father, who (AA)without partiality judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your [f]stay here in fear; 18 knowing that you were not redeemed with [g]corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, 19 but (AB)with the precious blood of Christ, (AC)as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. 20 (AD)He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was [h]manifest (AE)in these last times for you 21 who through Him believe in God, (AF)who raised Him from the dead and (AG)gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.
The Enduring Word
22 Since you (AH)have purified your souls in obeying the truth [i]through the Spirit in [j]sincere (AI)love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart, 23 (AJ)having been born again, not of [k]corruptible seed but [l]incorruptible, (AK)through the word of God which lives and abides [m]forever, 24 because
(AL)“All flesh is as grass,
And all [n]the glory of man as the flower of the grass.
The grass withers,
And its flower falls away,
25 (AM)But the [o]word of the Lord endures forever.”
(AN)Now this is the word which by the gospel was preached to you.
Our Inheritance Through Christ’s Blood
2 Therefore, (AO)laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking, 2 (AP)as newborn babes, desire the pure (AQ)milk of the word, that you may grow [p]thereby, 3 if indeed you have (AR)tasted that the Lord is gracious.
The Chosen Stone and His Chosen People(AS)
4 Coming to Him as to a living stone, (AT)rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, 5 you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture,
(AU)“Behold, I lay in Zion
A chief cornerstone, elect, precious,
And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.”
7 Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who [q]are disobedient,
(AV)“The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone,”
8 and
(AW)“A stone of stumbling
And a rock of offense.”
(AX)They stumble, being disobedient to the word, (AY)to which they also were appointed.
9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of (AZ)darkness into His marvelous light; 10 (BA)who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.
Living Before the World
11 Beloved, I beg you as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts (BB)which war against the soul, 12 (BC)having your conduct honorable among the Gentiles, that when they speak against you as evildoers, (BD)they may, by your good works which they observe, glorify God in the day of visitation.
Submission to Government(BE)
13 (BF)Therefore submit yourselves to every [r]ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake, whether to the king as supreme, 14 or to governors, as to those who are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of those who do good. 15 For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men— 16 (BG)as free, yet not (BH)using liberty as a cloak for [s]vice, but as bondservants of God. 17 Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear (BI)God. Honor the king.
Submission to Masters(BJ)
18 (BK)Servants, be submissive to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the harsh. 19 For this is (BL)commendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully. 20 For (BM)what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God. 21 For (BN)to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for [t]us, (BO)leaving [u]us an example, that you should follow His steps:
22 “Who(BP) committed no sin,
Nor was deceit found in His mouth”;
23 (BQ)who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but (BR)committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; 24 (BS)who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, (BT)that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—(BU)by whose [v]stripes you were healed. 25 For (BV)you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned (BW)to the Shepherd and [w]Overseer of your souls.
Submission to Husbands
3 Wives, likewise, be (BX)submissive to your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the word, (BY)they, without a word, may (BZ)be won by the conduct of their wives, 2 (CA)when they observe your chaste conduct accompanied by fear. 3 (CB)Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel— 4 rather let it be (CC)the hidden person of the heart, with the [x]incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. 5 For in this manner, in former times, the holy women who trusted in God also adorned themselves, being submissive to their own husbands, 6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, (CD)calling him lord, whose daughters you are if you do good and are not afraid with any terror.
A Word to Husbands
7 (CE)Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, (CF)as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, (CG)that your prayers may not be hindered.
Called to Blessing
8 Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be [y]courteous; 9 (CH)not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary (CI)blessing, knowing that you were called to this, (CJ)that you may inherit a blessing. 10 For
(CK)“He who would love life
And see good days,
(CL)Let him [z]refrain his tongue from evil,
And his lips from speaking deceit.
11 Let him (CM)turn away from evil and do good;
(CN)Let him seek peace and pursue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
(CO)And His ears are open to their prayers;
But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
Suffering for Right and Wrong
13 (CP)And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good? 14 (CQ)But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. (CR)“And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled.” 15 But [aa]sanctify [ab]the Lord God in your hearts, and always (CS)be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the (CT)hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; 16 (CU)having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. 17 For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
Christ’s Suffering and Ours
18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring [ac]us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit, 19 by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison, 20 who formerly were disobedient, [ad]when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water. 21 (CV)There is also an antitype which now saves us—baptism (CW)(not the removal of the filth of the flesh, (CX)but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, 22 who has gone into heaven and (CY)is at the right hand of God, (CZ)angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.
Christ’s Example to Be Followed
4 Therefore, since Christ suffered [ae]for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, 2 that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, (DA)but for the will of God. 3 For we have spent enough of our past [af]lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles—when we walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries. 4 In regard to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you. 5 They will give an account to Him who is ready (DB)to judge the living and the dead. 6 For this reason (DC)the gospel was preached also to those who are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but (DD)live according to God in the spirit.
Serving for God’s Glory
7 But (DE)the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers. 8 And above all things have fervent love for one another, for (DF)“love will cover a multitude of sins.” 9 (DG)Be hospitable to one another (DH)without grumbling. 10 (DI)As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, (DJ)as good stewards of (DK)the manifold grace of God. 11 (DL)If anyone speaks, let him speak as the [ag]oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that (DM)in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the [ah]dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Suffering for God’s Glory
12 Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; 13 but rejoice (DN)to the extent that you partake of Christ’s sufferings, that (DO)when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy. 14 If you are [ai]reproached for the name of Christ, (DP)blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. [aj]On their part He is blasphemed, (DQ)but on your part He is glorified. 15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a [ak]busybody in other people’s matters. 16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this [al]matter.
17 For the time has come (DR)for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, (DS)what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God? 18 Now
(DT)“If the righteous one is scarcely saved,
Where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?”
19 Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God (DU)commit their souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful Creator.
Shepherd the Flock
5 The elders who are among you I exhort, I who am a fellow elder and a (DV)witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the (DW)glory that will be revealed: 2 (DX)Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, (DY)not by compulsion but [am]willingly, (DZ)not for dishonest gain but eagerly; 3 nor as (EA)being [an]lords over (EB)those entrusted to you, but (EC)being examples to the flock; 4 and when (ED)the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive (EE)the crown of glory that does not fade away.
Submit to God, Resist the Devil
5 Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, (EF)all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for
6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
8 Be [ao]sober, be [ap]vigilant; [aq]because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 9 Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. 10 But [ar]may the God of all grace, (EI)who called [as]us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, [at]perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. 11 (EJ)To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Farewell and Peace
12 By (EK)Silvanus, our faithful brother as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying (EL)that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
13 She who is in Babylon, elect together with you, greets you; and so does (EM)Mark my son. 14 Greet one another with a kiss of love.
Peace to you all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Saludo
1 Pedro, apóstol de Jesucristo(A):
A los expatriados(B), de la dispersión(C) en el[a] Ponto(D), Galacia(E), Capadocia(F), Asia(G) y Bitinia(H), elegidos(I) 2 según el previo conocimiento de Dios Padre(J), por la obra santificadora del Espíritu(K), para obedecer a Jesucristo(L) y ser rociados con su sangre[b](M): Que la gracia y la paz os sean multiplicadas(N).
La esperanza viva del cristiano
3 Bendito sea el Dios y Padre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo(O), quien según su gran misericordia(P), nos ha hecho nacer de nuevo(Q) a una esperanza viva(R), mediante la resurrección de Jesucristo de entre los muertos(S), 4 para obtener una herencia(T) incorruptible, inmaculada, y que no se marchitará(U), reservada en los cielos para vosotros(V), 5 que sois protegidos[c] por el poder de Dios(W) mediante la fe(X), para la salvación(Y) que está preparada para ser revelada en el último tiempo(Z). 6 En lo cual os regocijáis grandemente(AA), aunque ahora, por un poco de tiempo(AB) si es necesario(AC), seáis afligidos con diversas pruebas[d](AD), 7 para que la prueba[e] de vuestra fe(AE), más preciosa que el oro que perece, aunque probado por fuego(AF), sea hallada que resulta en alabanza(AG), gloria y honor en la revelación de Jesucristo(AH); 8 a quien sin haberle visto(AI), le amáis(AJ), y a quien ahora no veis, pero creéis en Él, y os regocijáis grandemente con gozo inefable y lleno de gloria[f], 9 obteniendo, como[g] resultado de vuestra fe(AK), la salvación de vuestras[h] almas. 10 Acerca de esta salvación(AL), los profetas que profetizaron(AM) de la gracia que vendría a vosotros(AN), diligentemente inquirieron e indagaron, 11 procurando saber[i] qué persona o tiempo indicaba el Espíritu de Cristo(AO) dentro de ellos, al predecir los sufrimientos de Cristo(AP) y las glorias que seguirían[j]. 12 A ellos les fue revelado que no se servían a sí mismos, sino a vosotros, en estas cosas que ahora os han sido anunciadas mediante los que os predicaron[k] el evangelio(AQ) por el Espíritu Santo(AR) enviado del cielo; cosas a las cuales los ángeles anhelan mirar[l](AS).
Exhortación a la santidad
13 Por tanto, ceñid vuestro entendimiento(AT) para la acción[m]; sed[n] sobrios en espíritu(AU), poned vuestra esperanza(AV) completamente en la gracia(AW) que se os traerá[o] en la revelación[p] de Jesucristo(AX). 14 Como hijos obedientes[q](AY), no os conforméis a los deseos(AZ) que antes teníais en vuestra ignorancia(BA), 15 sino que así como aquel que os llamó es santo[r](BB), así también sed vosotros santos(BC) en toda vuestra manera de vivir(BD); 16 porque escrito está: Sed santos, porque Yo soy santo(BE). 17 Y si invocáis como Padre(BF) a aquel que imparcialmente(BG) juzga(BH) según la obra de cada uno, conducíos en temor(BI) durante el tiempo de vuestra peregrinación(BJ); 18 sabiendo que no fuisteis redimidos[s](BK) de vuestra vana manera de vivir heredada de vuestros padres(BL) con cosas perecederas como oro o plata, 19 sino con sangre preciosa(BM), como de un cordero sin tacha y sin mancha(BN), la sangre de Cristo. 20 Porque Él estaba preparado[t](BO) desde antes de la fundación del mundo(BP), pero se ha manifestado(BQ) en estos últimos tiempos[u] por amor a vosotros(BR) 21 que por medio de Él sois creyentes en Dios(BS), que le resucitó de entre los muertos y le dio gloria(BT), de manera que vuestra fe y esperanza sean en Dios(BU).
Exhortación al amor fraternal
22 Puesto que en obediencia a la verdad(BV) habéis purificado vuestras almas[v](BW) para un amor sincero[w] de hermanos(BX), amaos unos a otros entrañablemente, de corazón puro. 23 Pues habéis nacido de nuevo(BY), no de una simiente(BZ) corruptible, sino de una que es incorruptible, es decir, mediante la palabra de Dios que vive y permanece[x](CA). 24 Porque:
Toda carne es como la hierba,
y toda su gloria como la flor de la hierba.
Sécase la hierba,
cese la flor(CB),
25 mas la palabra del Señor permanece para siempre(CC).
Y esta es la palabra que os fue predicada[y](CD).
Exhortación al crecimiento
2 Por tanto, desechando toda malicia[z](CE) y todo engaño, e hipocresías, envidias y toda difamación[aa](CF), 2 desead como niños recién nacidos(CG), la leche pura de la palabra[ab](CH), para que por ella crezcáis(CI) para salvación, 3 si es que habéis probado(CJ) la benignidad del Señor[ac](CK). 4 Y viniendo a Él como a una piedra viva, desechada por los hombres(CL), pero escogida y preciosa delante de Dios, 5 también vosotros(CM), como piedras vivas, sed edificados como casa espiritual(CN) para un sacerdocio santo(CO), para ofrecer sacrificios espirituales(CP) aceptables a Dios por medio de Jesucristo. 6 Pues esto se encuentra[ad] en la Escritura[ae]:
He aquí, pongo en Sión una piedra escogida, una preciosa piedra angular(CQ),
y el que crea en Él no será avergonzado(CR).
7 Este precioso valor es, pues, para vosotros los que creéis; pero para los que no creen(CS),
8 y,
piedra de tropiezo y roca de escandalo(CU);
pues ellos tropiezan(CV) porque son desobedientes a la palabra, y para ello estaban también destinados(CW). 9 Pero vosotros sois linaje escogido(CX), real sacerdocio(CY), nación santa(CZ), pueblo adquirido para posesión de Dios(DA), a fin de que anunciéis las virtudes de aquel que os llamó de las tinieblas a su luz admirable(DB); 10 pues vosotros en otro tiempo no erais pueblo, pero ahora sois el pueblo de Dios; no habíais recibido misericordia, pero ahora habéis recibido misericordia(DC).
Conducta de los creyentes en el mundo
11 Amados(DD), os ruego(DE) como a extranjeros(DF) y peregrinos, que os abstengáis de las pasiones carnales(DG) que combaten contra el alma(DH). 12 Mantened entre los gentiles una[ag] conducta irreprochable(DI), a fin de que en aquello que os calumnian como malhechores(DJ), ellos, por razón de[ah] vuestras buenas obras, al considerarlas, glorifiquen a Dios(DK) en el día de la visitación[ai](DL).
13 Someteos, por causa del Señor, a toda institución humana(DM), ya sea al rey, como autoridad, 14 o a los gobernadores, como enviados por él para castigo de los malhechores(DN) y alabanza de los que hacen el bien(DO). 15 Porque esta es la voluntad de Dios(DP): que[aj] haciendo bien, hagáis enmudecer la ignorancia de los hombres insensatos(DQ). 16 Andad como libres(DR), pero no uséis la libertad como pretexto[ak] para la maldad, sino empleadla como siervos de Dios(DS). 17 Honrad a todos(DT), amad a los hermanos[al](DU), temed a Dios, honrad al rey[am](DV).
Ejemplo de Cristo como siervo
18 Siervos(DW), estad sujetos a vuestros amos con todo respeto, no solo a los que son buenos y afables(DX), sino también a los que son insoportables[an]. 19 Porque esto halla gracia, si por causa de la conciencia(DY) ante Dios, alguno sobrelleva penalidades sufriendo injustamente. 20 Pues ¿qué mérito hay, si cuando pecáis y sois tratados con severidad lo soportáis con paciencia? Pero si cuando hacéis lo bueno(DZ) sufrís por ello y lo soportáis con paciencia, esto halla gracia con Dios. 21 Porque para este propósito habéis sido llamados(EA), pues también Cristo sufrió por vosotros(EB), dejándoos[ao] ejemplo para que sigáis sus pisadas(EC), 22 el cual no cometió pecado, ni engaño alguno se halló en su boca(ED); 23 y quien cuando le ultrajaban(EE), no respondía ultrajando; cuando padecía, no amenazaba, sino que se encomendaba a aquel que juzga con justicia; 24 y Él mismo llevó[ap] nuestros pecados en su cuerpo(EF) sobre[aq] la cruz[ar](EG), a fin de que muramos al pecado[as](EH) y vivamos a la justicia, porque por sus heridas[at](EI) fuisteis sanados(EJ). 25 Pues vosotros andabais descarriados[au] como ovejas(EK), pero ahora habéis vuelto al Pastor(EL) y Guardián[av] de vuestras almas.
Deberes conyugales
3 Asimismo vosotras, mujeres(EM), estad sujetas a vuestros maridos(EN), de modo que si algunos de ellos son desobedientes a la palabra, puedan ser ganados sin palabra alguna por la conducta de sus mujeres(EO) 2 al observar vuestra conducta casta y respetuosa[aw]. 3 Y que vuestro adorno no sea externo(EP): peinados ostentosos[ax], joyas de oro o vestidos lujosos, 4 sino que sea el yo interno[ay](EQ), con el adorno[az] incorruptible de un espíritu tierno y sereno, lo cual es precioso delante de Dios. 5 Porque así también se adornaban en otro tiempo las santas mujeres que esperaban en Dios(ER), estando sujetas a sus maridos. 6 Así obedeció Sara a Abraham, llamándolo señor(ES), y vosotras habéis llegado a ser hijas de ella, si hacéis el bien y no estáis amedrentadas por ningún temor(ET).
7 Y vosotros, maridos(EU), igualmente, convivid de manera comprensiva[ba] con vuestras mujeres, como con un vaso más frágil(EV), puesto que es mujer, dándole honor como a coheredera de la gracia de la vida, para que vuestras oraciones no sean estorbadas.
El secreto de la vida feliz
8 En conclusión, sed todos de un mismo sentir[bb](EW), compasivos, fraternales(EX), misericordiosos(EY) y de espíritu humilde(EZ); 9 no devolviendo mal por mal(FA), o insulto por insulto(FB), sino más bien bendiciendo(FC), porque fuisteis llamados(FD) con el propósito de heredar bendición(FE). 10 Pues
El que quiere amar la vida y ver días buenos,
refrene su lengua del mal y sus labios no hablen engaño(FF).
11 Apártese del mal y haga el bien;
busque la paz y sígala(FG).
12 Porque los ojos del Señor están sobre los justos,
y sus oídos atentos a sus oraciones;
pero el rostro del Señor está contra los que hacen el mal(FH).
Sufriendo por la justicia
13 ¿Y quién os podrá hacer daño si demostráis tener celo por lo bueno(FI)? 14 Pero aun si sufrís por causa de la justicia(FJ), dichosos sois(FK). Y no os amedrentéis por temor a ellos[bc] ni os turbéis(FL), 15 sino santificad a Cristo como Señor(FM) en vuestros corazones, estando siempre preparados para presentar defensa(FN) ante todo el que os demande razón de[bd] la esperanza que hay en vosotros(FO), pero hacedlo con mansedumbre(FP) y reverencia[be](FQ); 16 teniendo buena conciencia(FR), para que en aquello en que sois calumniados(FS), sean avergonzados los que difaman vuestra buena conducta en Cristo. 17 Pues es mejor(FT) padecer por hacer el bien, si así es la voluntad de Dios(FU), que por hacer el mal. 18 Porque también Cristo murió[bf] por los pecados(FV) una sola vez(FW), el justo por los injustos, para llevarnos a Dios(FX), muerto en la carne(FY) pero vivificado en el espíritu[bg](FZ); 19 en el cual también fue y predicó a los espíritus encarcelados(GA), 20 quienes en otro tiempo fueron desobedientes cuando la paciencia de Dios(GB) esperaba en los días de Noé(GC), durante la construcción del arca(GD), en la cual unos pocos, es decir, ocho(GE) personas(GF), fueron salvadas por medio del agua. 21 Y correspondiendo a esto, el bautismo ahora os salva(GG) (no quitando la suciedad de la carne(GH), sino como una petición a Dios de una buena conciencia(GI)) mediante la resurrección de Jesucristo(GJ), 22 quien está a la diestra de Dios(GK), habiendo subido[bh] al cielo(GL) después de que le habían sido sometidos ángeles, autoridades y potestades(GM).
Cómo quiere Dios que vivamos
4 Por tanto, puesto que Cristo ha padecido en la carne[bi](GN), armaos también vosotros con el mismo propósito(GO), pues quien ha padecido en la carne[bj](GP) ha terminado con el pecado, 2 para vivir(GQ) el tiempo que le queda en la carne(GR), no ya para las pasiones humanas, sino para la voluntad de Dios. 3 Porque el tiempo ya pasado(GS) os es suficiente para haber hecho lo que agrada a los gentiles, habiendo andado en sensualidad, lujurias, borracheras, orgías, embriagueces y abominables[bk] idolatrías(GT). 4 Y en todo esto, se sorprenden de que no corráis con ellos en el mismo desenfreno de disolución(GU), y os ultrajan(GV); 5 pero ellos darán cuenta a aquel que está preparado para juzgar a los vivos y a los muertos(GW). 6 Porque con este fin fue predicado[bl] el evangelio aun a los muertos(GX), para que aunque sean juzgados en la carne como hombres, vivan en el espíritu conforme a la voluntad de Dios.
El fin de todas las cosas y la conducta cristiana
7 Mas el fin de todas las cosas se acerca[bm](GY); sed pues prudentes y de espíritu sobrio(GZ) para la oración[bn]. 8 Sobre todo, sed fervientes en vuestro amor los unos por los otros(HA), pues el amor cubre multitud de pecados(HB). 9 Sed hospitalarios los unos para con los otros(HC), sin murmuraciones[bo](HD). 10 Según cada uno ha recibido un don especial(HE), úselo sirviéndoos los unos a los otros como buenos administradores de la multiforme gracia de Dios(HF). 11 El que habla(HG), que hable conforme a[bp] las palabras de Dios(HH); el que sirve[bq], que lo haga por[br] la fortaleza que Dios da(HI), para que en todo Dios sea glorificado mediante Jesucristo(HJ), a quien pertenecen la gloria y el dominio por los siglos de los siglos(HK). Amén.
Sufriendo como cristianos
12 Amados(HL), no os sorprendáis del fuego de prueba(HM) que en medio de vosotros ha venido para probaros, como si alguna cosa extraña os estuviera aconteciendo; 13 antes bien, en la medida en que compartís los padecimientos de Cristo(HN), regocijaos, para que también en la revelación de su gloria(HO) os regocijéis con gran alegría(HP). 14 Si sois vituperados por[bs] el nombre de Cristo(HQ), dichosos sois(HR), pues el Espíritu de gloria y de Dios(HS) reposa sobre vosotros. [bt]Ciertamente, por ellos Él es blasfemado, pero por vosotros es glorificado. 15 Que de ninguna manera sufra alguno de vosotros como homicida(HT), o ladrón, o malhechor, o por entrometido[bu](HU). 16 Pero si alguno sufre como cristiano(HV), que no se avergüence, sino que como tal[bv] glorifique a Dios(HW). 17 Porque es tiempo de que el juicio comience(HX) por[bw] la casa de Dios(HY); y si comienza por[bx] nosotros primero(HZ), ¿cuál será el fin de los que no obedecen(IA) al evangelio de Dios(IB)? 18 Y si el justo con dificultad se salva, ¿qué será del impío y del[by] pecador(IC)? 19 Por consiguiente, los que sufren conforme a la voluntad de Dios(ID), encomienden sus almas al fiel Creador, haciendo el bien.
Consejos a los ancianos de la iglesia
5 Por tanto, a los ancianos entre vosotros(IE), exhorto yo, anciano como ellos(IF) y testigo de los padecimientos de Cristo(IG), y también participante de la gloria que ha de ser revelada(IH): 2 pastoread el rebaño de Dios entre vosotros(II), velando por él, no por obligación(IJ), sino voluntariamente, como quiere Dios; no por la avaricia del dinero[bz](IK), sino con sincero deseo; 3 tampoco como teniendo señorío(IL) sobre los que os han sido confiados[ca], sino demostrando ser[cb] ejemplos del rebaño(IM). 4 Y cuando aparezca el Príncipe de los pastores[cc](IN), recibiréis la corona inmarcesible(IO) de gloria(IP). 5 Asimismo, vosotros los más jóvenes, estad sujetos a los mayores[cd](IQ); y todos, revestíos de humildad en vuestro trato mutuo(IR), porque Dios resiste a los soberbios, pero da gracia a los humildes(IS).
Consejos para la iglesia
6 Humillaos(IT), pues, bajo la poderosa mano de Dios, para que Él os exalte a su debido tiempo, 7 echando toda vuestra ansiedad sobre Él, porque Él tiene cuidado de vosotros(IU). 8 Sed de espíritu sobrio(IV), estad alerta(IW). Vuestro adversario, el diablo(IX), anda al acecho como león rugiente(IY), buscando a quien devorar. 9 Pero resistidle[ce](IZ) firmes en la fe(JA), sabiendo que las mismas experiencias de sufrimiento(JB) se van cumpliendo en vuestros hermanos[cf] en todo el mundo. 10 Y después de que hayáis sufrido un poco de tiempo(JC), el Dios de toda gracia(JD), que os llamó(JE) a su gloria eterna en Cristo(JF), Él mismo os perfeccionará(JG), afirmará(JH), fortalecerá y establecerá. 11 A Él sea el dominio por los siglos de los siglos(JI). Amén.
Saludos finales
12 Por conducto(JJ) de Silvano, nuestro fiel hermano (porque así[cg] lo considero), os he escrito brevemente(JK), exhortando y testificando que esta es la verdadera gracia de Dios(JL). Estad firmes en ella(JM). 13 La[ch] que está en Babilonia, elegida juntamente con vosotros, os saluda, y también mi hijo Marcos(JN). 14 Saludaos unos a otros con un beso de amor fraternal(JO).
La paz sea con todos vosotros, los que estáis en Cristo(JP).
