1 Peter 2

1 He exhorteth them from the breach of charity: 4 shewing that Christ is the foundation whereupon they are built. 11 He beseecheth them also to abstain from fleshly lusts, 13 to be obedient to magistrates, 18 and teacheth servants how to obey their masters, 20 patiently suffering for well doing, after the example of Christ.

 2:1 ¶ Wherefore 3767 laying aside 659 z5642 all 3956 malice, 2549 and 2532 all 3956 guile, 1388 and 2532 hypocrisies, 5272 and 2532 enuies, 5355 and 2532 3956 euill speakings, 2636

 2:2 As 5613 new borne 738 babes 1025 desire 1971 z5657 the x3588 sincere 97 milke 1051 of the word, 3050 that 2443 ye may grow 837 z5686 thereby, 1722 846

 2:3 If so bee 1512 yee haue tasted 1089 z5662 that 3754 the x3588 Lord 2962 is gracious. 5543

 2:4 To 4314 whom 3739 comming 4334 z5740 [as] vnto a liuing 2198 z5723 Stone, 3037 disallowed 593 z5772 in deed 3303 of 5259 men, 444 but 1161 chosen 1588 of 3844 God, 2316 and precious, 1784

 2:5 Ye 846 also 2532 as 5613 liuely 2198 z5723 stones, 3037 are built vp 3618 z5743 a spirituall 4152 house, 3624 an holy 40 Priesthood 2406 to offer vp 399 z5658 spirituall 4152 sacrifice, 2378 acceptable 2144 to God 2316 by 1223 Iesus 2424 Christ. 5547

 2:6 Wherefore 1352 2532 it is conteined 4023 z5719 in 1722 the x3588 Scripture, 1124 Beholde, 2400 z5628 I lay 5087 z5719 in 1722 Sion 4622 a chiefe corner y204 stone, 3037 x204 elect, 1588 precious, 1784 and 2532 he that beleeueth 4100 z5723 on 1909 him, 846 shall y2617 z0 not x3364 be y3364 confounded. 2617 z5686

 2:7 Unto you 5213 therfore 3767 which y3588 beleeue 4100 z5723 hee is precious; 5092 but 1161 vnto them which be disobedient, 544 z5723 the stone 3037 which 3739 the x3588 builders 3618 z5723 disallowed, 593 z5656 the same 3778 is made 1096 z5675 y1519 the x1519 head 2776 of the corner, 1137

 2:8 And 2532 a Stone 3037 of stumbling, 4348 and 2532 a Rocke 4073 of offence, 4625 [euen to them] which 3739 stumble 4350 z5719 at the x3588 word, 3056 being disobedient, 544 z5723 whereunto 1519 3739 also 2532 they were appointed. 5087 z5681

 2:9 But 1161 yee 5210 are a chosen 1588 generation, 1085 a royall 934 Priesthood, 2406 an holy 40 nation, 1484 a peculiar 1519 4047 people, 2992 that 3704 yee should shewe forth 1804 z5661 the x3588 praises 703 of him, x3588 who hath called 2564 z5660 you 5209 out of 1537 darknes 4655 into 1519 his 846 marueilous 2298 light: 5457

 2:10 Which 3588 in time past 4218 were not 3756 a people, 2992 but 1161 are now 3568 the people 2992 of God: 2316 which y3588 had y1653 z0 not y3756 obteined mercie, 1653 z5772 x3756 but 1161 now 3568 haue obteined mercy. 1653 z5685

 2:11 Dearely beloued, 27 I beseech 3870 z5719 you as 5613 strangers 3941 and 2532 pilgrimes, 3927 abstaine x567 from y567 z5733 fleshly 4559 lusts, 1939 which 3748 warre 4754 z5731 against 2596 the x3588 soule, 5590

 2:12 Hauing 2192 z5723 your 5216 conuersation 391 honest 2570 among 1722 the x3588 Gentiles, 1484 that 2443 whereas 1722 3739 they speake against 2635 z5719 you 5216 as 5613 euill doers, 2555 they may y1392 z0 by 1537 [your] good 2570 works 2041 which they shall behold, 2029 z5660 glorifie 1392 z5661 God 2316 in 1722 the day 2250 of visitation. 1984

 2:13 y3767 Submit your selues 5293 z5649 to x3767 euery 3956 ordinance 2937 of man 442 for y1223 the Lordes sake, 2962 x1223 x3588 whether x1535 it be y1535 to the King, 935 as 5613 supreme, 5242 z5723

 2:14 Or 1535 vnto gouernours, 2232 as 5613 vnto them that are sent 3992 z5746 by 1223 him, 846 for 1519 y3303 the punishment 1557 of x3303 euil doers, 2555 and 1161 for the praise 1868 of them that doe well. 17

 2:15 For 3754 so 3779 is 2076 z5748 the x3588 will 2307 of God, 2316 that with well doing 15 z5723 yee may put to silence 5392 z5721 the x3588 ignorance 56 of foolish 878 men. 444

 2:16 As 5613 free, 1658 and 2532 not 3361 vsing 2192 z5723 your libertie 1657 for 5613 a cloake 1942 of maliciousnesse, 2549 but 235 as 5613 the seruants 1401 of God. 2316

 2:17 Honour 5091 z5657 all 3956 men. Loue 25 z5720 the x3588 brotherhood. 81 Feare 5399 z5737 God. 2316 Honour 5091 z5720 the x3588 King. 935

 2:18 Seruants, 3610 be subiect y5293 z5746 to x5293 your masters 1203 with 1722 al 3956 feare, 5401 not 3756 only 3440 to the x3588 good 18 and 2532 gentle, 1933 but 235 also 2532 to the x3588 froward. 4646

 2:19 For 1063 this 5124 is thanke-worthie, 5485 if 1487 a man 5100 for 1223 conscience 4893 toward God 2316 endure 5297 z5719 griefe, 3077 suffering 3958 z5723 wrongfully. 95

 2:20 For 1063 what 4169 glory 2811 is it, if 1487 when y2532 yee be buffeted 2852 z5746 x2532 for your faults, 264 z5723 ye shall take it patiently: 5278 z5692 but 235 if 1487 when yee doe well, 15 z5723 and 2532 suffer 3958 z5723 for it, ye take it patiently, 5278 z5692 this 5124 is acceptable 5485 with 3844 God. 2316

 2:21 For 1063 euen y1519 hereunto 5124 x1519 were ye called: 2564 z5681 because 3754 Christ 5547 also 2532 suffered 3958 z5627 for 5228 vs, 2257 leauing 5277 z5723 vs 2254 an example, 5261 that 2443 yee should follow 1872 z5661 his 846 steps. 2487

 2:22 Who 3739 did 4160 z5656 no 3756 sinne, 266 neither 3761 was guile 1388 found 2147 z5681 in 1722 his 846 mouth. 4750

 2:23 Who 3739 when hee was reuiled, 3058 z5746 reuiled y486 z0 not y3756 againe; 486 z5707 x3756 when hee suffered, 3958 z5723 hee threatned 546 z5707 not, 3756 but 1161 committed 3860 z5707 [himselfe] to him that iudgeth 2919 z5723 righteously. 1346

 2:24 Who 3739 his owne selfe y846 x848 bare 399 z5656 our 2257 sinnes 266 in 1722 his owne y846 x848 body 4983 on 1909 the x3588 tree, 3586 that 2443 wee y2198 z0 being dead 581 z5637 to sinnes, 266 should liue 2198 z5661 vnto righteousnesse, 1343 by y3739 whose y846 x3739 stripes 3468 ye were healed. 2390 z5681

 2:25 For 1063 yee were 2258 z5713 as 5613 sheepe 4263 going astray, 4105 z5746 but 235 are y1994 z0 now 3568 returned 1994 z5648 vnto 1909 the x3588 shepheard 4166 and 2532 Bishop 1985 of your 5216 soules. 5590
