drb 1Peter:2:13-25
drb@1Peter:2:13 @Be ye subject therefore to every human creature for God's sake: whether it be to the king as excelling;
drb@1Peter:2:14 @Or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of the good:
drb@1Peter:2:15 @For so is the will of God, that by doing well you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
drb@1Peter:2:16 @As free, and not as making liberty a cloak for malice, but as the servants of God.
drb@1Peter:2:17 @Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
drb@1Peter:2:18 @Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
drb@1Peter:2:19 @For this is thankworthy, if for conscience towards God, a man endure sorrows, suffering wrongfully.
drb@1Peter:2:20 @For what glory is it, if committing sin, and being buffeted for it, you endure? But if doing well you suffer patiently; this is thankworthy before God.
drb@1Peter:2:21 @For unto this are you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example that you should follow his steps.
drb@1Peter:2:22 @Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth.
drb@1Peter:2:23 @Who, when he was reviled, did not revile: when he suffered, he threatened not: but delivered himself to him that judged him unjustly.
drb@1Peter:2:24 @Who his own self bore our sins in his body upon the tree: that we, being dead to sins, should live to justice: by whose stripes you were healed.
drb@1Peter:2:25 @For you were as sheep going astray; but you are now converted to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.
