The Latin Vulgate VUL
Revised Standard Version RSV
1 Christo igitur passo in carne et vos eadem cogitatione armamini quia qui passus est carne desiit a peccatis
1
Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same thought, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,
2 ut iam non hominum desideriis sed voluntate Dei quod reliquum est in carne vivat temporis
2
so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer by human passions but by the will of God.
3 sufficit enim praeteritum tempus ad voluntatem gentium consummandam qui ambulaverunt in luxuriis desideriis vinolentiis comesationibus potationibus et inlicitis idolorum cultibus
3
Let the time that is past suffice for doing what the Gentiles like to do, living in licentiousness, passions, drunkenness, revels, carousing, and lawless idolatry.
4 in quo peregrinantur non concurrentibus vobis in eandem luxuriae confusionem blasphemantes
4
They are surprised that you do not now join them in the same wild profligacy, and they abuse you;
5 qui reddent rationem ei qui paratus est iudicare vivos et mortuos
5
but they will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 propter hoc enim et mortuis evangelizatum est ut iudicentur quidem secundum homines in carne vivant autem secundum Deum spiritu
6
For this is why the gospel was preached even to the dead, that though judged in the flesh like men, they might live in the spirit like God.
7 omnium autem finis adpropinquavit estote itaque prudentes et vigilate in orationibus
7
The end of all things is at hand; therefore keep sane and sober for your prayers.
8 ante omnia mutuam in vosmet ipsos caritatem continuam habentes quia caritas operit multitudinem peccatorum
8
Above all hold unfailing your love for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins.
9 hospitales invicem sine murmuratione
9
Practice hospitality ungrudgingly to one another.
10 unusquisque sicut accepit gratiam in alterutrum illam administrantes sicut boni dispensatores multiformis gratiae Dei
10
As each has received a gift, employ it for one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace:
11 si quis loquitur quasi sermones Dei si quis ministrat tamquam ex virtute quam administrat Deus ut in omnibus honorificetur Deus per Iesum Christum cui est gloria et imperium in saecula saeculorum amen
11
whoever speaks, as one who utters oracles of God; whoever renders service, as one who renders it by the strength which God supplies; in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
12 carissimi nolite peregrinari in fervore qui ad temptationem vobis fit quasi novi aliquid vobis contingat
12
Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which comes upon you to prove you, as though something strange were happening to you.
13 sed communicantes Christi passionibus gaudete ut et in revelatione gloriae eius gaudeatis exultantes
13
But rejoice in so far as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed.
14 si exprobramini in nomine Christi beati quoniam gloriae Dei Spiritus in vobis requiescit
14
If you are reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.
15 nemo enim vestrum patiatur quasi homicida aut fur aut maledicus aut alienorum appetitor
15
But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a wrongdoer, or a mischief-maker;
16 si autem ut Christianus non erubescat glorificet autem Deum in isto nomine
16
yet if one suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but under that name let him glorify God.
17 quoniam tempus ut incipiat iudicium de domo Dei si autem primum a nobis qui finis eorum qui non credunt Dei evangelio
17
For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?
18 et si iustus vix salvatur impius et peccator ubi parebit
18
And "If the righteous man is scarcely saved, where will the impious and sinner appear?"
19 itaque et hii qui patiuntur secundum voluntatem Dei fideli creatori commendant animas suas in benefactis
19
Therefore let those who suffer according to God's will do right and entrust their souls to a faithful Creator.
