1 Peter 1
1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the choice sojourners of the dispersion of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
Petrus apostolus Iesu Christi electis advenis dispersionis Ponti Galatiae Cappadociae Asiae et Bithyniae
2 according to a foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, to obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: 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 [is] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to the abundance of His kindness did beget us again to a living hope, through the rising again of Jesus Christ out of 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 inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in the heavens for you,
in hereditatem incorruptibilem et incontaminatam et inmarcescibilem conservatam in caelis in vobis
5 who, in the power of God are being guarded, through faith, unto salvation, ready to be revealed in the last time,
qui in virtute Dei custodimini per fidem in salutem paratam revelari in tempore novissimo
6 in which ye are glad, a little now, if it be necessary, being made to sorrow in manifold trials,
in quo exultatis modicum nunc si oportet contristati in variis temptationibus
7 that the proof of your faith — much more precious than of gold that is perishing, and through fire being approved — may be found to praise, and honour, and glory, in the revelation of Jesus Christ,
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, ye love, in whom, now not seeing and believing, ye are glad with joy unspeakable and glorified,
quem cum non videritis diligitis in quem nunc quoque non videntes credentes autem exultatis laetitia inenarrabili et glorificata
9 receiving the end of your faith — salvation of souls;
reportantes finem fidei vestrae salutem animarum
10 concerning which salvation seek out and search out did prophets who concerning the grace toward you did prophecy,
de qua salute exquisierunt atque scrutati sunt prophetae qui de futura in vobis gratia prophetaverunt
11 searching in regard to what or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ that was in them was manifesting, testifying beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glory after these,
scrutantes in quod vel quale tempus significaret in eis Spiritus Christi praenuntians eas quae in Christo sunt passiones et posteriores glorias
12 to whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to us they were ministering these, which now were told to you (through those who did proclaim good news to you, ) in the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, to which things messengers do desire to bend looking.
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 Wherefore having girded up the loins of your mind, being sober, hope perfectly upon the grace that is being brought to you in the revelation of Jesus Christ,
propter quod succincti lumbos mentis vestrae sobrii perfecte sperate in eam quae offertur vobis gratiam in revelatione Iesu Christi
14 as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves to the former desires in your ignorance,
quasi filii oboedientiae non configurati prioribus ignorantiae vestrae desideriis
15 but according as He who did call you [is] holy, ye also, become holy in all behaviour,
sed secundum eum qui vocavit vos sanctum et ipsi sancti in omni conversatione sitis
16 because it hath been written, 'Become ye holy, because I am holy;'
quoniam scriptum est sancti eritis quia ego sanctus sum
17 and if on the Father ye do call, who without acceptance of persons is judging according to the work of each, in fear the time of your sojourn pass ye,
et si Patrem invocatis eum qui sine acceptione personarum iudicat secundum uniuscuiusque opus in timore incolatus vestri tempore conversamini
18 having known that, not with corruptible things — silver or gold — were ye redeemed from your foolish behaviour delivered by fathers,
scientes quod non corruptibilibus argento vel auro redempti estis de vana vestra conversatione paternae traditionis
19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and unspotted — Christ's —
sed pretioso sanguine quasi agni incontaminati et inmaculati Christi
20 foreknown, indeed, before the foundation of the world, and manifested in the last times because of you,
praecogniti quidem ante constitutionem mundi manifestati autem novissimis temporibus propter vos
21 who through him do believe in God, who did raise out of the dead, and glory to him did give, so that your faith and hope may 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 Your souls having purified in the obedience of the truth through the Spirit to brotherly love unfeigned, out of a pure heart one another love ye earnestly,
animas vestras castificantes in oboedientia caritatis in fraternitatis amore simplici ex corde invicem diligite adtentius
23 being begotten again, not out of seed corruptible, but incorruptible, through a word of God — living and remaining — to the age; (aiōn g165)
renati non ex semine corruptibili sed incorruptibili per verbum Dei vivi et permanentis (aiōn g165)
24 because all flesh [is] as grass, and all glory of man as flower of grass; wither did the grass, and the flower of it fell away,
quia omnis caro ut faenum et omnis gloria eius tamquam flos faeni exaruit faenum et flos decidit
