1. Wherefore[G3767] laying aside[G659] all[G3956] malice,[G2549] and[G2532] all[G3956] guile,[G1388] and[G2532] hypocrisies,[G5272] and[G2532] envies,[G5355] and[G2532] all[G3956] evil speakings,[G2636]

2. As[G5613] newborn[G738] babes,[G1025] desire[G1971] the[G3588] sincere[G97] milk[G1051] of the word,[G3050] that[G2443] ye may grow[G837] thereby:[G1722] [G846]

3. If so be[G1512] ye have tasted[G1089] that[G3754] the[G3588] Lord[G2962] is gracious.[G5543]

4. To[G4314] whom[G3739] coming,[G4334] as unto a living[G2198] stone,[G3037] disallowed[G593] indeed[G3303] of[G5259] men,[G444] but[G1161] chosen[G1588] of[G3844] God,[G2316] and precious,[G1784]

5. Ye[G846] also,[G2532] as[G5613] lively[G2198] stones,[G3037] are built up[G3618] a spiritual[G4152] house,[G3624] an holy[G40] priesthood,[G2406] to offer up[G399] spiritual[G4152] sacrifices,[G2378] acceptable[G2144] to God[G2316] by[G1223] Jesus[G2424] Christ.[G5547]

6. Wherefore[G1352] also[G2532] it is contained[G4023] in[G1722] the[G3588] scripture,[G1124] Behold,[G2400] I lay[G5087] in[G1722] Zion[G4622] a chief corner stone,[G204] [G3037] elect,[G1588] precious:[G1784] and[G2532] he that believeth[G4100] on[G1909] him[G846] shall not[G3364] be confounded.[G2617]

7. Unto you[G5213] therefore[G3767] which believe[G4100] he is precious:[G5092] but[G1161] unto them which be disobedient,[G544] the stone[G3037] which[G3739] the[G3588] builders[G3618] disallowed,[G593] the same[G3778] is made[G1096] the[G1519] head[G2776] of the corner,[G1137]

8. And[G2532] a stone[G3037] of stumbling,[G4348] and[G2532] a rock[G4073] of offense,[G4625] even to them which[G3739] stumble[G4350] at the[G3588] word,[G3056] being disobedient:[G544] whereunto[G1519] [G3739] also[G2532] they were appointed.[G5087]

9. But[G1161] ye[G5210] are a chosen[G1588] generation,[G1085] a royal[G934] priesthood,[G2406] a holy[G40] nation,[G1484] a peculiar[G1519] [G4047] people;[G2992] that[G3704] ye should show forth[G1804] the[G3588] praises[G703] of him[G3588] who hath called[G2564] you[G5209] out of[G1537] darkness[G4655] into[G1519] his[G846] marvelous[G2298] light: [G5457]

10. Which[G3588] in time past[G4218] were not[G3756] a people,[G2992] but[G1161] are now[G3568] the people[G2992] of God:[G2316] which had not obtained mercy,[G1653] [G3756] but[G1161] now[G3568] have obtained mercy.[G1653]

11. Dearly beloved,[G27] I beseech[G3870] you as[G5613] strangers[G3941] and[G2532] pilgrims,[G3927] abstain[G567] from fleshly[G4559] lusts,[G1939] which[G3748] war[G4754] against[G2596] the[G3588] soul;[G5590]

12. Having[G2192] your[G5216] conversation[G391] honest[G2570] among[G1722] the[G3588] Gentiles:[G1484] that,[G2443] whereas[G1722] [G3739] they speak against[G2635] you[G5216] as[G5613] evildoers,[G2555] they may by[G1537] your good[G2570] works,[G2041] which they shall behold,[G2029] glorify[G1392] God[G2316] in[G1722] the day[G2250] of visitation.[G1984]

13. Submit yourselves[G5293] to[G3767] every[G3956] ordinance[G2937] of man[G442] for the Lord's sake:[G1223] [G3588] [G2962] whether[G1535] it be to the king,[G935] as[G5613] supreme;[G5242]

14. Or[G1535] unto governors,[G2232] as[G5613] unto them that are sent[G3992] by[G1223] him[G846] for[G1519] the punishment[G1557] of[G3303] evildoers,[G2555] and[G1161] for the praise[G1868] of them that do well.[G17]

15. For[G3754] so[G3779] is[G2076] the[G3588] will[G2307] of God,[G2316] that with well doing[G15] ye may put to silence[G5392] the[G3588] ignorance[G56] of foolish[G878] men: [G444]

16. As[G5613] free,[G1658] and[G2532] not[G3361] using[G2192] your liberty[G1657] for[G5613] a cloak[G1942] of maliciousness,[G2549] but[G235] as[G5613] the servants[G1401] of God.[G2316]

17. Honor[G5091] all[G3956] men. Love[G25] the[G3588] brotherhood.[G81] Fear[G5399] God.[G2316] Honor[G5091] the[G3588] king.[G935]

18. Servants,[G3610] be subject to[G5293] your masters[G1203] with[G1722] all[G3956] fear;[G5401] not[G3756] only[G3440] to the[G3588] good[G18] and[G2532] gentle,[G1933] but[G235] also[G2532] to the[G3588] froward.[G4646]

19. For[G1063] this[G5124] is thankworthy,[G5485] if[G1487] a man[G5100] for[G1223] conscience[G4893] toward God[G2316] endure[G5297] grief,[G3077] suffering[G3958] wrongfully.[G95]

20. For[G1063] what[G4169] glory[G2811] is it, if,[G1487] when ye be buffeted[G2852] [G2532] for your faults,[G264] ye shall take it patiently?[G5278] but[G235] if,[G1487] when ye do well,[G15] and[G2532] suffer[G3958] for it, ye take it patiently,[G5278] this[G5124] is acceptable[G5485] with[G3844] God.[G2316]

21. For[G1063] even hereunto[G1519] [G5124] were ye called:[G2564] because[G3754] Christ[G5547] also[G2532] suffered[G3958] for[G5228] us,[G2257] leaving[G5277] us[G2254] an example,[G5261] that[G2443] ye should follow[G1872] his[G846] steps: [G2487]

22. Who[G3739] did[G4160] no[G3756] sin,[G266] neither[G3761] was guile[G1388] found[G2147] in[G1722] his[G846] mouth: [G4750]

23. Who,[G3739] when he was reviled,[G3058] reviled not again;[G486] [G3756] when he suffered,[G3958] he threatened[G546] not;[G3756] but[G1161] committed[G3860] himself to him that judgeth[G2919] righteously: [G1346]

24. Who[G3739] his own self[G848] bare[G399] our[G2257] sins[G266] in[G1722] his own[G848] body[G4983] on[G1909] the[G3588] tree,[G3586] that[G2443] we, being dead[G581] to sins,[G266] should live[G2198] unto righteousness:[G1343] by whose[G3739] stripes[G3468] ye were healed.[G2390]

25. For[G1063] ye were[G2258] as[G5613] sheep[G4263] going astray;[G4105] but[G235] are now[G3568] returned[G1994] unto[G1909] the[G3588] Shepherd[G4166] and[G2532] Bishop[G1985] of your[G5216] souls.[G5590]
