1 Peter 1
1 Peter, apostle of Jesus Christ, to [the] sojourners of [the] dispersion of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
panta-gAlAtiyA-kappadakiyA-AziyA-bithuniyAdEzESu pravAsinO yE vikIrNalOkAH
2 elect according to [the] foreknowledge of God [the] Father, by sanctification of [the] Spirit, unto [the] obedience and sprinkling of [the] blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

3 Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his great mercy, has begotten us again to a living hope through [the] resurrection of Jesus Christ from among [the] dead,

5 who are kept guarded by [the] power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in [the] last time.

6 Wherein ye exult, for a little while at present, if needed, put to grief by various trials,
tasmAd yUyaM yadyapyAnandEna praphullA bhavatha tathApi sAmprataM prayOjanahEtOH kiyatkAlaparyyantaM nAnAvidhaparIkSAbhiH klizyadhvE|
7 that the proving of your faith, much more precious than of gold which perishes, though it be proved by fire, be found to praise and glory and honour in [the] revelation of Jesus Christ:
yatO vahninA yasya parIkSA bhavati tasmAt nazvarasuvarNAdapi bahumUlyaM yuSmAkaM vizvAsarUpaM yat parIkSitaM svarNaM tEna yIzukhrISTasyAgamanasamayE prazaMsAyAH samAdarasya gauravasya ca yOgyatA prAptavyA|
8 whom, having not seen, ye love; on whom [though] not now looking, but believing, ye exult with joy unspeakable and filled with [the] glory,

9 receiving the end of your faith, [the] salvation of [your] souls.

10 Concerning which salvation prophets, who have prophesied of the grace towards you, sought out and searched out;
yuSmAsu yO 'nugrahO varttatE tadviSayE ya IzvarIyavAkyaM kathitavantastE bhaviSyadvAdinastasya paritrANasyAnvESaNam anusandhAnanjca kRtavantaH|
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;
ataEva yUyaM manaHkaTibandhanaM kRtvA prabuddhAH santO yIzukhrISTasya prakAzasamayE yuSmAsu varttiSyamAnasyAnugrahasya sampUrNAM pratyAzAM kuruta|
14 as children of obedience, not conformed to [your] former lusts in your ignorance;
aparaM pUrvvIyAjnjAnatAvasthAyAH kutsitAbhilASANAM yOgyam AcAraM na kurvvantO yuSmadAhvAnakArI yathA pavitrO 'sti
15 but as he who has called you is holy, be ye also holy in all [your] conversation;
yUyamapyAjnjAgrAhisantAnA iva sarvvasmin AcArE tAdRk pavitrA bhavata|
16 because it is written, Be ye holy, for I am holy.
yatO likhitam AstE, yUyaM pavitrAstiSThata yasmAdahaM pavitraH|
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,
aparanjca yO vinApakSapAtam EkaikamAnuSasya karmmAnusArAd vicAraM karOti sa yadi yuSmAbhistAta AkhyAyatE tarhi svapravAsasya kAlO yuSmAbhi rbhItyA yApyatAM|
18 knowing that ye have been redeemed, not by corruptible [things, as] silver or gold, from your vain conversation handed down from [your] fathers,
yUyaM nirarthakAt paitRkAcArAt kSayaNIyai rUpyasuvarNAdibhi rmuktiM na prApya
19 but by precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot, [the blood] of Christ,
niSkalagkanirmmalamESazAvakasyEva khrISTasya bahumUlyEna rudhirENa muktiM prAptavanta iti jAnItha|
20 foreknown indeed before [the] foundation of [the] world, but who has been manifested at the end of times for your sakes,
sa jagatO bhittimUlasthApanAt pUrvvaM niyuktaH kintu caramadinESu yuSmadarthaM prakAzitO 'bhavat|
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.
yatastEnaiva mRtagaNAt tasyOtthApayitari tasmai gauravadAtari cEzvarE vizvasitha tasmAd IzvarE yuSmAkaM vizvAsaH pratyAzA cAstE|
22 Having purified your souls by obedience to the truth to unfeigned brotherly love, love one another out of a pure heart fervently;
yUyam AtmanA satyamatasyAjnjAgrahaNadvArA niSkapaTAya bhrAtRprEmnE pAvitamanasO bhUtvA nirmmalAntaHkaraNaiH parasparaM gAPhaM prEma kuruta|
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;
