Revised Young's Literal Translation
New Testament
| 1:1 | Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the choice sojourners of the dispersion of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, |
| 1:2 | according to a foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, to obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied! |
| 1:3 | Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to the abundance of His kindness did beget us again to a living hope, through the rising again of Jesus Christ out of the dead, |
| 1:4 | to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in the heavens for you, |
| 1:5 | who, in the power of God are being guarded, through faith, unto salvation, ready to be revealed in the last time, |
| 1:6 | in which you are glad, a little now, if it be necessary, being made to sorrow in manifold trials, |
| 1:7 | that the proof of your faith -- much more precious than of gold that is perishing, and through fire being approved -- may be found to praise, and honour, and glory, in the revelation of Jesus Christ, |
| 1:8 | whom, not having seen, you love, in whom, now not seeing and believing, you are glad with joy unspeakable and glorified, |
| 1:9 | receiving the end of your faith -- salvation of souls; |
| 1:10 | concerning which salvation seek out and search out did prophets who concerning the grace toward you did prophecy, |
| 1:11 | searching in regard to what or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ that was in them was manifesting, testifying beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glory after these, |
| 1:12 | to whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to us they were ministering these, which now were told to you (through those who did proclaim good news to you,) in the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, to which things messengers do desire to bend looking. |
| 1:13 | Therefore having girded up the loins of your mind, being sober, hope perfectly upon the grace that is being brought to you in the revelation of Jesus Christ, |
| 1:14 | as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves to the former desires in your ignorance, |
| 1:15 | but according as He who did call you is holy, you also, become holy in all behaviour, |
| 1:16 | because it has been written, 'Become you holy, because I am holy;' |
| 1:17 | and if on the Father you do call, who without acceptance of persons is judging according to the work of each, in fear the time of your sojourn pass you, |
| 1:18 | having known that, not with corruptible things -- silver or gold -- were you redeemed from your foolish behaviour delivered by fathers, |
| 1:19 | but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and unspotted -- Christ's -- |
| 1:20 | foreknown, indeed, before the foundation of the world, and manifested in the last times because of you, |
| 1:21 | who through him do believe in God, who did raise out of the dead, and glory to him did give, so that your faith and hope may be in God. |
| 1:22 | Your souls having purified in the obedience of the truth through the Spirit to brotherly love unfeigned, out of a pure heart one another love you earnestly, |
| 1:23 | being begotten again, not out of seed corruptible, but incorruptible, through a word of God -- living and remaining -- to the age; |
| 1:24 | because all flesh is as grass, and all glory of man as flower of grass; wither did the grass, and the flower of it fell away, |
| 1:25 | and the saying of the Lord does remain -- to the age; and this is the saying that was proclaimed good news to you. |
