ABP - I Peter - 4

4:1  Christ then having suffered for us in flesh, you also with the same reflection be armed! For the one suffering in flesh, has ceased of sin;

4:2  to no longer [6of men's 7desires 8but 9God's will 2the remaining 4in 5the flesh 1spend 3time].

4:3  For sufficient to us was the having passed time of the existence [2the 3will 4of the 5nations 1to have worked], going in lewdnesses, desires, drunkennesses with wine, debaucheries, drinking banquets, and unlawful idolatries;

4:4  in which they think it strange [2not 3running together 1your] in the same [2of carnality 1pouring out], being blasphemous;

4:5  ones who shall render an account to the one readily sufficing to judge the living and dead.

4:6  [2in 3this 1For] also to the dead was announced good news, that they should be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but should live according to God in spirit.

4:7  But of all things the end approaches. Be of sound mind then and be sober in the prayers!

4:8  [2before 3all things 1But 5the 8among 9yourselves 7love 6intense 4having]; for the love covers a multitude of sins;

4:9  being hospitable to one another without grumblings;

4:10  each as he received favor, to each other serving, as good managers of the variegated favor of God.

4:11  If any speaks, let it be as oracles of God; if any serves, let it be as from out of strength which God supplies; that in all things God should be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the might into the eons of the eons. Amen.

4:12  Beloved, do not take it as strange the [3among 4you 1burning fire 5to 6test 7you 2taking place], as a strange thing happening to you;

4:13  but according to that which you participate with the [2of the 3Christ 1sufferings] rejoice! that also in the revelation of his glory you should rejoice exulting.

4:14  If you are berated in the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the glory and the spirit of God [2unto 3you 1gives rest]. Indeed according to them he is blasphemed, but according to you he is glorified.

4:15  For let not any of you suffer as a murderer, or thief, or one doing evil, or as a busybody!

4:16  But if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this part!

4:17  For it is the time to begin the judgment from the house of God; and if first from us, what is the end of the ones disobeying the good news of God?

4:18  And if the righteous one hardly is delivered, the impious and sinner, where shall they appear?

4:19  So then, even the ones suffering according to the will of God, as to a trustworthy creator, let them place their souls in doing good.
