1 Peter 1:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Greetings from Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ. To God's chosen people who are away from their homes�people scattered all over the areas of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia.
2 God planned long ago to choose you and to make you his holy people, which is the Spirit's work. God wanted you to obey him and to be made clean by the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ. I pray that you will enjoy more and more of God's grace and peace.
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God has great mercy, and because of his mercy he gave us a new life. This new life brings us a living hope through Jesus Christ's resurrection from death.
4 Now we wait to receive the blessings God has for his children. These blessings are kept for you in heaven. They cannot be ruined or be destroyed or lose their beauty.
5 God's power protects you through your faith, and it keeps you safe until your salvation comes. That salvation is ready to be given to you at the end of time.
6 I know the thought of that is exciting, even if you must suffer through different kinds of troubles for a short time now.
7 These troubles test your faith and prove that it is pure. And such faith is worth more than gold. Gold can be proved to be pure by fire, but gold will ruin. When your faith is proven to be pure, the result will be praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ comes.
8 You have not seen Christ, but still you love him. You can't see him now, but you believe in him. You are filled with a wonderful and heavenly joy that cannot be explained.
9 Your faith has a goal, and you are reaching that goal�your salvation.
10 The prophets studied carefully and tried to learn about this salvation. They spoke about the grace that was coming to you.
11 The Spirit of Christ was in those prophets. And the Spirit was telling about the sufferings that would happen to Christ and about the glory that would come after those sufferings. The prophets tried to learn about what the Spirit was showing them�when it would happen and what the world would be like at that time.
12 It was made clear to them that their service was not for themselves. They were serving you when they told about the things you have now heard. You heard them from those who told you the Good News, with the help of the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Even the angels would like very much to know more about these things you were told.
13 So prepare your minds for service. With complete self-control put all your hope in the grace that will be yours when Jesus Christ comes.
14 In the past you did not have the understanding you have now, so you did the evil things you wanted to do. But now you are children of God, so you should obey him and not live the way you did before.
15 Be holy in everything you do, just as God is holy. He is the one who chose you.
16 In the Scriptures God says, "Be holy, because I am holy."
17 You pray to God and call him Father, but he will judge everyone the same way�by what they do. So while you are visiting here on earth, you should live with respect for God.
18 You know that in the past the way you were living was useless. It was a way of life you learned from those who lived before you. But you were saved from that way of living. You were bought, but not with things that ruin like gold or silver.
19 You were bought with the precious blood of Christ's death. He was a pure and perfect sacrificial Lamb.
20 Christ was chosen before the world was made, but he was shown to the world in these last times for you.
21 You believe in God through Christ. God is the one who raised him from death and gave honor to him. So your faith and your hope are in God.
22 You have made yourselves pure by obeying the truth. Now you can have true love for your brothers and sisters. So love each other deeply�with all your heart.
23 You have been born again. This new life did not come from something that dies. It came from something that cannot die. You were born again through God's life-giving message that lasts forever.
24 The Scriptures say, "Our lives are like the grass of spring, and any glory we enjoy is like the beauty of a wildflower. The grass dries up and dies, and the flower falls to the ground.
25 But the word of the Lord lasts forever." And that word is the Good News that was told to you.
1 Peter G4074 , an apostle G652 of Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 to the strangers G3927 scattered throughout G1290 Pontus, G4195 Galatia, G1053 Cappadocia, G2587 Asia, G773 and G2532 Bithynia, G978
2 Elect G1588 according G2596 to the foreknowledge G4268 of God G2316 the Father, G3962 through G1722 sanctification G38 of the Spirit, G4151 unto G1519 obedience G5218 and G2532 sprinkling G4473 of the blood G129 of Jesus G2424 Christ: G5547 Grace G5485 unto you, G5213 and G2532 peace, G1515 be multiplied. G4129
3 Blessed G2128 be the G3588 God G2316 and G2532 Father G3962 of our G2257 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 which according G2596 to his G848 abundant G4183 mercy G1656 hath begotten us again G313 G2248 unto G1519 a lively G2198 hope G1680 by G1223 the resurrection G386 of Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 from G1537 the dead, G3498
4 To G1519 an inheritance G2817 incorruptible, G862 and G2532 undefiled, G283 and G2532 that fadeth not away, G263 reserved G5083 in G1722 heaven G3772 for G1519 you, G2248
5 Who are kept G5432 by G1722 the power G1411 of God G2316 through G1223 faith G4102 unto G1519 salvation G4991 ready G2092 to be revealed G601 in G1722 the last G2078 time. G2540
6 Wherein G1722 G3739 ye greatly rejoice, G21 though now G737 for a season, G3641 if G1487 need be G1163 G2076 , ye are in heaviness G3076 through G1722 manifold G4164 temptations: G3986
7 That G2443 the G3588 trial G1383 of your G5216 faith, G4102 being much G4183 more precious G5093 than of gold G5553 that perisheth, G622 though G1161 it be tried G1381 with G1223 fire, G4442 might be found G2147 unto G1519 praise G1868 and G2532 honor G5092 and G2532 glory G1391 at G1722 the appearing G602 of Jesus G2424 Christ: G5547
8 Whom G3739 having not G3756 seen, G1492 ye love; G25 in G1519 whom, G3739 though now G737 ye see G3708 him not, G3361 yet G1161 believing, G4100 ye rejoice G21 with joy G5479 unspeakable G412 and G2532 full of glory: G1392
9 Receiving G2865 the G3588 end G5056 of your G5216 faith, G4102 even the salvation G4991 of your souls. G5590
10 Of G4012 which G3739 salvation G4991 the prophets G4396 have inquired G1567 and G2532 searched diligently, G1830 who prophesied G4395 of G4012 the G3588 grace G5485 that should come unto G1519 you: G5209
11 Searching G2045 what, G5101 or G2228 what manner G4169 of time G2540 the G3588 Spirit G4151 of Christ G5547 which was in G1722 them G846 did signify, G1213 when it testified beforehand G4303 the G3588 sufferings G3804 of G1519 Christ, G5547 and G2532 the G3588 glory G1391 that should follow G3326 G5023 .
12 Unto whom G3739 it was revealed, G601 that G3754 not G3756 unto themselves, G1438 but G1161 unto us G2254 they did minister G1247 the things, G846 which G3739 are now G3568 reported G312 unto you G5213 by G1223 them that have preached the gospel G2097 unto you G5209 with G1722 the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 sent down G649 from G575 heaven; G3772 which things G3739 the angels G32 desire G1937 to look G3879 into. G1519
13 Wherefore G1352 gird up G328 the G3588 loins G3751 of your G5216 mind, G1271 be sober, G3525 and hope G1679 to the end G5049 for G1909 the G3588 grace G5485 that is to be brought G5342 unto you G5213 at G1722 the revelation G602 of Jesus G2424 Christ; G5547
14 As G5613 obedient G5218 children, G5043 not G3361 fashioning yourselves G4964 according to the G3588 former G4386 lusts G1939 in G1722 your G5216 ignorance: G52
15 But G235 as G2596 he which hath called G2564 you G5209 is holy, G40 so G2532 be G1096 ye G846 holy G40 in G1722 all manner G3956 of conversation; G391
16 Because G1360 it is written, G1125 Be G1096 ye holy; G40 for G3754 I G1473 am G1510 holy. G40
17 And G2532 if G1487 ye call on G1941 the Father, G3962 who without respect of persons judgeth G2919 G678 according G2596 to every man's G1538 work, G2041 pass G390 the G3588 time G5550 of your G5216 sojourning G3940 here in G1722 fear: G5401
18 Forasmuch as ye know G1492 that G3754 ye were not G3756 redeemed G3084 with corruptible things, G5349 as silver G694 and G2228 gold, G5553 from G1537 your G5216 vain G3152 conversation G391 received by tradition from your fathers; G3970
19 But G235 with the precious G5093 blood G129 of Christ, G5547 as G5613 of a lamb G286 without blemish G299 and G2532 without spot: G784
20 Who verily G3303 was foreordained G4267 before G4253 the foundation G2602 of the world, G2889 but G1161 was manifest G5319 in G1909 these last G2078 times G5550 for G1223 you, G5209
21 Who by G1223 him G846 do believe G4100 in G1519 God, G2316 that raised him up G1453 G846 from G1537 the dead, G3498 and G2532 gave G1325 him G846 glory; G1391 that G5620 your G5216 faith G4102 and G2532 hope G1680 might be G1511 in G1519 God. G2316
22 Seeing ye have purified G48 your G5216 souls G5590 in G1722 obeying G5218 the G3588 truth G225 through G1223 the Spirit G4151 unto G1519 unfeigned G505 love of the brethren, G5360 see that ye love G25 one another G240 with G1537 a pure G2513 heart G2588 fervently: G1619
23 Being born again, G313 not G3756 of G1537 corruptible G5349 seed, G4701 but G235 of incorruptible, G862 by G1223 the word G3056 of God, G2316 which liveth G2198 and G2532 abideth G3306 forever G1519 G165 .
24 For G1360 all G3956 flesh G4561 is as G5613 grass, G5528 and G2532 all G3956 the glory G1391 of man G444 as G5613 the flower G438 of grass. G5528 The G3588 grass G5528 withereth, G3583 and G2532 the G3588 flower G438 thereof G846 falleth away: G1601
25 But G1161 the G3588 word G4487 of the Lord G2962 endureth G3306 forever G1519 G165 . And G1161 this G5124 is G2076 the G3588 word G4487 which by the gospel is preached G2097 unto G1519 you. G5209
