| 1st-Peter 1:1 | Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers dispersed through Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, elect, | Peter, an Apostle of Jesus Christ: To God's own people scattered over the earth, who are living as foreigners in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Roman Asia, and Bithynia, | Peter, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, to the saints who are living in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, |
| 1st-Peter 1:2 | According to the foreknowledge of God the Father, unto the sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you and peace be multiplied. | chosen in accordance with the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, with a view to their obedience and to their being sprinkled with the blood of Jesus Christ. May more and more grace and peace be granted to you. | Who, through the purpose of God, have been made holy by the Spirit, disciples of Jesus, made clean by his blood: May you have grace and peace in full measure. |
| 1st-Peter 1:3 | Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy hath regenerated us unto a lively hope, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, | Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who in His great mercy has begotten us anew to an ever-living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, | Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who through his great mercy has given us a new birth and a living hope by the coming again of Jesus Christ from the dead, |
| 1st-Peter 1:4 | Unto an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that can not fade, reserved in heaven for you, | to an inheritance imperishable, undefiled and unfading, which has been reserved in Heaven for you, | And a heritage fair, holy and for ever new, waiting in heaven for you, |
| 1st-Peter 1:5 | Who, by the power of God, are kept by faith unto salvation, ready to be revealed in the last time. | whom God in His power is guarding through faith for a salvation that even now stands ready for unveiling at the End of the Age. | Who, by the power of God are kept, through faith, for that salvation, which will be seen at the last day. |
| 1st-Peter 1:6 | Wherein you shall greatly rejoice, if now you must be for a little time made sorrowful in divers temptations: | Rejoice triumphantly in the prospect of this, even if now, for a short time, you are compelled to sorrow amid various trials. | You have cause for great joy in this, though it may have been necessary for you to be troubled for a little time, being tested in all sorts of ways, |
| 1st-Peter 1:7 | That the trial of your faith (much more precious than gold which is tried by the fire) may be found unto praise and glory and honour at the appearing of Jesus Christ: | The sorrow comes in order that the testing of your faith being more precious than that of gold, which perishes and yet is proved by fire may be found to result in praise and glory and honour at the re-appearing of Jesus Christ. | So that the true metal of your faith, being of much greater value than gold (which, though it comes to an end, is tested by fire), may come to light in praise and glory and honour, at the revelation of Jesus Christ: |
| 1st-Peter 1:8 | Whom having not seen, you love: in whom also now, though you see him not, you believe: and believing shall rejoice with joy unspeakable and glorified; | Him you love, though your eyes have never looked on Him. In Him, though at present you cannot see Him, you nevertheless trust, and triumph with a joy which is unspeakable and is crowned with glory, | To whom your love is given, though you have not seen him; and the faith which you have in him, though you do not see him now, gives you joy greater than words and full of glory: |
| 1st-Peter 1:9 | Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. | while you are securing as the outcome of your faith the salvation of your souls. | For so you have the true end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. |
| 1st-Peter 1:10 | Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and diligently searched, who prophesied of the grace to come in you. | There were Prophets who earnestly inquired about that salvation, and closely searched into it even those who spoke beforehand of the grace which was to come to you. | For the prophets who gave the news of the grace which would come to you, made search with all care for knowledge of this salvation; |
| 1st-Peter 1:11 | Searching what or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ in them did signify: when it foretold those sufferings that are in Christ, and the glories that should follow: | They were eager to know the time which the Spirit of Christ within them kept indicating, or the characteristics of that time, when they solemnly made known beforehand the sufferings that were to come upon Christ and the glories which would follow. | Attempting to see what sort of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them was pointing to, when it gave witness to the pains which Christ would undergo and the glories which would come after them. |
| 1st-Peter 1:12 | To whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you they ministered those things which are now declared to you by them that have preached the gospel to you, the Holy Ghost being sent down from heaven, on whom the angels desire to look. | To them it was revealed that they were serving not themselves but you, when they foretold the very things which have now been openly declared to you by those who, having been taught by the Holy Spirit which had been sent from Heaven, brought you the Good News. Angels long to stoop and look into these things. | And it was made clear to those prophets that they were God's servants not for themselves but for you, to give you word of the things which have now come to your ears from the preachers of the good news through the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; things which even angels have a desire to see. |
| 1st-Peter 1:13 | Wherefore having the loins of your mind girt up, being sober, trust perfectly in the grace which is offered you in the revelation of Jesus Christ, | Therefore gird up your minds and fix your hopes calmly and unfalteringly upon the boon that is soon to be yours, at the re-appearing of Jesus Christ. | So make your minds ready, and keep on the watch, hoping with all your power for the grace which is to come to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; |
| 1st-Peter 1:14 | As children of obedience, not fashioned according to the former desires of your ignorance: | And, since you delight in obedience, do not shape your lives by the cravings which used to dominate you in the time of your ignorance, | Like children ruled by God, do not go back to the old desires of the time when you were without knowledge: |
| 1st-Peter 1:15 | But according to him that hath called you, who is holy, be you also in all manner of conversation holy: | but in imitation of the holy One who has called you you also must be holy in all your habits of life. | But be holy in every detail of your lives, as he, whose servants you are, is holy; |
| 1st-Peter 1:16 | Because it is written: You shall be holy, for I am holy. | Because it stands written, "You are to be holy, because I am holy." | Because it has been said in the Writings, You are to be holy, for I am holy. |
| 1st-Peter 1:17 | And if you invoke as Father him who, without respect of persons, judgeth according to every one's work: converse in fear during the time of your sojourning here. | And if you address as your Father Him who judges impartially in accordance with each man's actions, then spend in fear the time of your stay here on earth, | And if you give the name of Father to him who, judging every man by his acts, has no respect for a man's position, then go in fear while you are on this earth: |
| 1st-Peter 1:18 | Knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things as gold or silver, from your vain conversation of the tradition of your fathers: | knowing, as you do, that it was not with a ransom of perishable wealth, such as silver or gold, that you were set free from your frivolous habits of life which had been handed down to you from your forefathers, | Being conscious that you have been made free from that foolish way of life which was your heritage from your fathers, not through a payment of things like silver or gold which come to destruction, |
| 1st-Peter 1:19 | But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb unspotted and undefiled, | but with the precious blood of Christ as of an unblemished and spotless lamb. | But through holy blood, like that of a clean and unmarked lamb, even the blood of Christ: |
| 1st-Peter 1:20 | Foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but manifested in the last times for you, | He was pre-destined indeed to this work, even before the creation of the world, but has been plainly manifested in these last days for the sake of you who, through Him, | Who was marked out by God before the making of the world, but was caused to be seen in these last times for you, |
| 1st-Peter 1:21 | Who through him are faithful in God, who raised him up from the dead, and hath given him glory, that your faith and hope might be in God. | are faithful to God, who raised Him from among the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are resting upon God. | Who through him have faith in God who took him up again from the dead into glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God. |
| 1st-Peter 1:22 | Purifying your souls in the obedience of charity, with a brotherly love, from a sincere heart love one another earnestly: | Now that, through your obedience to the truth, you have purified your souls for cherishing sincere brotherly love, you must love another heartily and fervently. | And as you have made your souls clean, being ruled by what is true, and loving one another without deceit, see that your love is warm and from the heart: |
| 1st-Peter 1:23 | Being born again not of corruptible seed, but incorruptible, by the word of God who liveth and remaineth for ever. | For you have been begotten again by God's ever-living and enduring word from a germ not of perishable, but of imperishable life. | Because you have had a new birth, not from the seed of man, but from eternal seed, through the word of a living and unchanging God. |
| 1st-Peter 1:24 | For all flesh is as grass; and all the glory thereof as the flower of grass. The grass is withered, and the flower thereof is fallen away. | "All mankind resemble the herbage, and all their beauty is like its flowers. The herbage dries up, and its flowers drop off; | For it is said, All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower of the grass. The grass becomes dry and the flower dead: |
| 1st-Peter 1:25 | But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel hath been preached unto you. | But the word of the Lord remains for ever." And that means the Message which has been proclaimed among you in the Good News. | But the word of the Lord is eternal. And this is the word of the good news which was given to you. |
