1 Peter 1

1 He blesseth God for his manifold spiritual graces: 10 shewing that the salvation in Christ is no news, but a thing prophesied of old: 13 and exhorteth them accordingly to a godly conversation, forasmuch as they are now born anew by the Word of God.

 1:1 ¶ Peter, 4074 an apostle 652 of Jesus 2424 Christ, 5547 to the strangers 3927 scattered y1290 throughout x1290 Pontus, 4195 Galatia, 1053 Cappadocia, 2587 Asia, 773 and 2532 Bithynia, 978

 1:2 Elect 1588 according 2596 to the foreknowledge 4268 of God 2316 the Father, 3962 through 1722 sanctification 38 of the Spirit, 4151 unto 1519 obedience 5218 and 2532 sprinkling 4473 of the blood 129 of Jesus 2424 Christ: 5547 Grace 5485 unto you, 5213 and 2532 peace, 1515 be multiplied. 4129 z5684

 1:3 Blessed 2128 [be] the x3588 God 2316 and 2532 Father 3962 of our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ, 5547 which y3588 according x2596 to y2596 his y846 x848 abundant 4183 mercy 1656 hath begotten y313 z0 us y2248 again 313 z5660 x2248 unto 1519 a lively 2198 z5723 hope 1680 by 1223 the resurrection 386 of Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 from 1537 the dead, 3498

 1:4 To 1519 an inheritance 2817 incorruptible, 862 and 2532 undefiled, 283 and 2532 that fadeth not away, 263 reserved 5083 z5772 in 1722 heaven 3772 for 1519 you, y5209 x2248

 1:5 Who y3588 are kept 5432 z5746 by 1722 the power 1411 of God 2316 through 1223 faith 4102 unto 1519 salvation 4991 ready 2092 to be revealed 601 z5683 in 1722 the last 2078 time. 2540

 1:6 Wherein 1722 3739 ye greatly rejoice, 21 z5736 though now 737 for a season, 3641 if 1487 need y1163 z5752 be, 2076 z5748 x1163 ye are in heaviness 3076 z5685 through 1722 manifold 4164 temptations: 3986

 1:7 That 2443 the x3588 trial 1383 of your 5216 faith, 4102 being much 4183 more precious 5093 than of gold 5553 that perisheth, 622 z5734 though 1161 y1223 it be tried 1381 z5746 with x1223 fire, 4442 might be found 2147 z5686 unto 1519 praise 1868 and 2532 honour 5092 and 2532 glory 1391 at 1722 the appearing 602 of Jesus 2424 Christ: 5547

 1:8 Whom 3739 having y1492 z0 not 3756 seen, 1492 z5761 z5625 z5631 ye love; 25 z5719 in 1519 whom, 3739 though now 737 ye see 3708 z5723 [him] not, 3361 yet 1161 believing, 4100 z5723 ye rejoice 21 z5736 with joy 5479 unspeakable 412 and 2532 full of glory: 1392 z5772

 1:9 Receiving 2865 z5734 the x3588 end 5056 of your 5216 faith, 4102 [even] the salvation 4991 of [your] souls. 5590

 1:10 Of 4012 which 3739 salvation 4991 the prophets 4396 have enquired 1567 z5656 and 2532 searched diligently, 1830 z5656 who y3588 prophesied 4395 z5660 of 4012 the x3588 grace 5485 [that should come] unto 1519 you: 5209

 1:11 Searching 2045 z5723 what, 5101 y1519 or 2228 what manner 4169 of time 2540 the x3588 Spirit 4151 of Christ 5547 which y3588 was in 1722 them 846 did signify, 1213 z5707 when it testified beforehand 4303 z5740 the x3588 sufferings 3804 of 1519 Christ, 5547 and 2532 the x3588 glory 1391 that should follow. 3326 5023

 1:12 Unto whom 3739 it was revealed, 601 z5681 that 3754 not 3756 unto themselves, 1438 but 1161 unto us 2254 they did minister 1247 z5707 the things, 846 which 3739 are y312 z0 now 3568 reported 312 z5648 unto you 5213 by 1223 them that have preached the gospel 2097 z5671 unto you 5209 with 1722 the Holy 40 Ghost 4151 sent down 649 z5651 from 575 heaven; 3772 which things 3739 the angels 32 desire 1937 z5719 to look 3879 z5658 into. 1519

 1:13 Wherefore 1352 gird up 328 z5671 the x3588 loins 3751 of your 5216 mind, 1271 be sober, 3525 z5723 and hope 1679 z5657 to the end 5049 for 1909 the x3588 grace 5485 that is to be brought 5342 z5746 unto you 5213 at 1722 the revelation 602 of Jesus 2424 Christ; 5547

 1:14 As 5613 obedient 5218 children, 5043 not 3361 fashioning yourselves x4964 according to y4964 z5730 the x3588 former 4386 lusts 1939 in 1722 your 5216 ignorance: 52

 1:15 But 235 as 2596 he which hath called 2564 z5660 you 5209 is holy, 40 so 2532 be 1096 z5676 ye 846 holy 40 in 1722 all y3956 manner x3956 of conversation; 391

 1:16 Because 1360 it is written, 1125 z5769 Be x1096 ye y1096 z5634 holy; 40 for 3754 I 1473 am 1510 z5748 holy. 40

 1:17 And 2532 if 1487 ye call on 1941 z5731 the Father, 3962 who y3588 without respect of persons y678 judgeth 2919 z5723 x678 according x2596 to y2596 every man's 1538 work, 2041 pass 390 z5649 the x3588 time 5550 of your 5216 sojourning 3940 [here] in 1722 fear: 5401

 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know 1492 z5761 that 3754 ye were y3084 z0 not 3756 redeemed 3084 z5681 with corruptible things, 5349 [as] silver 694 and 2228 gold, 5553 from 1537 your 5216 vain 3152 conversation 391 [received] by tradition from your fathers; 3970

 1:19 But 235 with the precious 5093 blood 129 of Christ, 5547 as 5613 of a lamb 286 without blemish 299 and 2532 without spot: 784

 1:20 Who verily 3303 was foreordained 4267 z5772 before 4253 the foundation 2602 of the world, 2889 but 1161 was manifest 5319 z5685 in 1909 these last 2078 times 5550 for 1223 you, 5209

 1:21 Who y3588 by 1223 him 846 do believe 4100 z5723 in 1519 God, 2316 that raised y1453 z0 him y846 up 1453 z5660 x846 from 1537 the dead, 3498 and 2532 gave 1325 z5631 him 846 glory; 1391 that 5620 your 5216 faith 4102 and 2532 hope 1680 might be 1511 z5750 in 1519 God. 2316

 1:22 Seeing ye have purified 48 z5761 your 5216 souls 5590 in 1722 obeying 5218 the x3588 truth 225 through 1223 the Spirit 4151 unto 1519 unfeigned 505 love of the brethren, 5360 [see that ye] love 25 z5657 one another 240 with 1537 a pure 2513 heart 2588 fervently: 1619

 1:23 Being born again, 313 z5746 not 3756 of 1537 corruptible 5349 seed, 4701 but 235 of incorruptible, 862 by 1223 the word 3056 of God, 2316 which liveth 2198 z5723 and 2532 abideth 3306 z5723 for y1519 ever. 165 x1519

 1:24 For 1360 all 3956 flesh 4561 [is] as 5613 grass, 5528 and 2532 all 3956 the glory 1391 of man 444 as 5613 the flower 438 of grass. 5528 The x3588 grass 5528 withereth, 3583 z5681 and 2532 the x3588 flower 438 thereof 846 falleth away: 1601 z5627

 1:25 But y1161 x1611 the x3588 word 4487 of the Lord 2962 endureth 3306 z5719 for y1519 ever. 165 x1519 And 1161 this 5124 is 2076 z5748 the x3588 word 4487 which y3588 by the gospel is preached 2097 z5685 unto 1519 you. 5209
