1 Peter 4:12-19 - Interlinear Bible
Share the Sufferings of Christ
12
Beloved, do not be
surprised at the
fiery ordeal among you, which
comes upon you for your
testing, as
though some
strange thing were
happening to you;
13
but to the
degree that you
share the
sufferings of
Christ, keep on
rejoicing,
so that
also at the
revelation of His
glory you may
rejoice with
exultation.
14
If you are
reviled for the
name of
Christ, you are
blessed,
because the
Spirit of
glory and of
God rests on you.
16
but
if anyone suffers as a
Christian, he is not to be
ashamed, but is to
glorify God in
this name.
17
For it is
time for
judgment to
begin with the
household of
God ; and
if it begins with us
first,
what will be the
outcome for
those who
do not
obey the
gospel of
God ?
18
AND
IF IT IS WITH
DIFFICULTY THAT THE
RIGHTEOUS IS
SAVED,
WHAT WILL
BECOME OF THE
GODLESS MAN AND THE
SINNER ?
