1 Peter 2
1 Having put aside therefore all malice and all deceit and (hypocrisies *NK(O)*) and envies and all evil speakings
Having put aside, then, all evil, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envyings, and all evil speakings,
2 like newborn babies reasonable pure milk do crave so that by it you may grow up (in respect to salvation, *NO*)
as new-born babes the word's pure milk desire ye, that in it ye may grow,
3 (if *N(k)O*) you have tasted that [is] good the Lord.
if so be ye did taste that the Lord [is] gracious,
4 To whom coming a stone living, by men indeed rejected in the sight of however God chosen [and] precious,
to whom coming — a living stone — by men, indeed, having been disapproved of, but with God choice, precious,
5 also you yourselves as stones living are being built up as a house spiritual (into *no*) a priesthood holy to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable (*NK*) to God through Jesus Christ.
and ye yourselves, as living stones, are built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
6 (Therefore *N(k)O*) it is contained in (*k*) Scripture: Behold I lay in Zion a stone cornerstone a chosen precious, and the [one] who is believing on Him certainly not may be put to shame.
Wherefore, also, it is contained in the Writing: 'Lo, I lay in Zion a chief corner-stone, choice, precious, and he who is believing on him may not be put to shame;'
7 To you therefore [is] the preciousness of those believing; ([for those] disbelieving *N(K)O*) however ([the] stone *N(k)O*) which rejected those building, this has become into [the] head of [the] corner
to you, then, who are believing [is] the preciousness; and to the unbelieving, a stone that the builders disapproved of, this one did become for the head of a corner,
8 and A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense, [They] stumble at on the word being disobedient, to which also they were appointed;
and a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence — who are stumbling at the word, being unbelieving, — to which also they were set;
9 You yourselves however [are] a race chosen, a royal priesthood, a nation holy, a people for [His] possession, so that the excellencies you may proclaim of the [One] out of darkness you having called to the marvelous of Him light;
and ye [are] a choice race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people acquired, that the excellences ye may shew forth of Him who out of darkness did call you to His wondrous light;
10 who once [were] not a people, now however [the] people of God, those [who] not received mercy, now however having received mercy.
who [were] once not a people, and [are] now the people of God; who had not found kindness, and now have found kindness.
11 Beloved, I exhort [you] as aliens and sojourners to abstain from fleshly desires, which war against the soul;
Beloved, I call upon [you], as strangers and sojourners, to keep from the fleshly desires, that war against the soul,
12 the conduct of you among the Gentiles keeping honorable, so that wherein which they speak against you as evildoers, through the good deeds (having witnessed *N(k)O*) they may glorify God in [the] day of visitation.
having your behaviour among the nations right, that in that which they speak against you as evil-doers, of the good works having beheld, they may glorify God in a day of inspection.
13 do be subjected (therefore *K*) to every human institution for the sake of the Lord; whether to [the] king as being supreme;
Be subject, then, to every human creation, because of the Lord, whether to a king, as the highest,
14 or to governors as through him being sent for vengeance (indeed *k*) to evildoers, praise however to well-doers;
whether to governors, as to those sent through him, for punishment, indeed, of evil-doers, and a praise of those doing good;
15 because this is the will of God doing good to put to silence the of foolish men ignorance;
because, so is the will of God, doing good, to put to silence the ignorance of the foolish men;
16 as free and not as a cover-up having for evil the freedom, but as of God servants.
as free, and not having the freedom as the cloak of the evil, but as servants of God;
17 Everyone do honor, The brotherhood (do love, *NK(o)*) God do fear, the king do honor.
to all give ye honour; the brotherhood love ye; God fear ye; the king honour ye.
18 you who [are] Servants be subject with all fear to masters, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the unreasonable.
The domestics! be subjecting yourselves in all fear to the masters, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the cross;
19 This for [is] acceptable, if for sake of conscience toward God endures anyone griefs suffering unjustly.
for this [is] gracious, if because of conscience toward God any one doth endure sorrows, suffering unrighteously;
20 What kind of for credit [is it] if sinning and being struck you will endure? But if doing good and suffering you will endure, this [is] commendable before God.
for what renown [is it], if sinning and being buffeted, ye do endure [it]? but if, doing good and suffering [for it], ye do endure, this [is] gracious with God,
21 To this hereunto for you have been called, because also Christ suffered for (for you, *N(K)O*) you leaving an example that you may follow after the steps of Him:
for to this ye were called, because Christ also did suffer for you, leaving to you an example, that ye may follow his steps,
22 Who sin not committed, neither was found trickery in the mouth of Him,
who did not commit sin, nor was guile found in his mouth,
23 Who being reviled not was not reviling back suffering not was threatening He was delivering [Himself] however to the [One] judging justly;
who being reviled — was not reviling again, suffering — was not threatening, and was committing himself to Him who is judging righteously,
24 Who the sins of us Himself bore in the body of Him on the tree so that to sins having been dead to righteousness we may live; Of whom by the wounds (of him *k*) you have been healed.
who our sins himself did bear in his body, upon the tree, that to the sins having died, to the righteousness we may live; by whose stripes ye were healed,
25 You were for like sheep (going astray *N(k)O*) but you have returned now to the Shepherd and Overseer of the souls of you.
for ye were as sheep going astray, but ye turned back now to the shepherd and overseer of your souls.
