< 1 Peter 4 >

1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
If then the Meshiha hath suffered for you in the flesh, be you also armed in it with the same mind; for every one who dieth in his body hath ceased from all sins,
2 That he no longer should live the rest of [his] time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
that henceforth to the lusts of men he should not live, what time he is in the body, but to the will of Aloha.
3 For the time past of [our] life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
For the time which hath passed sufficeth to have served the will of the Gentiles in indulgence, in drunkenness, in vileness, in revellings, and in the service of demons.
4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with [them] to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of [you]:
And, behold, now they wonder and blaspheme at you because you riot not with them in that former indulgence;
5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
they who shall give account to Aloha, who will judge the dead and the living.
6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
For on this account the dead also have been evangelized; that they might be judged as men in the flesh, and live with Aloha in the Spirit.
7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.
BUT the end of all cometh; therefore be sober, and watch unto prayer.
8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
And before every thing have ardent love for one another; for love covereth a multitude of sins.
9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
And be lovers of guests without murmuring.
10 As every man hath received the gift, [even so] minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
And every man of you the gift which he hath received from Aloha, let him minister thereof unto his neighbours as good stewards of the various grace of Aloha.
11 If any man speak, [let him speak] as the oracles of God; if any man minister, [let him do it] as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Whoever shall speak, as the word of Aloha let him speak and whoever ministereth, (he shall minister) as from the power which Aloha giveth to him, that in every thing which you do Aloha may be glorified through Jeshu Meshiha, whose are the glory and honour to the age of ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
My beloved, be not amazed at the temptations which you have, as that something strange happeneth to you, because for your probation they have been;
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
but rejoice that you are partakers of the sufferings of the Meshiha, that so also at the revelation of his glory you may rejoice and exult.
14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy [are ye]; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
And if you be reviled for the sake of the name of the Meshiha, you are happy; for the Spirit of the glory of Aloha resteth upon you.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or [as] a thief, or [as] an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters.
Only, let no man of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as a doer of evils.
16 Yet if [any man suffer] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
But if he suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify Aloha in that very name.
17 For the time [is come] that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if [it] first [begin] at us, what shall the end [be] of them that obey not the gospel of God?
For the time is, that judgment shall begin from the house of Aloha. But if from us it begin, what is the end (to be) of them who obey not the gospel of Aloha?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
And if the righteous scarcely be saved, the wicked and the sinner where shall he be found?
19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls [to him] in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
Wherefore, let them who suffer according to the will of Aloha commend to him their souls in good works, as unto the Faithful Creator.
