1. Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the elect sojourners of the dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia.
2. According to God the Father's foreknowledge, in the Spirit's sanctification, for obedience and sprinkling of Jesus Christ's blood: grace to you and peace be multiplied.
3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
4. to an imperishable and spotless and unfading inheritance preserved in heaven for you
5. who are guarded by God's power through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last season.
6. In which you greatly rejoice, though for a short time now, if necessary, you have been grieved in various trials.
7. so that the genuineness of your faith, more precious than gold that perishes though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
8. You love him whom you have not seen, and believing in him though you do not see him now, you rejoice with inexpressible and glorious joy.
9. receiving the fulfillment of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
10. The prophets who prophesied about the grace for you inquired about this salvation and searched it out.
11. They inquired what person or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating, as it testified beforehand to Christ's sufferings and the glories that would follow them.
12. It was revealed to them that they ministered these things not to themselves but to you, which now have been reported to you through those who proclaimed good news to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things angels desire to peer into.
13. Therefore, gird up the loins of your mind, stay sober, and hope completely on the grace being brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
14. As obedient children, do not conform yourselves to the former lusts in your ignorance.
15. But as the one who called you is holy, you yourselves be holy also in all your conduct.
16. because it has been written that you shall be holy, for I am holy.
17. And if you call on the Father, who judges impartially according to each one's work, live out the time of your sojourning in fear.
18. knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, silver or gold, from your vain ancestral way of life.
19. but with Christ's precious blood, like that of a faultless and spotless lamb.
20. Foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but manifested at the end of the times for you.
21. Those who through him believe in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.
22. Having purified your souls in obedience to the truth for sincere brotherly love, love one another from the heart fervently.
23. having been regenerated not from perishable seed but from imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
24. Because all flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower of grass; the grass dries up, and the flower falls.
25. But the Lord's word remains forever. This is the word preached to you.
