King James 2000

1 Peter 1:15-21 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

15. But as he who has called you is holy, so be holy in all manner of conduct;

16. Because it is written, You will be holy; for I am holy.

17. And if you call on the Father, who without respect of persons judges according to every man's work, pass the time of your exile here in fear:

18. Since you know that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain manner of life received by tradition from your fathers;

19. But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

20. Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

21. Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.
