Chapter 2

1 Why3767 laying659 aside659 all3956 malice,2549 and all3956 guile,1388 and hypocrisies,5272 and envies,5355 all3956 evil2636 speakings,2636

2 As newborn738 babes,1025 desire1971 the sincere97 milk1051 of the word,3050 that you may grow837 thereby:1722

3 If1512 so be you have tasted1089 that the Lord2962 is gracious.5543

4 To whom3739 coming,4334 as to a living2198 stone,3037 disallowed593 indeed3303 of men,444 but chosen1588 of God,2316 and precious,1784

5 You also,2532 as lively2198 stones,3037 are built3618 up a spiritual4152 house,3624 an holy40 priesthood,2406 to offer399 up spiritual4152 sacrifices,2378 acceptable2144 to God2316 by Jesus2424 Christ.5547

6 Why1352 also2532 it is contained4023 in the scripture,1124 Behold,2400 I lay5087 in Sion4622 a chief204 corner204 stone,3037 elect,1588 precious:1784 and he that believes4100 on1909 him shall not be confounded.2617

7 To you therefore3767 which3588 believe4100 he is precious:5092 but to them which be disobedient,544 the stone3037 which the builders3618 disallowed,593 the same3778 is made1096 the head2776 of the corner,1137

8 And a stone3037 of stumbling,4348 and a rock4073 of offense,4625 even to them which3739 stumble4350 at the word,3056 being disobedient:544 whereunto1519 3739 also2532 they were appointed.5087

9 But you are a chosen1588 generation,1085 a royal934 priesthood,2406 an holy40 nation,1484 a peculiar1519 4047 people;2992 that you should show1804 forth1804 the praises703 of him who has called2564 you out of darkness4655 into1519 his marvelous2298 light;5457

10 Which3588 in time4218 past were not a people,2992 but are now3568 the people2992 of God:2316 which3588 had not obtained1653 mercy,1653 but now3568 have obtained1653 mercy.1653

11 Dearly beloved,27 I beseech3870 you as strangers3941 and pilgrims,3927 abstain567 from fleshly4559 lusts,1939 which3748 war4754 against2596 the soul;5590

12 Having2192 your5216 conversation391 honest2570 among1722 the Gentiles:1484 that, whereas1722 3759 they speak2635 against1909 you as evildoers,2555 they may by your3588 good2570 works,2041 which they shall behold,2029 glorify1392 God2316 in the day2250 of visitation.1984

13 Submit5293 yourselves to every3956 ordinance2937 of man442 for the Lord's2962 sake: whether1535 it be to the king,935 as supreme;5242

14 Or1535 to governors,2232 as to them that are sent3992 by him for the punishment1557 of evildoers,2555 and for the praise1868 of them that do17 well.17

15 For so3779 is the will2307 of God,2316 that with well15 doing15 you may put5392 to silence5392 the ignorance56 of foolish878 men:444

16 As free,1658 and not using2192 your3588 liberty1657 for a cloak1942 of maliciousness,2549 but as the servants1401 of God.2316

17 Honor5091 all3956 men. Love25 the brotherhood.81 Fear5399 God.2316 Honor5091 the king.935

18 Servants,3610 be subject5293 to your3588 masters1203 with all3956 fear;5401 not only3440 to the good18 and gentle,1933 but also2532 to the fraudulent.4646

19 For this5124 is thank worthy,5485 if1487 a man5100 for conscience4893 toward God2316 endure5297 grief,3077 suffering3958 wrongfully.95

20 For what4169 glory2811 is it, if,1487 when you be buffeted2852 for your faults,264 you shall take it patiently?5278 but if,1487 when you do15 well,15 and suffer3958 for it, you take it patiently,5278 this5124 is acceptable5485 with God.2316

21 For even hereunto1519 5124 were you called:2564 because3754 Christ5547 also2532 suffered3958 for us, leaving5277 us an example,5261 that you should follow1872 his steps:2487

22 Who3739 did4160 no3756 sin,266 neither3761 was guile1388 found2147 in his mouth:4750

23 Who,3739 when he was reviled,3058 reviled486 not again;486 when he suffered,3958 he threatened546 not; but committed3860 himself to him that judges2919 righteously:1346

24 Who3739 his own848 self846 bore399 our sins266 in his own body4983 on1909 the tree,3586 that we, being dead581 to sins,266 should live2198 to righteousness:1343 by whose3739 stripes3468 you were healed.2390

25 For you were as sheep4263 going4105 astray;4105 but are now3568 returned1994 to the Shepherd4166 and Bishop1985 of your5216 souls.5590

Chapter 2

1 THEREFORE lay aside all malice and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and evil accusations,

2 And become like newborn babes, and long for the word, as for pure and spiritual milk, that you may grow to salvation by it:

3 If so be you have tasted and found out that the LORD is good.

4 The one to whom you are coming is the living stone, whom men have rejected, and yet he is chosen and precious with God;

5 You also, as living stones, build up yourselves and become spiritual temples and holy priests to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

6 For as it is said in the scriptures, Behold, I lay in Sion, a chief corner stone, approved, precious: and he who believes on him shall not be ashamed.

7 It is to you who believe, therefore, that this honour is given; but to those who are disobedient, he is a stumbling stone and a stone of trouble.

8 And they stumble over it because they are disobedient to the word for which they were appointed.

9 But you are a chosen people; ministers to the kingdom, a holy people, a congregation redeemed to proclaim the glories of him who has called you out of darkness to his marvelous light:

10 You, who in the past were not considered a people, but who are now the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but who now have mercy poured out upon you.

11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from carnal desires, which war against the soul;

12 And let your conduct be good before all men, so that those who speak evil words against you, may see your good works and glorify God at the day of trial.

13 Submit yourselves to all human authority for God's sake: whether it be to kings, because of their power,

14 Or to judges because from them officers are sent for the punishment of offenders, and to bestow honour on those who do good.

15 For such is the will of God, that by your good works you may silence the mouth of foolish men, who know not God.

16 Act as free men, and not as men who use their liberty as a cloak for their maliciousness; but as the servants of God.

17 Honour all men. Love your brethren. Fear God. Honour the king.

18 And the servants among you, let them be submissive to their masters with due respect, not only to those who are good and gentle, but also to those who are severe and difficult.

19 For such men have favor before God; because of a good conscience they endure sorrows which come upon them unjustly.

20 What praise have they who endure suffering because of their faults? But when you do good, and are made to suffer, and you take it patiently, then your glory is greater with God.

21 For to this purpose you were called: because Christ also died for us, leaving us an example, that we should follow in his footsteps.

22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:

23 Who, wen he was reviled, he did not revile again: when he suffered he did not threaten, but committed his cause to him who judges righteously:

24 And he bore all our sins, and lifted them with his body on the cross, that we being dead to sin, should live through his righteousness: and by his wounds you were healed.

25 For you had gone astray like sheep, but you have now returned to the Shepherd and the Guardian of your souls.

10 You, who in the past were not considered a people, but who are now the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but who now have mercy poured out upon you.

11 Dearly beloved,27 I beseech3870 you as strangers3941 and pilgrims,3927 abstain567 from fleshly4559 lusts,1939 which3748 war4754 against2596 the soul;5590

19 For this5124 is thank worthy,5485 if1487 a man5100 for conscience4893 toward God2316 endure5297 grief,3077 suffering3958 wrongfully.95

19 For such men have favor before God; because of a good conscience they endure sorrows which come upon them unjustly.

20 For what4169 glory2811 is it, if,1487 when you be buffeted2852 for your faults,264 you shall take it patiently?5278 but if,1487 when you do15 well,15 and suffer3958 for it, you take it patiently,5278 this5124 is acceptable5485 with God.2316

20 What praise have they who endure suffering because of their faults? But when you do good, and are made to suffer, and you take it patiently, then your glory is greater with God.

21 For even hereunto1519 5124 were you called:2564 because3754 Christ5547 also2532 suffered3958 for us, leaving5277 us an example,5261 that you should follow1872 his steps:2487

21 For to this purpose you were called: because Christ also died for us, leaving us an example, that we should follow in his footsteps.

22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:

23 Who,3739 when he was reviled,3058 reviled486 not again;486 when he suffered,3958 he threatened546 not; but committed3860 himself to him that judges2919 righteously:1346

23 Who, wen he was reviled, he did not revile again: when he suffered he did not threaten, but committed his cause to him who judges righteously:

24 Who3739 his own848 self846 bore399 our sins266 in his own body4983 on1909 the tree,3586 that we, being dead581 to sins,266 should live2198 to righteousness:1343 by whose3739 stripes3468 you were healed.2390

24 And he bore all our sins, and lifted them with his body on the cross, that we being dead to sin, should live through his righteousness: and by his wounds you were healed.

25 For you were as sheep4263 going4105 astray;4105 but are now3568 returned1994 to the Shepherd4166 and Bishop1985 of your5216 souls.5590

25 For you had gone astray like sheep, but you have now returned to the Shepherd and the Guardian of your souls.
