\subsection{I Peter 1}
|
|
\VS{1} Peter, apostle of Jesus Christ to [the] chosen sojourners of [the] dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Capadocia, Asia and Bithynia,
|
|
\VS{2} according to the
|
|
foreknowledge of God [the] father, by the consecration of [the] spirit, to obedience
|
|
and sprinkling of [the] blood of Jesus Christ, may grace and peace be multiplied
|
|
to you.
|
|
|
|
\VS{3} Blessed [is] the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according
|
|
to his many mercies has begotten us anew to [a] zoe-living\fnZoe{} hope through [the]
|
|
resurrection of Jesus Christ from [the] dead,
|
|
\VS{4} to [an] inheritance
|
|
incorruptible and undefiled and unfading, kept in [the] heavens for you
|
|
\VS{5} who are being guarded by the power of God through faith for [the] salvation
|
|
prepared [which is] to be revealed in [the] last opportune-time\fnKairos{}.
|
|
\VS{6} In which you do\footnote{or ``should''} rejoice, [though] little now if it is necessary [you being] pained by various tests,
|
|
\VS{7} in order that the genuineness\footnote{or
|
|
``testing''} [of your] faith more valuable than gold which perishes, though tested
|
|
by fire, be found to approval and glory and honor in the revelation of Jesus Christ,
|
|
\VS{8} whom not seeing you agape-love whom not yet seeing, but
|
|
believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and glorious,
|
|
\VS{9} receiving
|
|
the completion\footnote{or ``perfection''} of [your] faith [which is the] salvation of [your] psyche-lives\fnPsyche{},
|
|
\VS{10} concerning which salvation the prophets, who prophesied concerning
|
|
the grace to you, sought and inquired,
|
|
\VS{11} searching for which or what
|
|
sort of opportune-time\fnKairos{} the spirit of Christ, which [was] testifying in them,
|
|
revealed the sufferings of Christ and the glories after these [things],
|
|
\VS{12} Unto whom it was revealed that not for themselves but for you were they
|
|
serving the [things] which are now proclaimed to you through those
|
|
good-newsing you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, into which [things] the angels lust to glimpse.
|
|
\VS{13} Therefore having girded up the loins [of your] intellect [and] being sober, hope fully\footnote{or ``completely'', ``finally} upon the grace being brought to
|
|
you in the revelation of Jesus Christ.
|
|
\VS{14} As children of obedience, not being conformed to the former lusts in your ignorance,
|
|
\VS{15} but [rather]
|
|
according to the holy [one] having called you, let\fnImperative{} yourselves be made holy in all your way of life.
|
|
\VS{16} Because it is written: Be holy, for I [am] holy.
|
|
\VS{17} And if you call upon [the] father [who]
|
|
impartially judges according to each work, be living your time of sojourn in
|
|
fear,
|
|
\VS{18} knowing that: Not with perishable [things], with silver or gold, were
|
|
you ransomed from your futile way of life inherited from [your] fathers,
|
|
\VS{19} but with the precious blood as of an unblemished and unstained lamb,
|
|
[namely] Christ's,
|
|
\VS{20} who [was] on the one hand foreknown before the foundation of
|
|
the world, but on the other hand [was] manifested upon these last times for
|
|
you,
|
|
\VS{21} who through him [You are] believing through him in [the] God having raised him from [the] dead and having given him glory, so that your faith
|
|
and hope would be in God.
|
|
\VS{22} Having purified your psyche-lives\fnPsyche{} in the obedience of the truth
|
|
in unhypocritical brotherly-philia-love, agape-love one another earnestly
|
|
from [a] clean heart,
|
|
\VS{23} having been born again not from perishable seed but from imperishable
|
|
[seed] through [the] word of the zoe-living\fnZoe{} and abiding God.
|
|
\VS{24} For:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
All flesh [is] as grass \\
|
|
And all its glory as [the] flower of grass \\
|
|
The grass is withered \\
|
|
And the flower falls \\
|
|
\VS{25} But the word of [the] Lord abides to eternity.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
And this is ``the word" which is good-newsed to you.
