1Peter 4 DBY — 1Peter 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, DBY — 1Peter 4:1

2 no longer to live the rest of [his] time in [the] flesh to men’s lusts, but to God’s will. DBY — 1Peter 4:2

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. DBY — 1Peter 4:3

4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with [them] to the same sink of corruption, speaking injuriously [of you]; DBY — 1Peter 4:4

5 who shall render account to him who is ready to judge [the] living and [the] dead. DBY — 1Peter 4:5

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 God, after [the] Spirit. DBY — 1Peter 4:6

7 But the end of all things is drawn nigh: be sober therefore, and be watchful unto prayers; DBY — 1Peter 4:7

8 but before all things having fervent love among yourselves, because love covers a multitude of sins; DBY — 1Peter 4:8

9 hospitable one to another, without murmuring; DBY — 1Peter 4:9

10 each according as he has received a gift, ministering it to one another, as good stewards of [the] various grace of God. DBY — 1Peter 4:10

11 If any one speak as oracles of God; if any one minister as of strength which God supplies; that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the might for the ages of ages. Amen. DBY — 1Peter 4:11

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; DBY — 1Peter 4:12

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. DBY — 1Peter 4:13

14 If ye are reproached in [the] name of Christ, blessed [are ye]; for the [Spirit] of glory and the Spirit of God rests upon you: [on their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.] DBY — 1Peter 4:14

15 Let none of you suffer indeed as murderer, or thief, or evildoer, or as overseer of other people’s matters; DBY — 1Peter 4:15

16 but if as a christian, let him not be ashamed, but glorify God in this name. DBY — 1Peter 4:16

17 For the time of having the judgment begin from the house of God [is come]; but if first from us, what [shall be] the end of those who obey not the glad tidings of God? DBY — 1Peter 4:17

18 And if the righteous is difficultly saved, where shall the impious and [the] sinner appear? DBY — 1Peter 4:18

19 Wherefore also let them who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls in well-doing to a faithful Creator. DBY — 1Peter 4:19
