1 Peter 4

1 Christ, then, having suffered for us in [the] flesh, do ye also arm yourselves with the same mind; for he that has suffered in [the] flesh has done with sin, 2 no longer to live the rest of [his] time in [the] flesh to men's lusts, but to ^{▼▼4.2 Elohim}God's will. 3 For the time past [is] sufficient [for us] to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, walking in lasciviousness, lusts, wine-drinking, revels, drinkings, and unhallowed idolatries. 4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with [them] to the same sink of corruption, speaking injuriously [of you]; 5 who shall render account to him who is ready to judge [the] living and [the] dead. 6 For to this [end] were the glad tidings preached to [the] dead also, that they might be judged, as regards men, after [the] flesh, but live, as regards ^{▼▼4.6 Elohim}God, after [the] Spirit. 7 But the end of all things is drawn nigh: be sober therefore, and be watchful unto prayers; 8 but before all things having fervent love among yourselves, because love covers a multitude of sins; 9 hospitable one to another, without murmuring; 10 each according as he has received a gift, ministering it to one another, as good stewards of [the] various grace of ^{▼▼4.10 Elohim}God. 11 If any one speak — as oracles of ^{▼▼4.11 Elohim}God; if any one minister — as of strength which ^{▼▼4.11 Elohim}God supplies; that ^{▼▼4.11 Elohim}God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the might for the ages of ages. Amen. 12 Beloved, take not [as] strange the fire [of persecution] which has taken place amongst you for [your] trial, as if a strange thing was happening to you; 13 but as ye have share in the sufferings of Christ, rejoice, that in the revelation of his glory also ye may rejoice with exultation. 14 If ye are reproached in [the] name of Christ, blessed [are ye]; for the [Spirit] of glory and the Spirit of ^{▼▼4.14 Elohim}God rests upon you: [on their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.] 15 Let none of you suffer indeed as murderer, or thief, or evildoer, or as overseer of other people's matters; 16 but if as a christian, let him not be ashamed, but glorify ^{▼▼4.16 Elohim}God in this name. 17 For the time of having the judgment begin from the house of ^{▼▼4.17 Elohim}God [is come]; but if first from us, what [shall be] the end of those who obey not the glad tidings of ^{▼▼4.17 Elohim}God? 18 And if the righteous is difficultly saved, where shall the impious and [the] sinner appear? 19 Wherefore also let them who suffer according to the will of ^{▼▼4.19 Elohim}God commit their souls in well-doing to a faithful Creator.
