Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Rid yourselves, therefore, of all malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander.
1αποθεμενοι ουν πασαν κακιαν και παντα δολον και υποκρισεισ και φθονουσ και πασασ καταλαλιασ
2Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation,
2ωσ αρτιγεννητα βρεφη το λογικον αδολον γαλα επιποθησατε ινα εν αυτω αυξηθητε
3now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.
3ειπερ εγευσασθε οτι χρηστοσ ο κυριοσ
4As you come to Him, the living stone, rejected by men but chosen and precious in God’s sight,
4προσ ον προσερχομενοι λιθον ζωντα υπο ανθρωπων μεν αποδεδοκιμασμενον παρα δε θεω εκλεκτον εντιμον
5you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
5και αυτοι ωσ λιθοι ζωντεσ οικοδομεισθε οικοσ πνευματικοσ ιερατευμα αγιον ανενεγκαι πνευματικασ θυσιασ ευπροσδεκτουσ τω θεω δια ιησου χριστου
6For it stands in Scripture: “See, I lay in Zion a stone, a chosen and precious cornerstone; and the one who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”
6διοτι περιεχει εν τη γραφη ιδου τιθημι εν σιων λιθον ακρογωνιαιον εκλεκτον εντιμον και ο πιστευων επ αυτω ου μη καταισχυνθη
7To you who believe, then, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe, “The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,”
7υμιν ουν η τιμη τοισ πιστευουσιν απειθουσιν δε λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντεσ ουτοσ εγενηθη εισ κεφαλην γωνιασ
8and, “A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word—and to this they were appointed.
8και λιθοσ προσκομματοσ και πετρα σκανδαλου οι προσκοπτουσιν τω λογω απειθουντεσ εισ ο και ετεθησαν
9But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, to proclaim the virtues of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
9υμεισ δε γενοσ εκλεκτον βασιλειον ιερατευμα εθνοσ αγιον λαοσ εισ περιποιησιν οπωσ τασ αρετασ εξαγγειλητε του εκ σκοτουσ υμασ καλεσαντοσ εισ το θαυμαστον αυτου φωσ
10Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
10οι ποτε ου λαοσ νυν δε λαοσ θεου οι ουκ ηλεημενοι νυν δε ελεηθεντεσ
11Beloved, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from the desires of the flesh, which war against your soul.
11αγαπητοι παρακαλω ωσ παροικουσ και παρεπιδημουσ απεχεσθαι των σαρκικων επιθυμιων αιτινεσ στρατευονται κατα τησ ψυχησ
12Conduct yourselves with such honor among the Gentiles that, though they slander you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day He visits us.
12την αναστροφην υμων εχοντεσ καλην εν τοισ εθνεσιν ινα εν ω καταλαλουσιν υμων ωσ κακοποιων εκ των καλων εργων εποπτευσαντεσ δοξασωσιν τον θεον εν ημερα επισκοπησ
13Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human institution, whether to the king as the supreme authority,
13υποταγητε ουν παση ανθρωπινη κτισει δια τον κυριον ειτε βασιλει ωσ υπερεχοντι
14or to governors as those sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to praise those who do right.
14ειτε ηγεμοσιν ωσ δι αυτου πεμπομενοισ εισ εκδικησιν κακοποιων επαινον δε αγαθοποιων
15For it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorance of foolish men.
15οτι ουτωσ εστιν το θελημα του θεου αγαθοποιουντασ φιμουν την των αφρονων ανθρωπων αγνωσιαν
16Live in freedom, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as servants of God.
16ωσ ελευθεροι και μη ωσ επικαλυμμα εχοντεσ τησ κακιασ την ελευθεριαν αλλ ωσ δουλοι θεου
17Treat everyone with high regard: Love the brotherhood of believers, fear God, honor the king.
17παντασ τιμησατε την αδελφοτητα αγαπησατε τον θεον φοβεισθε τον βασιλεα τιματε
18Servants, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and gentle, but even to those who are unreasonable.
18οι οικεται υποτασσομενοι εν παντι φοβω τοισ δεσποταισ ου μονον τοισ αγαθοισ και επιεικεσιν αλλα και τοισ σκολιοισ
19For if anyone endures the pain of unjust suffering because he is conscious of God, this is to be commended.
19τουτο γαρ χαρισ ει δια συνειδησιν θεου υποφερει τισ λυπασ πασχων αδικωσ
20How is it to your credit if you are beaten for doing wrong and you endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God.
20ποιον γαρ κλεοσ ει αμαρτανοντεσ και κολαφιζομενοι υπομενειτε αλλ ει αγαθοποιουντεσ και πασχοντεσ υπομενειτε τουτο χαρισ παρα θεω
21For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in His footsteps:
21εισ τουτο γαρ εκληθητε οτι και χριστοσ επαθεν υπερ ημων υμιν υπολιμπανων υπογραμμον ινα επακολουθησητε τοισ ιχνεσιν αυτου
22“He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in His mouth.”
22οσ αμαρτιαν ουκ εποιησεν ουδε ευρεθη δολοσ εν τω στοματι αυτου
23When they heaped abuse on Him, He did not retaliate; when He suffered, He made no threats, but entrusted Himself to Him who judges justly.
23οσ λοιδορουμενοσ ουκ αντελοιδορει πασχων ουκ ηπειλει παρεδιδου δε τω κρινοντι δικαιωσ
24He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. “By His stripes you are healed.”
24οσ τασ αμαρτιασ ημων αυτοσ ανηνεγκεν εν τω σωματι αυτου επι το ξυλον ινα ταισ αμαρτιαισ απογενομενοι τη δικαιοσυνη ζησωμεν ου τω μωλωπι αυτου ιαθητε
25For “you were like sheep going astray,” but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
25ητε γαρ ωσ προβατα πλανωμενα αλλ επεστραφητε νυν επι τον ποιμενα και επισκοπον των ψυχων υμων
