1 Peter 4

1Christ, then, having suffered for us in the flesh, ye also with the same mind arm yourselves, because he who did suffer in the flesh hath done with sin,

1Forasmuch then as Christ suffered in the flesh, arm ye yourselves also with the same mind; for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;

1Christ, 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,

2no more in the desires of men, but in the will of God, to live the rest of the time in the flesh;

2that ye no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

2no longer to live the rest of [his] time in [the] flesh to men's lusts, but toGod's will.

3for sufficient to us <FI>is<Fi> the past time of life the will of the nations to have wrought, having walked in lasciviousnesses, desires, excesses of wines, revellings, drinking-bouts, and unlawful idolatries,

3For the time past may suffice to have wrought the desire of the Gentiles, and to have walked in lasciviousness, lusts, winebibbings, revellings, carousings, and abominable idolatries:

3For 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.

4in which they think it strange--your not running with them to the same excess of dissoluteness, speaking evil,

4wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them into the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:

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

5who shall give an account to Him who is ready to judge living and dead,

5who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead.

5who shall render account to him who is ready to judge [the] living and [the] dead.

6for for this also to dead men was good news proclaimed, that they may be judged, indeed, according to men in the flesh, and may live according to God in the spirit.

6For unto this end was the gospel preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

6For 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 regardsGod, after [the] Spirit.

7And of all things the end hath come nigh; be sober-minded, then, and watch unto the prayers,

7But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore of sound mind, and be sober unto prayer:

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

8and, before all things, to one another having the earnest love, because the love shall cover a multitude of sins;

8above all things being fervent in your love among yourselves; for love covereth a multitude of sins:

8but before all things having fervent love among yourselves, because love covers a multitude of sins;

9hospitable to one another, without murmuring;

9using hospitality one to another without murmuring:

9hospitable one to another, without murmuring;

10each, according as he received a gift, to one another ministering it, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God;

10according as each hath received a gift, ministering it among yourselves, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God;

10each according as he has received a gift, ministering it to one another, as good stewards of [the] various grace ofGod.

11if any one doth speak--`as oracles of God;' if any one doth minister--`as of the ability which God doth supply;' that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the power--to the ages of the ages. Amen.

11if any man speaketh, speaking as it were oracles of God; if any man ministereth, ministering as of the strength which God supplieth: that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, whose is the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

11If any one speak — as oracles ofGod; if any one minister — as of strength whichGod supplies; thatGod in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the might for the ages of ages. Amen.

12Beloved, think it not strange at the fiery suffering among you that is coming to try you, as if a strange thing were happening to you,

12Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial among you, which cometh upon you to prove you, as though a strange thing happened unto you:

12Beloved, 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;

13but, according as ye have fellowship with the sufferings of the Christ, rejoice ye, that also in the revelation of his glory ye may rejoice--exulting;

13but insomuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory also ye may rejoice with exceeding joy.

13but as ye have share in the sufferings of Christ, rejoice, that in the revelation of his glory also ye may rejoice with exultation.

14if ye be reproached in the name of Christ--happy <FI>are ye<Fi> , because the Spirit of glory and of God upon you doth rest; in regard, indeed, to them, he is evil-spoken of, and in regard to you, he is glorified;

14If ye are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are ye; because the Spirit of glory and the Spirit of God resteth upon you.

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

15for let none of you suffer as a murderer, or thief, or evil-doer, or as an inspector into other men's matters;

15For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil-doer, or as a meddler in other men’s matters:

15Let none of you suffer indeed as murderer, or thief, or evildoer, or as overseer of other people's matters;

16and if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; and let him glorify God in this respect;

16but if a man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this name.

16but if as a christian, let him not be ashamed, but glorifyGod in this name.

17because it is the time of the beginning of the judgment from the house of God, and if first from us, what the end of those disobedient to the good news of God?

17For the time is come for judgment to begin at the house of God: and if it begin first at us, what shall be the end of them that obey not the gospel of God?

17For the time of having the judgment begin from the house ofGod [is come]; but if first from us, what [shall be] the end of those who obey not the glad tidings ofGod?

18And if the righteous man is scarcely saved, the ungodly and sinner--where shall he appear?

18And if the righteous is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear?

18And if the righteous is difficultly saved, where shall the impious and [the] sinner appear?

19so that also those suffering according to the will of god, as to a stedfast Creator, let them commit their own souls in good doing.

19Wherefore let them also that suffer according to the will of God commit their souls in well-doing unto a faithful Creator.

19Wherefore also let them who suffer according to the will ofGod commit their souls in well-doing to a faithful Creator.
