< 1 Peter 2 >

1 Having put aside therefore all malice and all deceit and (hypocrisies *NK+O) and envies and all evil speakings 2 like newborn babies reasonable pure milk do crave so that by it you may grow up (in respect to salvation, *NO) 3 (if *N+kO) you have tasted that [is] good the Lord. 4 To whom coming a stone living, by men indeed rejected in the sight of however God chosen [and] precious, 5 also you yourselves as stones living are being built up as a house spiritual (into *no) a priesthood holy to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 (Therefore *N+kO) it is contained in Scripture: Behold I lay in Zion a stone cornerstone a chosen precious, and the [one] who is believing on Him certainly not may be put to shame. 7 To you therefore [is] the preciousness of those believing; ([for those] disbelieving *N+KO) however ([the] stone *N+kO) which rejected those building, this has become into [the] head of [the] corner 8 and A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense, [They] stumble at on the word being disobedient, to which also they were appointed; 9 You yourselves however [are] a race chosen, a royal priesthood, a nation holy, a people for [His] possession, so that the excellencies you may proclaim of the [One] out of darkness you having called to the marvelous of Him light; 10 who once [were] not a people, now however [the] people of God, those [who] not received mercy, now however having received mercy. 11 Beloved, I exhort [you] as aliens and sojourners to abstain from fleshly desires, which war against the soul; 12 the conduct of you among the Gentiles keeping honorable, so that wherein which they speak against you as evildoers, through the good deeds (having witnessed *N+kO) they may glorify God in [the] day of visitation. 13 do be subjected (therefore *K) to every human institution for the sake of the Lord; whether to [the] king as being supreme; 14 or to governors as through him being sent for vengeance (indeed *k) to evildoers, praise however to well-doers; 15 because this is the will of God doing good to put to silence the of foolish men ignorance; 16 as free and not as a cover-up having for evil the freedom, but as of God servants. 17 Everyone do honor, The brotherhood (do love, *NK+o) God do fear, the king do honor. 18 you who [are] Servants be subject with all fear to masters, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the unreasonable. 19 This for [is] acceptable, if for sake of conscience toward God endures anyone griefs suffering unjustly. 20 What kind of for credit [is it] if sinning and being struck you will endure? But if doing good and suffering you will endure, this [is] commendable before God. 21 To this hereunto for you have been called, because also Christ suffered for (for you, *N+KO) you leaving an example that you may follow after the steps of Him: 22 Who sin not committed, neither was found trickery in the mouth of Him, 23 Who being reviled not was not reviling back suffering not was threatening He was delivering [Himself] however to the [One] judging justly; 24 Who the sins of us Himself bore in the body of Him on the tree so that to sins having been dead to righteousness we may live; Of whom by the wounds (of him *k) you have been healed. 25 You were for like sheep (going astray *N+kO) but you have returned now to the Shepherd and Overseer of the souls of you.
