< 1 Peter 4 >
1 Christ therefore having suffered (for of us *K*) in [the] flesh also you yourselves the same mind do arm yourselves with, because the [one] having suffered (in *k*) [the] flesh has himself done (with sin; *NK(o)*)
Forasmuch then as Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;
2 so as no longer to men’s desires but to [the] will of God the remaining in [the] flesh to live time.
that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for human desires, but for the will of God.
3 [Is] sufficient for (to us *K*) the having past time (of life *K*) the (desire *N(k)O*) of the Gentiles (to have carried out *N(k)O*) having walked in sensuality, in lusts, in drunkenness, in orgies, in carousing, and in abominable idolatries;
For enough time in the past has been spent doing the will of the unbelievers, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, orgies, carousings, and abominable idolatries.
4 With respect to this they think it strange not running with [them] of you into the same of debauchery overflow denigrating [you],
They think it is strange that you do not run with them into the same flood of debauchery, blaspheming:
5 who will give account to Him who ready is (to judge *NK(o)*) [the] living and [the] dead.
who will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 To this [end] indeed even to [the] dead it was evangelised, so that they may be judged indeed according to men in [the] flesh, they may live however according to God in [the] spirit.
For this reason also the Good News was preached to those who are now dead, that they might be judged according to man in the flesh, but might live according to God in the Spirit.
7 Of all now the end has drawn near; do be clear-minded therefore and do sober for the purpose of (*k*) prayers
But the end of all things is near. Therefore be serious and disciplined in your prayers.
8 above all things (now *k*) among yourselves love fervent having, because love (covers over *N(k)O*) a multitude of sins.
Above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.
9 hospitable to one another without (complaint; *N(k)O*)
Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.
10 each even as has received a gift to each other them serving as good stewards of [the] manifold grace of God:
As each has received a gift, employ it in serving one another, as good managers of the grace of God in its various forms.
11 if anyone speaks as oracles of God; if anyone serves as of strength (which *NK(o)*) supplies God; so that in all things may be glorified God through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory and the power to the ages of the ages, Amen. (aiōn )
If anyone speaks, let it be as it were the very words of God. If anyone serves, let it be as of the strength which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
12 Beloved, not do be surprised at the among you fire for a trial to you taking place as if a strange thing to you were happening;
Beloved, do not be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you, to test you, as though a strange thing happened to you.
13 But as you have shared in the of Christ sufferings do rejoice, so that also in the revelation of the glory of Him you may rejoice exulting.
But because you are partakers of Christ's sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy.
14 If you are insulted in [the] name of Christ, [you are] blessed; because of glory and of God [the] Spirit upon you rests (according to indeed them he is blasphemed according to however you he is honored. *K*)
If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed; because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.
15 Not for any of you should suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evildoer or as a troublesome meddler;
For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler.
16 if however as a Christian, not he should be ashamed, he should glorify however God in (name *N(K)O*) this.
But if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this name.
17 For [it is] the time [for] to have begun the judgment from the house of God; if now first from us, what [will be] the outcome of those disobeying the of God gospel?
For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins first with us, what will happen to those who do not obey the Good News of God?
18 And If the righteous [one] with difficulty is saved, the (now *o*) ungodly and sinner where will appear?
And "If the righteous is delivered with difficulty, where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?"
19 Therefore also those suffering according to the will of God (as *K*) to [the] faithful Creator they should commit the souls (of them *N(k)O*) in well doing.
Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to a faithful Creator.
