1 Peter - Chapter: 2


2:1	Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and enuies, and euill speakings,
2:2	As new borne babes desire the sincere milke of the word, that ye may grow thereby,
2:3	If so bee yee haue tasted that the Lord is gracious.
2:4	To whom comming as vnto a liuing Stone, disallowed in deed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
2:5	Ye also as liuely stones, are built vp a spirituall house, an holy Priesthood to offer vp spirituall sacrifice, acceptable to God by Iesus Christ.
2:6	Wherefore it is conteined in the Scripture, Beholde, I lay in Sion a chiefe corner stone, elect, precious, and he that beleeueth on him, shall not be confounded.
2:7	Unto you therfore which beleeue hee is precious; but vnto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
2:8	And a Stone of stumbling, and a Rocke of offence, euen to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient, whereunto also they were appointed.
2:9	But yee are a chosen generation, a royall Priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, that yee should shewe forth the praises of him, who hath called you out of darknes into his marueilous light:
2:10	Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obteined mercie, but now haue obteined mercy.
2:11	Dearely beloued, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrimes, abstaine from fleshly lusts, which warre against the soule,
2:12	Hauing your conuersation honest among the Gentiles, that whereas they speake against you as euill doers, they may by your good works which they shall behold, glorifie God in the day of visitation.
2:13	Submit your selues to euery ordinance of man for the Lordes sake, whether it be to the King, as supreme,
2:14	Or vnto gouernours, as vnto them that are sent by him, for the punishment of euil doers, and for the praise of them that doe well.
2:15	For so is the will of God, that with well doing yee may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.
2:16	As free, and not vsing your libertie for a cloake of maliciousnesse, but as the seruants of God.
2:17	Honour all men. Loue the brotherhood. Feare God. Honour the King.
2:18	Seruants, be subiect to your masters with al feare, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
2:19	For this is thanke-worthie, if a man for conscience toward God endure griefe, suffering wrongfully.
2:20	For what glory is it, if when yee be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently: but if when yee doe well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
2:21	For euen hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for vs, leauing vs an example, that yee should follow his steps.
2:22	Who did no sinne, neither was guile found in his mouth.
2:23	Who when hee was reuiled, reuiled not againe; when hee suffered, hee threatned not, but committed himselfe to him that iudgeth righteously.
2:24	Who his owne selfe bare our sinnes in his owne body on the tree, that wee being dead to sinnes, should liue vnto righteousnesse, by whose stripes ye were healed.
2:25	For yee were as sheepe going astray, but are now returned vnto the shepheard and Bishop of your soules.


2:1	Wherfore laye asyde all maliciousnes and all gyle, and ypocrisye, and envye, and all bacbytinge,
2:2	& as new borne babes desyre that reasonable mylke, which is without corrupcion, that ye maye growe therin,
2:3	yf so be that ye haue taisted how frendly the LORDE is.
2:4	Vnto whom ye are come, as to the lyuynge stone, which is disalowed of men, but chosen of God and precious.
2:5	And ye also as lyuynge stones are made a spirituall house, and an holy presthode, to offre vp spirituall sacrifices, acceptable vnto God by Iesus Christ.
2:6	Wherfore it is conteyned in the scripture: Beholde, I put in Sion an heade corner stone, electe & precious, and he that beleueth on him, shal not be cofounded.
2:7	Vnto you therfore which beleue, he is precious: but vnto them that beleue not, is ye same stone which the buylders refused, made the heade stone in the corner,
2:8	and a stone to stomble at, and a rock to be offended at, namely in the which stomble at ye worde, and beleue not that wheron they were set.
2:9	But ye are that chosen generacion, that kyngly presthode, that holy nacion, that peculier people, yt ye shulde shewe the vertues of him, which hath called you out of darknesse in to his maruelous lighte:
2:10	Euen you which in tyme past were not a people, but now are the people of God: which were not vnder mercy, but now haue optayned mercy.
2:11	Dearly beloued, I beseke you as straungers and pilgrems, absteyne fro the fleshly lustes, which fighte agaynst the soule,
2:12	and lede an honest conuersacion amonge the Heythen, that they which bacbyte you as euell doers, maye se youre good workes, and prayse God in the daye of visitacion.
2:13	Submytte youre selues vnto all maner ordinaunce of men for the LORDES sake: whether it be vnto the kynge as vnto ye chefe heade,
2:14	or vnto rulers, as vnto them that are sent of him, for the punyshment of euell doers, but for the prayse of the that do well.
2:15	For so is the will of God, that ye with well doynge shulde put to sylence the ignoraunce of folishmen:
2:16	as fre, and not as hauynge the libertye for a cloke of wickednes, but eue as the seruauntes of God.
2:17	Honoure all men. Loue brotherly fellishippe. Feare God. Honoure the kynge.
2:18	Ye seruautes, obey youre masters with all feare: not onely yf they be good and curteous, but also though they be frowarde.
2:19	For that is grace, yf a man for conscience towarde God endure grefe, and suffre wronge.
2:20	For what prayse is it, yf wha ye be buffeted for yor fautes, ye take it paciently? But yf whan ye do well, ye suffre wronge, and take it paciently, that is grace with God.
2:21	For here vnto are ye called, for so moch as Christ also suffred for vs, leauynge vs an ensample, that ye shulde folowe his fotesteppes,
2:22	which dyd no synne, nether was there gyle founde in his mouth:
2:23	which whan he was reuyled, reuyled not agayne: wha he suffred, he threatened not: but commytted the cause vnto him, that iudgeth righteously:
2:24	which his owne selfe bare oure synnes in his body vpon the tre, that we shulde be delyuered from synne, & shulde lyue vnto righteousnes: by whose strypes ye were healed.
2:25	For ye were as shepe goinge astraye, but now are ye turned vnto the shepherde and Bisshoppe of youre soules.


2:1	Therfor putte ye awei al malice, and al gile, and feynyngis, and enuyes, and alle bacbityngis;
2:2	as now borun yonge children, resonable, with out gile, coueite ye mylk, that in it ye wexe in to helthe; if netheles ye han tastid,
2:3	that the Lord is swete.
2:4	And neiye ye to hym, that is a lyuyng stoon, and repreuyd of men, but chosun of God, and onourid;
2:5	and ye silf as quyk stoonys be ye aboue bildid in to spiritual housis, and an hooli preesthod, to offre spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God bi Jhesu Crist.
2:6	For which thing the scripture seith, Lo! Y schal sette in Syon the hiyeste corner stoon, chosun and preciouse; and he that schal belieue in hym, schal not be confoundid.
2:7	Therfor onour to you that bileuen; but to men that bileuen not, the stoon whom the bilderis repreuyden, this is maad in to the heed of the corner; and the stoon of hirtyng,
2:8	and stoon of sclaundre, to hem that offenden to the word, nethir bileuen it, in which thei ben set.
2:9	But ye ben a chosun kyn, a kyngli preesthod, hooli folc, a puple of purchasing, that ye telle the vertues of hym, that clepide you fro derknessis in to his wondirful liyt.
2:10	Which sum tyme were not a puple of God, but now ye ben the puple of God; which hadden not merci, but now ye han merci.
2:11	Moost dere, Y biseche you, as comelyngis and pilgrymys, to absteine you fro fleischli desiris, that fiyten ayens the soule;
2:12	and haue ye youre conuersacioun good among hethene men, that in that thing that thei bacbite of you, as of mysdoeris, thei biholden you of good werkis, and glorifie God in the dai of visitacioun.
2:13	Be ye suget to ech creature, for God; ethir to the kyng, as to hym that is hiyer in state,
2:14	ethir to duykis, as to thilke that ben sent of hym to the veniaunce of mysdoers, and to the preisyng of good men.
2:15	For so is the wille of God, that ye do wel, and make the vnkunnyngnesse of vnprudent men to be doumb.
2:16	As fre men, and not as hauynge fredom the keuering of malice, but as the seruauntis of God.
2:17	Onoure ye alle men, loue ye brithirhod, drede ye God, onoure ye the king.
2:18	Seruauntis, be ye sugetis in al drede to lordis, not oneli to good and to mylde, but also to tyrauntis.
2:19	For this is grace, if for conscience of God ony man suffrith heuynessis, and suffrith vniustli.
2:20	For what grace is it, if ye synnen, and ben buffatid, and suffren? But if ye don wel, and suffren pacientli, this is grace anentis God.
2:21	For to this thing ye ben clepid. For also Crist suffride for vs, and lefte ensaumple to you, that ye folewe the steppis of hym.
2:22	Which dide not synne, nethir gile was foundun in his mouth.
2:23	And whanne he was cursid, he curside not; whanne he suffride, he manasside not; but he bitook hym silf to hym, that demyde hym vniustli.
2:24	And he hym silf bar oure synnes in his bodi on a tre, that we be deed to synnes, and lyue to riytwisnesse, bi whos wan wounde ye ben heelid.
2:25	For ye weren as scheep errynge, but ye ben now turned to the schipherde, and bischop of youre soulis.
