1 Peter 2 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

As Newborn Babes

1Pe 2:1

1Pe 2:1Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,

1Pe 2:2

1Pe 2:2as newborn babes, long for the pure milk of the Word, that you may grow thereby,

1Pe 2:3

1Pe 2:3if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious:

As Living Stones

(Psa 118:22; Isa 28:16 )

1Pe 2:4

1Pe 2:4coming to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious.

1Pe 2:5

1Pe 2:5You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Yeshua the Messiah.

1Pe 2:6

1Pe 2:6Because it is contained in Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Tziyon a chief cornerstone, elect, precious: He who believes in him will not be disappointed."

1Pe 2:7

1Pe 2:7For you therefore who believe is the honor, but for such as are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected, Has become the chief cornerstone,"

1Pe 2:8

1Pe 2:8and, "A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense." For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, whereunto also they were appointed.

1Pe 2:9

1Pe 2:9But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, that you may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light:

1Pe 2:10

1Pe 2:10who in time past were no people, but now are God's people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

1Pe 2:11

1Pe 2:11Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;

1Pe 2:12

1Pe 2:12having good behavior among the nations, so in that which they speak against you as evil-doers, they may by your good works, which they see, glorify God in the day of visitation.

Honor Authority

(cf. Rom 13:1–5 )

1Pe 2:13

1Pe 2:13Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;

1Pe 2:14

1Pe 2:14or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evil-doers and for praise to those who do well.

1Pe 2:15

1Pe 2:15For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

1Pe 2:16

1Pe 2:16as free, and not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.

1Pe 2:17

1Pe 2:17Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

(Isa 53:7–9 )

1Pe 2:18

1Pe 2:18Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.

1Pe 2:19

1Pe 2:19For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God.

1Pe 2:20

1Pe 2:20For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if, when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.

Christ Is Our Example

1Pe 2:21

1Pe 2:21For to this you were called, because Messiah also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps,

1Pe 2:22

1Pe 2:22who did not sin, "neither was deceit found in his mouth."

1Pe 2:23

1Pe 2:23Who, when he was reviled, didn't revile back. When he suffered, didn't threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously;

1Pe 2:24

1Pe 2:24who his own self bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness; by whose stripes you were healed.

1Pe 2:25

1Pe 2:25For you were going astray like sheep; but are now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
