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-AshiyA-bithuniyAdesheShu 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,

4 to an incorruptible and undefiled and unfading inheritance, reserved in [the] heavens for you,

5 who are kept guarded by [the] power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in [the] last time.
yUya ncheshvarasya shaktitaH sheShakAle prakAshyaparitrANArthaM vishvAsena rakShyadhve|
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 nAnAvidhaparIkShAbhiH klishyadhve|
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 parIkShA bhavati tasmAt nashvarasuvarNAdapi bahumUlyaM yuShmAkaM vishvAsarUpaM yat parIkShitaM svarNaM tena yIshukhrIShTasyAgamanasamaye prashaMsAyAH samAdarasya gauravasya cha 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;
yuShmAsu yo. anugraho varttate tadviShaye ya IshvarIyavAkyaM kathitavantaste bhaviShyadvAdinastasya paritrANasyAnveShaNam anusandhAna ncha kR^itavantaH|
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 kR^itvA prabuddhAH santo yIshukhrIShTasya prakAshasamaye yuShmAsu varttiShyamAnasyAnugrahasya sampUrNAM pratyAshAM kuruta|
14 as children of obedience, not conformed to [your] former lusts in your ignorance;
aparaM pUrvvIyAj nAnatAvasthAyAH kutsitAbhilAShANAM yogyam AchAraM na kurvvanto yuShmadAhvAnakArI yathA pavitro. asti
15 but as he who has called you is holy, be ye also holy in all [your] conversation;
yUyamapyAj nAgrAhisantAnA iva sarvvasmin AchAre tAdR^ik pavitrA bhavata|
16 because it is written, Be ye holy, for I am holy.
yato likhitam Aste, yUyaM pavitrAstiShThata 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,
apara ncha yo vinApakShapAtam ekaikamAnuShasya karmmAnusArAd vichAraM karoti sa yadi yuShmAbhistAta AkhyAyate tarhi svapravAsasya kAlo yuShmAbhi 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 paitR^ikAchArAt kShayaNIyai rUpyasuvarNAdibhi rmuktiM na prApya
19 but by precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot, [the blood] of Christ,
niShkala NkanirmmalameShashAvakasyeva khrIShTasya 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 charamadineShu yuShmadarthaM prakAshito. abhavat|
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 mR^itagaNAt tasyotthApayitari tasmai gauravadAtari cheshvare vishvasitha tasmAd Ishvare yuShmAkaM vishvAsaH pratyAshA chAste|
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 satyamatasyAj nAgrahaNadvArA niShkapaTAya bhrAtR^ipremne pAvitamanaso bhUtvA nirmmalAntaHkaraNaiH parasparaM gADhaM 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;
