2As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:G5613G738G1025G1971G97G1051G3050G2443G837G1722G846
3If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.G1512G1089G3754G2962G5543
4To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,G4314G3739G4334G2198G3037G593G3303G5259G444G1161G1588G3844G2316G1784
5Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.G846G2532G5613G2198G3037G3618G4152G3624G40G2406G399G4152G2378G2144G2316G1223G2424G5547
6Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.G1352G2532G4023G1722G1124G2400G5087G1722G4622G204G3037G1588G1784G2532G4100G1909G846G2617G3364G2617

8And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.G2532G3037G4348G2532G4073G4625G3739G4350G3056G544G1519G3739G2532G5087

10Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.G3588G4218G3756G2992G1161G3568G2992G2316G3588G1653G3756G1653G1161G3568G1653
11Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;G27G3870G5613G3941G2532G3927G567G4559G1939G3748G4754G2596G5590
12Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.G2192G5216G391G2570G1722G1484G2443G1722G3739G2635G5216G5613G2555G1392G1537G2570G2041G2029G1392G2316G1722G2250G1984
13Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;G3767G5293G3956G2937G442G1223G2962G1535G935G5613G5242
14Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.G1535G2232G5613G3992G1223G846G1519G3303G1557G2555G1161G1868G17
15For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:G3754G3779G2076G2307G2316G15G5392G56G878G444
16As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.G5613G1658G2532G3361G2192G1657G5613G1942G2549G235G5613G1401G2316
17Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.G5091G3956G25G81G5399G2316G5091G935
18Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.G3610G5293G1203G1722G3956G5401G3756G3440G18G2532G1933G235G2532G4646
19For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.G1063G5124G5485G1487G5100G1223G4893G2316G5297G3077G3958G95
20For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.G1063G4169G2811G1487G2532G2852G264G5278G235G1487G15G2532G3958G5278G5124G5485G3844G2316
21For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:G1063G1519G5124G2564G3754G5547G2532G3958G5228G2257G5277G2254G5261G2443G1872G846G2487
22Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:G3739G4160G3756G266G3761G1388G2147G1722G846G4750
23Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:G3739G3058G486G3756G486G3958G546G3756G1161G3860G2919G1346
24Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.G3739G846G399G2257G266G1722G846G4983G1909G3586G2443G2198G581G266G2198G1343G3739G846G3468G2390
25For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.G1063G2258G5613G4263G4105G235G1994G3568G1994G1909G4166G2532G1985G5216G5590
