1 Peter 2
1 Wherefore laying away all malice, and all guile, and dissimulations, and envies, and all detractions,
αποθεμενοι ουν πασαν κακιαν και παντα δολον και υποκρισεισ και φθονουσ και πασασ καταλαλιασ
2 As newborn babes, desire the rational milk without guile, that thereby you may grow unto salvation:
ωσ αρτιγεννητα βρεφη το λογικον αδολον γαλα επιποθησατε ινα εν αυτω αυξηθητε
3 If so be you have tasted that the Lord is sweet.
ειπερ εγευσασθε οτι χρηστοσ ο κυριοσ
4 Unto whom coming, as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen and made honourable by God:
προσ ον προσερχομενοι λιθον ζωντα υπο ανθρωπων μεν αποδεδοκιμασμενον παρα δε θεω εκλεκτον εντιμον
5 Be you also as living stones built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
και αυτοι ωσ λιθοι ζωντεσ οικοδομεισθε οικοσ πνευματικοσ ιερατευμα αγιον ανενεγκαι πνευματικασ θυσιασ ευπροσδεκτουσ τω θεω δια ιησου χριστου
6 Wherefore it is said in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious. And he that shall believe in him, shall not be confounded.
διοτι περιεχει εν τη γραφη ιδου τιθημι εν σιων λιθον ακρογωνιαιον εκλεκτον εντιμον και ο πιστευων επ αυτω ου μη καταισχυνθη
7 To you therefore that believe, he is honour: but to them that believe not, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner:
υμιν ουν η τιμη τοισ πιστευουσιν απειθουσιν δε λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντεσ ουτοσ εγενηθη εισ κεφαλην γωνιασ
8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of scandal, to them who stumble at the word, neither do believe, whereunto also they are set.
και λιθοσ προσκομματοσ και πετρα σκανδαλου οι προσκοπτουσιν τω λογω απειθουντεσ εισ ο και ετεθησαν
9 But you are a chosen generation, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased people: that you may declare his virtues, who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
υμεισ δε γενοσ εκλεκτον βασιλειον ιερατευμα εθνοσ αγιον λαοσ εισ περιποιησιν οπωσ τασ αρετασ εξαγγειλητε του εκ σκοτουσ υμασ καλεσαντοσ εισ το θαυμαστον αυτου φωσ
10 Who in time past were not a people: but are now the people of God. Who had not obtained mercy; but now have obtained mercy.
οι ποτε ου λαοσ νυν δε λαοσ θεου οι ουκ ηλεημενοι νυν δε ελεηθεντεσ
11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, to refrain yourselves from carnal desires which war against the soul,
αγαπητοι παρακαλω ωσ παροικουσ και παρεπιδημουσ απεχεσθαι των σαρκικων επιθυμιων αιτινεσ στρατευονται κατα τησ ψυχησ
12 Having your conversation good among the Gentiles: that whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by the good works, which they shall behold in you, glorify God in the day of visitation.
την αναστροφην υμων εχοντεσ καλην εν τοισ εθνεσιν ινα εν ω καταλαλουσιν υμων ωσ κακοποιων εκ των καλων εργων εποπτευσαντεσ δοξασωσιν τον θεον εν ημερα επισκοπησ
13 Be ye subject therefore to every human creature for God’s sake: whether it be to the king as excelling;
υποταγητε ουν παση ανθρωπινη κτισει δια τον κυριον ειτε βασιλει ωσ υπερεχοντι
14 Or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of the good:
ειτε ηγεμοσιν ωσ δι αυτου πεμπομενοισ εισ εκδικησιν κακοποιων επαινον δε αγαθοποιων
15 For so is the will of God, that by doing well you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
οτι ουτωσ εστιν το θελημα του θεου αγαθοποιουντασ φιμουν την των αφρονων ανθρωπων αγνωσιαν
16 As free, and not as making liberty a cloak for malice, but as the servants of God.
ωσ ελευθεροι και μη ωσ επικαλυμμα εχοντεσ τησ κακιασ την ελευθεριαν αλλ ωσ δουλοι θεου
17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
παντασ τιμησατε την αδελφοτητα αγαπησατε τον θεον φοβεισθε τον βασιλεα τιματε
18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
οι οικεται υποτασσομενοι εν παντι φοβω τοισ δεσποταισ ου μονον τοισ αγαθοισ και επιεικεσιν αλλα και τοισ σκολιοισ
19 For this is thankworthy, if for conscience towards God, a man endure sorrows, suffering wrongfully.
τουτο γαρ χαρισ ει δια συνειδησιν θεου υποφερει τισ λυπασ πασχων αδικωσ
20 For what glory is it, if committing sin, and being buffeted for it, you endure? But if doing well you suffer patiently; this is thankworthy before God.
ποιον γαρ κλεοσ ει αμαρτανοντεσ και κολαφιζομενοι υπομενειτε αλλ ει αγαθοποιουντεσ και πασχοντεσ υπομενειτε τουτο χαρισ παρα θεω
21 For unto this are you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example that you should follow his steps.
εισ τουτο γαρ εκληθητε οτι και χριστοσ επαθεν υπερ ημων υμιν υπολιμπανων υπογραμμον ινα επακολουθησητε τοισ ιχνεσιν αυτου
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth.
οσ αμαρτιαν ουκ εποιησεν ουδε ευρεθη δολοσ εν τω στοματι αυτου
23 Who, when he was reviled, did not revile: when he suffered, he threatened not: but delivered himself to him that judged him unjustly.
οσ λοιδορουμενοσ ουκ αντελοιδορει πασχων ουκ ηπειλει παρεδιδου δε τω κρινοντι δικαιωσ
24 Who his own self bore our sins in his body upon the tree: that we, being dead to sins, should live to justice: by whose stripes you were healed.
οσ τασ αμαρτιασ ημων αυτοσ ανηνεγκεν εν τω σωματι αυτου επι το ξυλον ινα ταισ αμαρτιαισ απογενομενοι τη δικαιοσυνη ζησωμεν ου τω μωλωπι αυτου ιαθητε
25 For you were as sheep going astray; but you are now converted to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.
ητε γαρ ωσ προβατα πλανωμενα αλλ επεστραφητε νυν επι τον ποιμενα και επισκοπον των ψυχων υμων
