1 Peter 4

1 Forasmuch then as Messiah suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;

Therfor for Crist suffride in fleisch, be ye also armed bi the same thenkynge; for he that suffride in fleisch ceesside fro synnes,

2 that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for human desires, but for the will of God.

that that is left now in fleisch lyue not now to the desiris of men, but to the wille of God.

3 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.

For the time that is passid is ynow to the wille of hethene men to be endid, whiche walkiden in letcheries, and lustis, in myche drinking of wyn, in vnmesurable etyngis, and drynkyngis, and vnleueful worschiping of mawmetis.

4 They think it is strange that you do not run with them into the same flood of debauchery, blaspheming:

In whiche now thei ben astonyed, in which thing thei wondren, for ye rennen not togidere `in to the same confusioun of letcherie, and blasfemen.

5 who will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.

And thei schulen yyue resoun to hym, that is redi to deme the quyke and the deed.

6 For this reason also the gospel 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.

For whi for this thing it is prechid also to deed men, that thei be demed bi men in fleisch, and that thei lyue bi God in spirit.

7 But the end of all things is near. Therefore be serious and disciplined in your prayers.

For the ende of alle thingis schal neiye. Therfor be ye prudent, and wake ye in preyeris;

8 Above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.

bifore alle thingis haue ye charite ech to other in you silf algatis lastynge; for charite couerith the multitude of synnes.

9 Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.

Holde ye hospitalite togidere with out grutching;

10 As each has received a gift, employ it in serving one another, as good managers of the grace of God in its various forms.

ech man as he hath resseyued grace, mynystringe it in to ech othere, as good dispenderis of the manyfold grace of God.

11 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 (the) Messiah, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

If ony man spekith, speke he as the wordis of God; if ony man mynystrith, as of the vertu which God mynystrith; that God be onourid in alle thingis bi Jhesu Crist oure Lord, to whom is glorie and lordschip in to worldis `of worldis. (aiōn g165)

12 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.

Amen. Moost dere brytheren, nyle ye go in pilgrymage in feruour, that is maad to you to temptacioun, as if ony newe thing bifalle to you;

13 But because you are partakers of Messiah's sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy.

but comyne ye with the passiouns of Crist, and haue ye ioye, that also ye be glad, and haue ioye in the reuelacioun of his glorie.

14 If you are insulted for the name of Messiah, 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.

If ye ben dispisid for the name of Crist, ye schulen be blessid; for that that is of the onour, and of the glorie, and of the vertu of God, and the spirit that is his, schal reste on you.

15 For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler.

But no man of you suffre as a mansleere, ethir a theef, ether cursere, ethir a disirere of othere mennus goodis;

16 But if as a "Follower of the Messiah," let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this name.

but if as a cristen man, schame he not, but glorifie he God in this name.

17 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 gospel of God?

For tyme is, that doom bigynne at Goddis hous; and if it bigynne first at vs, what ende schal be of hem, that bileuen not to the gospel?

18 And "If the righteous is delivered with difficulty, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?"

And if a iust man vnnethe schal be sauid, where schulen the vnfeithful man and the synnere appere?

19 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.

Therfor and thei that suffren bi the wille of God, bitaken her soulis in good dedis to the feithful makere of nouyt.
