I Peter 1:3

 Blessed [be] the God and Father

 of our Lord Jesus Christ,

 which according to his abundant mercy

 hath begotten us again

unto a lively hope

by the resurrection

of Jesus Christ from the dead,

I Peter 1:4

 To an inheritance

incorruptible, and undefiled,

 and that fadeth not away,

 reserved in heaven for you,

1 Peter 1:21

Who by him do believe in God,

that raised him up from the dead,

and gave him glory;

that your faith and hope might be in God

I Peter 1:22

Seeing ye have purified your souls

in obeying the truth through the Spirit

unto unfeigned love of the brethren,

[see that ye] love one another

with a pure heart fervently:

I Peter 1:23

Being born again,

not of corruptible seed,

but of incorruptible,

by the word of God,

which liveth and abideth for ever

1 Peter 1:24

For all flesh [is] as grass,

and all the glory of man

as the flower of grass.

The grass withereth, and the

flower thereof falleth away:

I Peter 1:25

But the word of the Lord

endureth for ever.

And this is the word

which by the gospel

is preached unto you

I Peter 2:5

Ye also, as lively stones,

are built up a spiritual house,

an holy priesthood,

to offer up spiritual sacrifices,

acceptable to God by Jesus Christ

1 Peter 2:9

But ye [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood,

an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew

forth the praises of him who hath called you out of

darkness into his marvellous light:

1 Peter 2:13
