< 1 Peter 1 >

1 Peter an apostle of Jesus Christ To [the] elect sojourners of [the] Dispersion of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
panta-gālātiyā-kappadakiyā-āśiyā-bithuniyādeśeṣu pravāsino ye vikīrṇalokāḥ
2 according to [the] foreknowledge of God [the] Father by [the] sanctification of [the] Spirit unto [the] obedience and sprinkling of [the] blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace would be multiplied.
piturīśvarasya pūrvvanirṇayād ātmanaḥ pāvanena yīśukhrīṣṭasyājñāgrahaṇāya śoṇitaprokṣaṇāya cābhirucitāstān prati yīśukhrīṣṭasya preritaḥ pitaraḥ patraṁ likhati| yuṣmān prati bāhulyena śāntiranugrahaśca bhūyāstāṁ|
3 Blessed [be] the God and Father of the Lord of us Jesus Christ, the [One] according to the great of Him mercy having begotten again us to a hope living through [the] resurrection of Jesus Christ out from [the] dead,
asmākaṁ prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya tāta īśvaro dhanyaḥ, yataḥ sa svakīyabahukṛpāto mṛtagaṇamadhyād yīśukhrīṣṭasyotthānena jīvanapratyāśārtham arthato
4 to an inheritance imperishable and undefiled and unfading reserved in [the] heavens for (you *NK(O)*)
'kṣayaniṣkalaṅkāmlānasampattiprāptyartham asmān puna rjanayāmāsa| sā sampattiḥ svarge 'smākaṁ kṛte sañcitā tiṣṭhati,
5 who by [the] power of God [are] being guarded through faith for [the] salvation ready to be revealed in [the] time last;
yūyañceśvarasya śaktitaḥ śeṣakāle prakāśyaparitrāṇārthaṁ viśvāsena rakṣyadhve|
6 in which you greatly rejoice for a little while at present, if being necessary it is, (having been put to grief *NK(o)*) by various trials
tasmād yūyaṁ yadyapyānandena praphullā bhavatha tathāpi sāmprataṁ prayojanahetoḥ kiyatkālaparyyantaṁ nānāvidhaparīkṣābhiḥ kliśyadhve|
7 so that the proven genuineness of your faith (more precious *N(k)O*) than gold which is perishing through fire though being refined it may be discovered towards praise and (towards *o*) glory and honor in [the] revelation of Jesus Christ;
yato vahninā yasya parīkṣā bhavati tasmāt naśvarasuvarṇādapi bahumūlyaṁ yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsarūpaṁ yat parīkṣitaṁ svarṇaṁ tena yīśukhrīṣṭasyāgamanasamaye praśaṁsāyāḥ samādarasya gauravasya ca yogyatā prāptavyā|
8 whom not (having seen *N(k)O*) you love, on whom now [though] not seeing believing now (you yourself rejoice *NK(o)*) with joy inexpressible and glory-filled,
yūyaṁ taṁ khrīṣṭam adṛṣṭvāpi tasmin prīyadhve sāmprataṁ taṁ na paśyanto'pi tasmin viśvasanto 'nirvvacanīyena prabhāvayuktena cānandena praphullā bhavatha,
9 receiving the outcome of the faith of you, [the] salvation of [your] souls;
svaviśvāsasya pariṇāmarūpam ātmanāṁ paritrāṇaṁ labhadhve ca|
10 Concerning this salvation sought out and searched out diligently [the] prophets of the toward you grace having prophesied,
yuṣmāsu yo 'nugraho varttate tadviṣaye ya īśvarīyavākyaṁ kathitavantaste bhaviṣyadvādinastasya paritrāṇasyānveṣaṇam anusandhānañca kṛtavantaḥ|
11 inquiring into what or what manner of time was signifying the in them Spirit of Christ testifying beforehand unto Christ's sufferings and the after these glories;
viśeṣatasteṣāmantarvvāsī yaḥ khrīṣṭasyātmā khrīṣṭe varttiṣyamāṇāni duḥkhāni tadanugāmiprabhāvañca pūrvvaṁ prākāśayat tena kaḥ kīdṛśo vā samayo niradiśyataitasyānusandhānaṁ kṛtavantaḥ|
12 to whom it was revealed that not themselves (you *N(K)O*) however they were serving in those things which now have been proclaimed to you through those having evangelised you by [the] Spirit Holy having been sent from heaven, into which desire angels to look.
tatastai rviṣayaiste yanna svān kintvasmān upakurvvantyetat teṣāṁ nikaṭe prākāśyata| yāṁśca tān viṣayān divyadūtā apyavanataśiraso nirīkṣitum abhilaṣanti te viṣayāḥ sāmprataṁ svargāt preṣitasya pavitrasyātmanaḥ sahāyyād yuṣmatsamīpe susaṁvādapracārayitṛbhiḥ prākāśyanta|
13 Therefore having girded up the loins of the mind of you, being sober-minded, fully do set [your] hope upon which is being brought to you grace in [the] revelation of Jesus Christ.
ataeva yūyaṁ manaḥkaṭibandhanaṁ kṛtvā prabuddhāḥ santo yīśukhrīṣṭasya prakāśasamaye yuṣmāsu varttiṣyamānasyānugrahasya sampūrṇāṁ pratyāśāṁ kuruta|
14 as children of obedience not fashioning yourselves to the former in the ignorance of you desires,
aparaṁ pūrvvīyājñānatāvasthāyāḥ kutsitābhilāṣāṇāṁ yogyam ācāraṁ na kurvvanto yuṣmadāhvānakārī yathā pavitro 'sti
15 But as the [One] having called you [is] holy also yourselves holy in all [your] conduct do be,
yūyamapyājñāgrāhisantānā iva sarvvasmin ācāre tādṛk pavitrā bhavata|
16 because it has been written: (that *no*) Holy (you will be, *N(k)(o)*) because I myself holy (am. *NK*)
yato likhitam āste, yūyaṁ pavitrāstiṣṭhata yasmādahaṁ pavitraḥ|
17 And if [as] Father you call on the [One] impartially judging according to the of each work, in fear during the of the sojourn of you time do conduct yourselves;
aparañca yo vināpakṣapātam ekaikamānuṣasya karmmānusārād vicāraṁ karoti sa yadi yuṣmābhistāta ākhyāyate tarhi svapravāsasya kālo yuṣmābhi rbhītyā yāpyatāṁ|
18 knowing that not by perishable things — by silver or by gold — you were redeemed from the futile of you manner of life handed down from [your] fathers,
yūyaṁ nirarthakāt paitṛkācārāt kṣayaṇīyai rūpyasuvarṇādibhi rmuktiṁ na prāpya
19 but by [the] precious blood as of a lamb without blemish and without spot of Christ,
niṣkalaṅkanirmmalameṣaśāvakasyeva khrīṣṭasya bahumūlyena rudhireṇa muktiṁ prāptavanta iti jānītha|
20 foreknown indeed before [the] foundation [the] world, having been revealed however in ([this] last *N(k)O*) of the times for the sake of you
sa jagato bhittimūlasthāpanāt pūrvvaṁ niyuktaḥ kintu caramadineṣu yuṣmadarthaṁ prakāśito 'bhavat|
21 who through Him (believing *N(k)O*) in God, the [one] having raised up Him out from [the] dead and glory Him having given, so as for the faith of you and hope to be in God.
yatastenaiva mṛtagaṇāt tasyotthāpayitari tasmai gauravadātari ceśvare viśvasitha tasmād īśvare yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsaḥ pratyāśā cāste|
22 The souls of you having purified by obedience to the truth (through spirit *K*) unto brotherly love sincere out of purity of heart one another do love fervently;
yūyam ātmanā satyamatasyājñāgrahaṇadvārā niṣkapaṭāya bhrātṛpremne pāvitamanaso bhūtvā nirmmalāntaḥkaraṇaiḥ parasparaṁ gāḍhaṁ prema kuruta|
23 born again not of seed perishable but of imperishable through [the] word living of God and abiding (into the age; *K*) (aiōn g165)
yasmād yūyaṁ kṣayaṇīyavīryyāt nahi kintvakṣayaṇīyavīryyād īśvarasya jīvanadāyakena nityasthāyinā vākyena punarjanma gṛhītavantaḥ| (aiōn g165)
24 because All flesh [is] like grass, and all [the] glory (of it *N(K)O*) like [the] flower of grass; Withers the grass, and the flower (of him *K*) falls away;
sarvvaprāṇī tṛṇaistulyastattejastṛṇapuṣpavat| tṛṇāni pariśuṣyati puṣpāṇi nipatanti ca|
25 but the declaration of [the] Lord abides to the age. This now is the declaration which having been evangelised to you. (aiōn g165)
kintu vākyaṁ pareśasyānantakālaṁ vitiṣṭhate| tadeva ca vākyaṁ susaṁvādena yuṣmākam antike prakāśitaṁ| (aiōn g165)
