1 Peter 4
1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered
ℵ ⟨dieth⟩
for usB omit; ℵ ⟨for you⟩
in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sinB ⟨sins⟩
;1 Christo igitur passo in carne, et vos eadem cogitatione armamini: quia qui passus est in carne, desiit a peccatis:
2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
2 ut jam non desideriis hominum, sed voluntati Dei, quod reliquum est in carne vivat temporis.
3 For the time past of our life
ℵBA omit
may suffice usBA omit; ℵ ⟨you⟩
to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when weℵ ⟨ye⟩
walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:3 Sufficit enim præteritum tempus ad voluntatem gentium consummandam his qui ambulaverunt in luxuriis, desideriis, vinolentiis, comessationibus, potationibus, et illicitis idolorum cultibus.
4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking
ℵ ⟨and speak⟩
evil of you:4 In quo admirantur non concurrentibus vobis in eamdem luxuriæ confusionem, blasphemantes.
5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
5 Qui reddent rationem ei qui paratus est judicare vivos et mortuos.
6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
6 Propter hoc enim et mortuis evangelizatum est: ut judicentur quidem secundum homines in carne, vivant autem secundum Deum in spiritu.
7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and
ℵ omit
watch unto prayer.7 ¶ Omnium autem finis appropinquavit. Estote itaque prudentes, et vigilate in orationibus.
8 And
ℵBA omit
above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall coverBA ⟨covereth⟩
the multitude of sins.8 Ante omnia autem, mutuam in vobismetipsis caritatem continuam habentes: quia caritas operit multitudinem peccatorum.
9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
9 Hospitales invicem sine murmuratione.
10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
10 Unusquisque, sicut accepit gratiam, in alterutrum illam administrantes, sicut boni dispensatores multiformis gratiæ Dei.
11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be
A ⟨be⟩
praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.11 Si quis loquitur, quasi sermones Dei: si quis ministrat, tamquam ex virtute, quam administrat Deus: ut in omnibus honorificetur Deus per Jesum Christum: cui est gloria et imperium in sæcula sæculorum. Amen.
12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
12 ¶ Carissimi, nolite peregrinari in fervore, qui ad tentationem vobis fit, quasi novi aliquid vobis contingat:
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
13 sed communicantes Christi passionibus gaudete, ut et in revelatione gloriæ ejus gaudeatis exsultantes.
14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory
ℵ ⟨his glory⟩
and of GodℵA ⟨power and of God⟩
resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorifiedℵBA omit
.14 Si exprobramini in nomine Christi, beati eritis: quoniam quod est honoris, gloriæ, et virtutis Dei, et qui est ejus Spiritus, super vos requiescit.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
15 Nemo autem vestrum patiatur ut homicida, aut fur, aut maledicus, aut alienorum appetitor.
16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf
ℵBA ⟨in this name⟩
.16 Si autem ut christianus, non erubescat: glorificet autem Deum in isto nomine:
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us
ℵA ⟨you⟩
, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?17 quoniam tempus est ut incipiat judicium a domo Dei. Si autem primum a nobis, quis finis eorum, qui non credunt Dei Evangelio?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
18 et si justus vix salvabitur, impius et peccator ubi parebunt?
19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their
B ⟨their⟩
souls to him in well doing, asℵBA omit
unto a faithful Creator.19 Itaque et hi, qui patiuntur secundum voluntatem Dei, fideli Creatori commendent animas suas in benefactis.
