rotherham@1Peter:2:21 @ For, hereunto, have ye been called; because, Christ also, suffered in your behalf, unto you, leaving behind a pattern, that ye might follow in his steps:

rotherham@1Peter:2:22 @ Who did not, a sin, commit, neither was deceit found in his mouth,

rotherham@1Peter:2:23 @ Who, being reviled, was not reviling again, suffering, he was not threatening, but was making surrender unto him that judgeth righteously,

rotherham@1Peter:3:17 @ For it is, better, as well-doers, if it should please the pleasure of God, to be suffering, than, as evil-doers:

rotherham@1Peter:4:2 @ To the end that, no longer, in mens covetings, but in Gods will, ye may live, the still remaining time.

rotherham@1Peter:4:3 @ For, sufficient, is the bygone timeto have wrought out, the will of the nations, having gone on in wanton ways, covetings, wine-drinkings, revellings, drinking-bouts, and impious idolatries:

rotherham@1Peter:4:4 @ Wherein they are taken by surprise that ye run not with them into the same overflow of riotous excess, uttering defamation:

rotherham@1Peter:4:5 @ Who shall render an account unto him who is holding in readiness to judge living and dead;

rotherham@1Peter:4:6 @ For, unto this end, even unto the dead, was the glad-message delivered, in order that they might be judged, indeed, according to men in flesh, but might live according to God in spirit.

rotherham@1Peter:4:11 @ If any one speaketh, as oracles of God, if any one ministereth, as of strength which, God, supplieth, that, in all things, God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, unto whom are the glory and the dominion, unto the ages of ages. Amen!

rotherham@1Peter:4:12 @ Beloved! be not held in surprise by the burning among you, which, for putting you to the proof, is befalling you, as though a, surprising, thing were happening unto you;

rotherham@1Peter:4:13 @ But, in so far as ye are taking fellowship in the Christs sufferings, rejoice! in order that, in the revealing of his glory also, ye may rejoice with exultation:

rotherham@1Peter:4:14 @ If ye are being reproached in the name of Christ, happy of God, unto you is bringing rest.

rotherham@1Peter:4:15 @ For let, none of you, be suffering as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil-doer, or as one prying into other mens affairs;

rotherham@1Peter:4:16 @ But, if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but be glorifying God in this name.

rotherham@1Peter:4:17 @ For it is the ripe time for the judgment to begin with the house of God; but, if first with us, what shall be the end of them who yield not unto the glad-message of God?

rotherham@1Peter:4:18 @ And, if, the righteous man, is, with difficulty, saved, where then shall, the ungodly and sinful man, appear?

rotherham@1Peter:5:1 @ Elders, therefore, among you, I exhort who am their co-elder and a witness of the sufferings of the Christ, who also, in the glory about to be revealed, have, a share;

rotherham@1Peter:5:2 @ Shepherd the beloved flock of God, which is among you, not by compulsion, but by choice, nor yet for base gain, but of a ready mind,

rotherham@1Peter:5:3 @ Nor yet as lording it over the allotted portions, but becoming, ensamples, to the beloved flock;

rotherham@1Peter:5:4 @ And, when the Chief Shepherd is manifested, ye shall bear away, the unfading crown of glory.

rotherham@1Peter:5:5 @ In like manner, ye younger mensubmit yourselves unto elders; All, however, one towards another, gird on humility; because, God, against the haughty, arrayeth himself, whereas, unto the lowly, he giveth favour.

rotherham@1Peter:5:6 @ Be made lowly, therefore, under the strong hand of God, that he may lift, you, up in due time,

rotherham@1Peter:5:7 @ All your anxiety, casting upon him, because he careth for you.

rotherham@1Peter:5:8 @ Be sober! be watchful! Your slanderous adversary, as a roaring lion, is walking aboutseeking to devour:

rotherham@1Peter:5:9 @ Whom resist, steadfast in your faith, knowing that, the same sufferings, in your brotherhood that is in the world, are being accomplished.

rotherham@1Peter:5:10 @ Howbeit, the God of all favourwho hath called you unto his age-abiding glory in Christwhen, for a little, ye have suffered, Himself, will adjust, confirm, strengthen:

rotherham@1Peter:5:11 @ Unto him, be the dominion, unto the ages. Amen!

rotherham@1Peter:5:12 @ By Silvanus, the faithful brother, as I account him, have I briefly written, unto you, exhorting and adding testimonythat, this, is the true favour of Godwithin which, stand ye fast!

rotherham@1Peter:5:13 @ She who, in Babylon, is co-elect, and Mark my son, salute you:

rotherham@1Peter:5:14 @ Salute ye one another with a kiss of love. Peace unto you all who are in Christ.

rotherham@2Peter:1:1 @ Simon Peter, servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, unto them who have obtained, equally precious, faith, with us, in the righteousness of our God, and Saviour Jesus Christ,

rotherham@2Peter:1:2 @ Favour unto you, and peace, be multiplied, in the personal knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord;

rotherham@2Peter:1:3 @ As, all things, suited for life and godliness his divine power, unto us, hath given, through the personal knowledge of him that hath called us through glory and excellence,

rotherham@2Peter:1:4 @ Through which, his precious, and very great, promises, have, unto us, been given, in order that, through these, ye might become sharers in a divine natureescaping the corruption that is in the world by coveting.

rotherham@2Peter:1:5 @ And, for this very reason alsoadding, on your part, all diligence, supply, in your faith, excellence, and, in your excellence, knowledge,

rotherham@2Peter:1:6 @ And, in your knowledge, self-control, and, in your self-control, endurance, and, in your endurance, godliness,

rotherham@2Peter:1:7 @ And, in your godliness, brotherly affection, and, in your brotherly affection, love.

rotherham@2Peter:1:8 @ These things, unto you, belonging and abounding, neither idle nor unfruitful, constitute you, regarding the personal knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rotherham@2Peter:1:9 @ For, he to whom these things are not present, is, blind, seeing only what is near, having come, to forget, his purification from his old sins.

rotherham@2Peter:1:10 @ Wherefore, all the more, brethren, give diligence to be making, firm, your calling and election; for, these things, doing, in nowise shall ye stumble at any time,

rotherham@2Peter:1:11 @ For, thus, shall richly be further supplied unto youthe entrance into the age-abiding kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

rotherham@2Peter:1:12 @ Wherefore, I shall be certain to be, always, putting you in remembrance concerning these things, although, indeed, ye know them, and have become confirmed in the present truth;

rotherham@2Peter:1:13 @ Right, nevertheless, I account itas long as I am in this tent, to be stirring you up by putting you in remembrance,

rotherham@2Peter:1:14 @ Knowing that, speedy, is the putting off of my tenteven as, our Lord Jesus Christ also, made clear to me:

rotherham@2Peter:1:15 @ Yea, I will give diligence also, that, at every time, ye may be able, after my own departure, to be keeping up the remembrance of, these very things.

rotherham@2Peter:1:16 @ For, not as having followed, cleverly devised stories, made we known unto you the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but as having been made, spectators, of his majesty.

rotherham@2Peter:1:17 @ For, when he received from God the Father honour and glory, a voice, being borne to him such as this, by the magnificent glory My Son, the beloved, is, this, in whom, I, delight,

rotherham@2Peter:1:18 @ Even this voice, we, heard, when, out of heaven, it was borne, we being, with him, in the holy mount.

rotherham@2Peter:1:19 @ And we have, more firm, the prophetic word; whereunto ye are doing, well, to take heed, as unto a lamp shining in a dusky place, until, day, shall dawn, and, a day-star, shall arise in your hearts:

rotherham@2Peter:1:20 @ Of this, first, taking notethat, no prophecy of scripture, becometh, self-solving;

rotherham@2Peter:1:21 @ For not, by will of man, was prophecy brought in, at any time, but, as, by Holy Spirit, they were borne along, spake, men, from God.

rotherham@2Peter:2:1 @ But there arose false-prophets also among the people, as, among you also, there shall be, false-teachers, men who will stealthily bring in destructive parties, even the Master that bought them, denying, bringing upon themselves speedy destruction;

rotherham@2Peter:2:2 @ And, many, will follow out their wanton ways, by reason of whom, the way of truth, will be defamed,

rotherham@2Peter:2:3 @ And, in greed, with forged words, will they, of you, make merchandise: for whom, the sentence from of old, is not idle, and, their destruction, doth not slumber.

rotherham@2Peter:2:4 @ Forif, God, spared not, messengers, when they sinned, but, to pits of gloom, consigning them, in the lowest hades, delivered them up to be kept, unto judgment,

rotherham@2Peter:2:5 @ And, an ancient world, spared not, but, with seven others, preserved, Noah, a proclaimer, of righteousness, a flood, upon a world of ungodly persons, letting loose,

rotherham@2Peter:2:6 @ And, the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, reducing to ashes, he condemned, an example of such as should be ungodly, having set forth,

rotherham@2Peter:2:7 @ And, righteous Lot, when getting worn out by the behaviour of them who were impious in wantonness, he rescued

rotherham@2Peter:2:8 @ For, in seeing and hearing, since he dwelt right among them, as a righteous man, he used to torment his soul, day by day, with their lawless deeds

rotherham@2Peter:2:18 @ For, great swelling words of vanity, uttering, they entice with carnal covetingsin wanton waysthem who are, well-nigh, escaping from the men who, in error, have their behaviour;

rotherham@2Peter:2:19 @ Promising, freedom to them, they themselves, being all the while, slaves of corruption, for, by whom one hath been defeated, by the same, hath he become enslaved,

rotherham@2Peter:2:20 @ For, if, having escaped from the defilements of the world by a personal knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, but, by the same having again become entangled, they are defeated, the, last, state hath become, for them, worse than, the first;

rotherham@2Peter:3:1 @ This, already, beloved, is the second letter I am writing unto you; and, in these letters, I am stirring upby way of calling to remembranceyour uncorrupted mind,

rotherham@2Peter:3:2 @ To remember the fore-spoken declarations made by the holy prophets, and the commandment of the Lord and Saviour, by your apostles.

rotherham@2Peter:3:3 @ Of this, first, taking notethat there will come, in the last of the days, with scoffing, scoffers, after their own covetings, going on,

rotherham@2Peter:3:4 @ and saying Where is the promise of his presence? For, since the fathers fell asleep, all things, thus remain, from the beginning of creation.

rotherham@2Peter:3:5 @ For this they, willfully, forgetthat there were, heavens, from of old, and, an earth, on account of water and by means of water, compacted, by Gods word,

rotherham@2Peter:3:6 @ By which means, the world that then was, with water being flooded, perished;

rotherham@2Peter:3:7 @ While, the heavens and the earth that now are, by the same word, have been stored with fire, being kept unto the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly men.

rotherham@2Peter:3:8 @ But, this one thing, forget not, beloved, that, one day, with the Lord, is as a thousand years, and, a thousand years, as one day.

rotherham@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is, not slack, concerning his promise, as some count, slackness; but is long-suffering with regard to you, not being minded that any should perish, but that, all, unto repentance, should come.

rotherham@2Peter:3:10 @ Howbeit the day of the Lord will be here, as a thief, in which, the heavens, with a rushing noise, will pass away, while, elements, becoming intensely hot, will be dissolved, and, earth, and the works therein, will be discovered.
