10 Concerning which salvation prophets, who have prophesied of the grace towards you, sought out and searched out;

11 searching what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ which [was] in them pointed out, testifying before of the sufferings which [belonged] to Christ, and the glories after these.

12 To whom it was revealed, that not to themselves but to you they ministered those things, which have now been announced to you by those who have declared to you the glad tidings by [the] Holy Spirit, sent from heaven, which angels desire to look into.

13 Wherefore, having girded up the loins of your mind, [be] sober [and] hope with perfect stedfastness in the grace [which will be] brought to you at [the] revelation of Jesus Christ;

14 as children of obedience, not conformed to [your] former lusts in your ignorance;

15 but as he who has called you is holy, be ye also holy in all [your] conversation;

17 And if ye invoke as Father him who, without regard of persons, judges according to the work of each, pass your time of sojourn in fear,

18 knowing that ye have been redeemed, not by corruptible [things, as] silver or gold, from your vain conversation handed down from [your] fathers,

21 who by him do believe on God, who has raised him from among [the] dead and given him glory, that your faith and hope should be in God.

22 Having purified your souls by obedience to the truth to unfeigned brotherly love, love one another out of a pure heart fervently;

23 being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by [the] living and abiding word of God. (aiōn g165)

24 Because all flesh [is] as grass, and all its glory as [the] flower of grass. The grass has withered and [its] flower has fallen;
