| 1st-Peter 1:11 | 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. | searching for what or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ, which was in them, pointed to, when he testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow them. |
| 1st-Peter 1:12 | 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.

| 1st-Peter 1:14 | 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: | as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance, |
| 1st-Peter 1:15 | 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; | but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior; |

| 1st-Peter 1:18 | 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, | knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers, |
| 1st-Peter 1:19 | 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: | but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, the blood of Christ; |

| 1st-Peter 1:21 | 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. | who through him are believers in God, that raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God. |

| 1st-Peter 1:23 | 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. | having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever. |
| 1st-Peter 1:24 | "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: | For, "All flesh is like grass, And all of man's glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls; |
| 1st-Peter 1:25 | 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. | But the Lord's word endures forever." This is the word of good news which was preached to you. |
