1 Peter 4

1 Christ, then, having suffered for us in the flesh, do you also warm yourselves with the same mind: for he who has suffered in the flesh, has ceased from sin;

Χριστοῦ οὖν παθόντος (ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν *K*) σαρκὶ καὶ ὑμεῖς τὴν αὐτὴν ἔννοιαν ὁπλίσασθε, ὅτι ὁ παθὼν (ἐν *k*) σαρκὶ πέπαυται (ἁμαρτίας· *NK(o)*)

2 so that he no longer lives his remaining time in the flesh, to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

εἰς τὸ μηκέτι ἀνθρώπων ἐπιθυμίαις, ἀλλὰ θελήματι θεοῦ τὸν ἐπίλοιπον ἐν σαρκὶ βιῶσαι χρόνον.

3 For the time which has passed of life, is sufficient to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, having walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excesses in wine, revelings, carousals, and abominable idolatries.

ἀρκετὸς γὰρ (ἡμῖν *K*) ὁ παρεληλυθὼς χρόνος (τοῦ βίου *K*) τὸ (βούλημα *N(k)O*) τῶν ἐθνῶν (κατειργάσθαι *N(k)O*) πεπορευμένους ἐν ἀσελγείαις, ἐπιθυμίαις, οἰνοφλυγίαις, κώμοις, πότοις, καὶ ἀθεμίτοις εἰδωλολατρίαις·

4 On which account they wonder that you do not run with them, into the same sink of debauchery, reviling you, --

ἐν ᾧ ξενίζονται μὴ συντρεχόντων ὑμῶν εἰς τὴν αὐτὴν τῆς ἀσωτίας ἀνάχυσιν βλασφημοῦντες,

5 who shall give account to him who is prepared to judge the living and the dead.

οἳ ἀποδώσουσιν λόγον τῷ ἑτοίμως ἔχοντι (κρῖναι *NK(o)*) ζῶντας καὶ νεκρούς.

6 For, to this end of the gospel was preached to the dead, that they might, indeed, be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

εἰς τοῦτο γὰρ καὶ νεκροῖς εὐηγγελίσθη, ἵνα κριθῶσιν μὲν κατὰ ἀνθρώπους σαρκί, ζῶσιν δὲ κατὰ θεὸν πνεύματι.

7 Now the end of all things has approached; be, therefore, sober, and watch to prayer.

Πάντων δὲ τὸ τέλος ἤγγικεν· σωφρονήσατε οὖν καὶ νήψατε εἰς (τὰς *k*) προσευχάς,

8 And above all things, have fervent love to one another; for love will cover a multitude of sins.

πρὸ πάντων (δὲ *k*) τὴν εἰς ἑαυτοὺς ἀγάπην ἐκτενῆ ἔχοντες, ὅτι ἀγάπη (καλύπτει *N(k)O*) πλῆθος ἁμαρτιῶν.

9 Be hospitable to one another, without murmurings.

φιλόξενοι εἰς ἀλλήλους ἄνευ (γογγυσμοῦ· *N(k)O*)

10 Let every one, according as he has received a gift, minister it to the others, as good stewards of the manifold favor of God.

ἕκαστος καθὼς ἔλαβεν χάρισμα εἰς ἑαυτοὺς αὐτὸ διακονοῦντες ὡς καλοὶ οἰκονόμοι ποικίλης χάριτος θεοῦ·

11 If any one speak, let him speak as the oracles of God: if any one minister, let him do it as from the strength which God supplies; that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

εἴ τις λαλεῖ ὡς λόγια θεοῦ· εἴ τις διακονεῖ ὡς ἐξ ἰσχύος (ἧς *NK(o)*) χορηγεῖ ὁ θεός· ἵνα ἐν πᾶσιν δοξάζηται ὁ θεὸς διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, ᾧ ἐστιν ἡ δόξα καὶ τὸ κράτος εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων, ἀμήν. (aiōn g165)

12 Beloved, wonder not at the fiery trial among you, which is come upon you for a trial, as if some strange thing happened to you;

Ἀγαπητοί, μὴ ξενίζεσθε τῇ ἐν ὑμῖν πυρώσει πρὸς πειρασμὸν ὑμῖν γινομένῃ ὡς ξένου ὑμῖν συμβαίνοντος·

13 but, seeing you partake of the sufferings of Christ, rejoice: that, also, at the revelation of his glory you may rejoice, with exceeding great joy.

ἀλλὰ καθὸ κοινωνεῖτε τοῖς τοῦ Χριστοῦ παθήμασιν χαίρετε, ἵνα καὶ ἐν τῇ ἀποκαλύψει τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ χαρῆτε ἀγαλλιώμενοι.

14 If you be reproached for the name of Christ, you are happy; because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.

εἰ ὀνειδίζεσθε ἐν ὀνόματι Χριστοῦ, μακάριοι· ὅτι τὸ τῆς δόξης καὶ τὸ τοῦ θεοῦ πνεῦμα ἐφ᾽ ὑμᾶς ἀναπαύεται (κατὰ μὲν αὐτοὺς βλασφημεῖται κατὰ δὲ ὑμᾶς δοξάζεται. *K*)

15 By them, indeed, he is evil spoken of, but by you he is glorified. Wherefore, let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a malefactor, or as a meddling person.

Μὴ γάρ τις ὑμῶν πασχέτω ὡς φονεὺς ἢ κλέπτης ἢ κακοποιὸς ἢ ὡς ἀλλοτριεπίσκοπος·

16 However, if any one suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him even glorify God on that account.

εἰ δὲ ὡς Χριστιανός, μὴ αἰσχυνέσθω, δοξαζέτω δὲ τὸν θεὸν ἐν τῷ (ὀνόματι *N(K)O*) τούτῳ.

17 Indeed, the time is come that punishment must begin at the house of God; and if it begin first at us, what the end of them who do not obey the gospel of God?

ὅτι ὁ καιρὸς τοῦ ἄρξασθαι τὸ κρίμα ἀπὸ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ θεοῦ· εἰ δὲ πρῶτον ἀφ᾽ ἡμῶν, τί τὸ τέλος τῶν ἀπειθούντων τῷ τοῦ θεοῦ εὐαγγελίῳ;

18 And, if the righteous with difficulty escape, where will the ungodly and the sinner appear!

καὶ εἰ ὁ δίκαιος μόλις σῴζεται, ὁ (δὲ *o*) ἀσεβὴς καὶ ἁμαρτωλὸς ποῦ φανεῖται;

19 Wherefore, then, let those who suffer by the will of God, commit their own lives to him in well doing, as a faithful Creator.

ὥστε καὶ οἱ πάσχοντες κατὰ τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ (ὡς, *K*) πιστῷ κτίστῃ παρατιθέσθωσαν τὰς ψυχὰς (αὐτῶν *N(k)O*) ἐν ἀγαθοποιΐᾳ.
