Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Therefore, since Christ suffered in His body, arm yourselves with the same resolve, because anyone who has suffered in his body is done with sin.
1Christo igitur passo in carne, et vos eadem cogitatione armamini: quia qui passus est in carne, desiit a peccatis:
2Consequently, he does not live out his remaining time on earth for human passions, but for the will of God.
2ut jam non desideriis hominum, sed voluntati Dei, quod reliquum est in carne vivat temporis.
3For you have spent enough time in the past carrying out the same desires as the Gentiles: living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing, and detestable idolatry.
3Sufficit enim præteritum tempus ad voluntatem gentium consummandam his qui ambulaverunt in luxuriis, desideriis, vinolentiis, comessationibus, potationibus, et illicitis idolorum cultibus.
4Because of this, they consider it strange of you not to plunge with them into the same flood of reckless indiscretion, and they heap abuse on you.
4In quo admirantur non concurrentibus vobis in eamdem luxuriæ confusionem, blasphemantes.
5But they will have to give an account to Him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
5Qui reddent rationem ei qui paratus est judicare vivos et mortuos.
6That is why the gospel was preached even to those who are now dead, so that they might be judged as men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
6Propter hoc enim et mortuis evangelizatum est: ut judicentur quidem secundum homines in carne, vivant autem secundum Deum in spiritu.
7The end of all things is near. Therefore be clear-minded and sober, so that you can pray.
7Omnium autem finis appropinquavit. Estote itaque prudentes, et vigilate in orationibus.
8Above all, love one another deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.
8Ante omnia autem, mutuam in vobismetipsis caritatem continuam habentes: quia caritas operit multitudinem peccatorum.
9Show hospitality to one another without complaining.
9Hospitales invicem sine murmuratione.
10As good stewards of the manifold grace of God, each of you should use whatever gift he has received to serve one another.
10Unusquisque, sicut accepit gratiam, in alterutrum illam administrantes, sicut boni dispensatores multiformis gratiæ Dei.
11If anyone speaks, he should speak as one conveying the words of God. If anyone serves, he should serve with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
11Si quis loquitur, quasi sermones Dei: si quis ministrat, tamquam ex virtute, quam administrat Deus: ut in omnibus honorificetur Deus per Jesum Christum: cui est gloria et imperium in sæcula sæculorum. Amen.
12Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial that has come upon you, as though something strange were happening to you.
12Carissimi, nolite peregrinari in fervore, qui ad tentationem vobis fit, quasi novi aliquid vobis contingat:
13But rejoice that you share in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed at the revelation of His glory.
13sed communicantes Christi passionibus gaudete, ut et in revelatione gloriæ ejus gaudeatis exsultantes.
14If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you.
14Si exprobramini in nomine Christi, beati eritis: quoniam quod est honoris, gloriæ, et virtutis Dei, et qui est ejus Spiritus, super vos requiescit.
15Indeed, none of you should suffer as a murderer or thief or wrongdoer, or even as a meddler.
15Nemo autem vestrum patiatur ut homicida, aut fur, aut maledicus, aut alienorum appetitor.
16But if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but glorify God that you bear that name.
16Si autem ut christianus, non erubescat: glorificet autem Deum in isto nomine:
17For it is time for judgment to begin with the family of God; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who disobey the gospel of God?
17quoniam tempus est ut incipiat judicium a domo Dei. Si autem primum a nobis, quis finis eorum, qui non credunt Dei Evangelio?
18And, “If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”
18et si justus vix salvabitur, impius et peccator ubi parebunt?
19So then, those who suffer according to God’s will should entrust their souls to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.
19Itaque et hi, qui patiuntur secundum voluntatem Dei, fideli Creatori commendent animas suas in benefactis.
