1 Peter 1
1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus (the) Messiah, to the chosen ones who are living as foreigners in the Diaspora in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
Petrus apostolus Iesu Christi electis advenis dispersionis Ponti Galatiae Cappadociae Asiae et Bithyniae
2 according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus (the) Messiah and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
secundum praescientiam Dei Patris in sanctificatione Spiritus in oboedientiam et aspersionem sanguinis Iesu Christi gratia vobis et pax multiplicetur
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus (the) Messiah, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus (the) Messiah from the dead,
benedictus Deus et Pater Domini nostri Iesu Christi qui secundum magnam misericordiam suam regeneravit nos in spem vivam per resurrectionem Iesu Christi ex mortuis
4 to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that does not fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
in hereditatem incorruptibilem et incontaminatam et inmarcescibilem conservatam in caelis in vobis
5 who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
qui in virtute Dei custodimini per fidem in salutem paratam revelari in tempore novissimo
6 Wherein you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials,
in quo exultatis modicum nunc si oportet contristati in variis temptationibus
7 that the genuineness of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes even though it is tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor when Jesus (the) Messiah is revealed—
ut probatum vestrae fidei multo pretiosius sit auro quod perit per ignem probato inveniatur in laudem et gloriam et honorem in revelatione Iesu Christi
8 whom not having seen you love; in whom, though now you do not see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy inexpressible and full of glory—
quem cum non videritis diligitis in quem nunc quoque non videntes credentes autem exultatis laetitia inenarrabili et glorificata
9 receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
reportantes finem fidei vestrae salutem animarum
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
de qua salute exquisierunt atque scrutati sunt prophetae qui de futura in vobis gratia prophetaverunt
11 searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Messiah, which was in them, pointed to, when he predicted the sufferings of Messiah, and the glories that would follow them.
scrutantes in quod vel quale tempus significaret in eis Spiritus Christi praenuntians eas quae in Christo sunt passiones et posteriores glorias
12 To them it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you, they ministered these things, which now have been announced to you through those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent out from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.
quibus revelatum est quia non sibi ipsis vobis autem ministrabant ea quae nunc nuntiata sunt vobis per eos qui evangelizaverunt vos Spiritu Sancto misso de caelo in quae desiderant angeli prospicere
13 Therefore, prepare your minds for action, be sober and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you when Jesus (the) Messiah is revealed.
propter quod succincti lumbos mentis vestrae sobrii perfecte sperate in eam quae offertur vobis gratiam in revelatione Iesu Christi
14 As obedient children, do not be conformed to the desires as in your ignorance,
quasi filii oboedientiae non configurati prioribus ignorantiae vestrae desideriis
15 but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior;
sed secundum eum qui vocavit vos sanctum et ipsi sancti in omni conversatione sitis
16 because it is written, "Be holy, for I am holy."
quoniam scriptum est sancti eritis quia ego sanctus sum
17 If you call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judges according to each man's work, pass the time of your living as foreigners here in reverent fear:
et si Patrem invocatis eum qui sine acceptione personarum iudicat secundum uniuscuiusque opus in timore incolatus vestri tempore conversamini
18 knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers,
scientes quod non corruptibilibus argento vel auro redempti estis de vana vestra conversatione paternae traditionis
19 but with precious blood, as of an unblemished and spotless lamb, namely Messiah.
sed pretioso sanguine quasi agni incontaminati et inmaculati Christi
20 He was chosen in advance before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake,
praecogniti quidem ante constitutionem mundi manifestati autem novissimis temporibus propter vos
21 who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.
qui per ipsum fideles estis in Deo qui suscitavit eum a mortuis et dedit ei gloriam ut fides vestra et spes esset in Deo
22 Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from a pure heart fervently:
animas vestras castificantes in oboedientia caritatis in fraternitatis amore simplici ex corde invicem diligite adtentius
23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the living and abiding word of God. (aiōn g165)
renati non ex semine corruptibili sed incorruptibili per verbum Dei vivi et permanentis (aiōn g165)
24 For, "All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;
quia omnis caro ut faenum et omnis gloria eius tamquam flos faeni exaruit faenum et flos decidit
