1 Peter 1:19-22 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

19. but it was with the precious blood of Christ, an immaculate and undefiled lamb,

20. foreknown, certainly, before the foundation of the world, and made manifest in these latter times for your sake.

21. Through him, you have been faithful to God, who raised him up from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope would be in God.

22. So chastise your souls with the obedience of charity, in fraternal love, and love one another from a simple heart, attentively.
