1 Peter 2

New Century Version NCV

1 So then, rid yourselves of all evil, all lying, hypocrisy, jealousy, and evil speech.

2 As newborn babies want milk, you should want the pure and simple teaching. By it you can grow up and be saved,

3 because you have already examined and seen how good the Lord is.

4 Come to the Lord Jesus, the "stone" that lives. The people of the world did not want this stone, but he was the stone God chose, and he was precious.

5 You also are like living stones, so let yourselves be used to build a spiritual temple -- to be holy priests who offer spiritual sacrifices to God. He will accept those sacrifices through Jesus Christ.

6 The Scripture says: "I will put a stone in the ground in Jerusalem. Everything will be built on this important and precious rock. Anyone who trusts in him will never be disappointed."

7 This stone is worth much to you who believe. But to the people who do not believe, "the stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone."

8 Also, he is "a stone that causes people to stumble, a rock that makes them fall." They stumble because they do not obey what God says, which is what God planned to happen to them.

9 But you are a chosen people, royal priests, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession. You were chosen to tell about the wonderful acts of God, who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

10 At one time you were not a people, but now you are God's people. In the past you had never received mercy, but now you have received God's mercy.

11 Dear friends, you are like foreigners and strangers in this world. I beg you to avoid the evil things your bodies want to do that fight against your soul.

12 People who do not believe are living all around you and might say that you are doing wrong. Live such good lives that they will see the good things you do and will give glory to God on the day when Christ comes again.

13 For the Lord's sake, yield to the people who have authority in this world: the king, who is the highest authority,

14 and the leaders who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to praise those who do right.

15 It is God's desire that by doing good you should stop foolish people from saying stupid things about you.

16 Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as an excuse to do evil. Live as servants of God.

17 Show respect for all people: Love the brothers and sisters of God's family, respect God, honor the king.

18 Slaves, yield to the authority of your masters with all respect, not only those who are good and kind, but also those who are dishonest.

19 A person might have to suffer even when it is unfair, but if he thinks of God and stands the pain, God is pleased.

20 If you are beaten for doing wrong, there is no reason to praise you for being patient in your punishment. But if you suffer for doing good, and you are patient, then God is pleased.

21 This is what you were called to do, because Christ suffered for you and gave you an example to follow. So you should do as he did.

22 "He had never sinned, and he had never lied."

23 People insulted Christ, but he did not insult them in return. Christ suffered, but he did not threaten. He let God, the One who judges rightly, take care of him.

24 Christ carried our sins in his body on the cross so we would stop living for sin and start living for what is right. And you are healed because of his wounds.

25 You were like sheep that wandered away, but now you have come back to the Shepherd and Protector of your souls.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 deponentes igitur omnem malitiam et omnem dolum et simulationes et invidias et omnes detractiones

2 sicut modo geniti infantes rationale sine dolo lac concupiscite ut in eo crescatis in salutem

3 si gustastis quoniam dulcis Dominus

4 ad quem accedentes lapidem vivum ab hominibus quidem reprobatum a Deo autem electum honorificatum

5 et ipsi tamquam lapides vivi superaedificamini domus spiritalis sacerdotium sanctum offerre spiritales hostias acceptabiles Deo per Iesum Christum

6 propter quod continet in scriptura ecce pono in Sion lapidem summum angularem electum pretiosum et qui crediderit in eo non confundetur

7 vobis igitur honor credentibus non credentibus autem lapis quem reprobaverunt aedificantes hic factus est in caput anguli

8 et lapis offensionis et petra scandali qui offendunt verbo nec credunt in quod et positi sunt

9 vos autem genus electum regale sacerdotium gens sancta populus adquisitionis ut virtutes adnuntietis eius qui de tenebris vos vocavit in admirabile lumen suum

10 qui aliquando non populus nunc autem populus Dei qui non consecuti misericordiam nunc autem misericordiam consecuti

11 carissimi obsecro tamquam advenas et peregrinos abstinere vos a carnalibus desideriis quae militant adversus animam

12 conversationem vestram inter gentes habentes bonam ut in eo quod detractant de vobis tamquam de malefactoribus ex bonis operibus considerantes glorificent Deum in die visitationis

13 subiecti estote omni humanae creaturae propter Dominum sive regi quasi praecellenti

14 sive ducibus tamquam ab eo missis ad vindictam malefactorum laudem vero bonorum

15 quia sic est voluntas Dei ut benefacientes obmutescere faciatis inprudentium hominum ignorantiam

16 quasi liberi et non quasi velamen habentes malitiae libertatem sed sicut servi Dei

17 omnes honorate fraternitatem diligite Deum timete regem honorificate

18 servi subditi in omni timore dominis non tantum bonis et modestis sed etiam discolis

19 haec est enim gratia si propter conscientiam Dei sustinet quis tristitias patiens iniuste

20 quae enim gloria est si peccantes et colaphizati suffertis sed si benefacientes et patientes sustinetis haec est gratia apud Deum

21 in hoc enim vocati estis quia et Christus passus est pro vobis vobis relinquens exemplum ut sequamini vestigia eius

22 qui peccatum non fecit nec inventus est dolus in ore ipsius

23 qui cum malediceretur non maledicebat cum pateretur non comminabatur tradebat autem iudicanti se iniuste

24 qui peccata nostra ipse pertulit in corpore suo super lignum ut peccatis mortui iustitiae viveremus cuius livore sanati estis

25 eratis enim sicut oves errantes sed conversi estis nunc ad pastorem et episcopum animarum vestrarum
