5 : 13 Is any among you afflicted ? let him pray . Is any merry ? let him sing psalms .

5 : 14 Is any sick among you ? let him call for the elders of the church ; and let them pray over him , anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord : 5 : 15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick , and the Lord shall raise him up ; and if he have committed sins , they shall be forgiven him .

5 : 16 Confess your faults one to another , and pray one for another , that ye may be healed . The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much .

5 : 17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are , and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain : and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months .

5 : 18 And he prayed again , and the heaven gave rain , and the earth brought forth her fruit .

5 : 19 Brethren , if any of you do err from the truth , and one convert him ; 5 : 20 Let him know , that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death , and shall hide a multitude of sins .

### The First Epistle General of Peter

1 : 1 Peter , an apostle of Jesus Christ , to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus , Galatia , Cappadocia , Asia , and Bithynia , 1 : 2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father , through sanctification of the Spirit , unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ : Grace unto you , and peace , be multiplied .

1 : 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ , which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead , 1 : 4 To an inheritance incorruptible , and undefiled , and that fadeth not away , reserved in heaven for you , 1 : 5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time .

1 : 6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice , though now for a season , if need be , ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations : 1 : 7 That the trial of your faith , being much more precious than of gold that perisheth , though it be tried with fire , might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ : 1 : 8 Whom having not seen , ye love ; in whom , though now ye see him not , yet believing , ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory : 1 : 9 Receiving the end of your faith , even the salvation of your souls .

1 : 10 Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently , who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you :

1 : 11 Searching what , or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify , when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ , and the glory that should follow .

1 : 12 Unto whom it was revealed , that not unto themselves , but unto us they did minister the things , which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven ; which things the angels desire to look into .

1 : 13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind , be sober , and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ ; 1 : 14 As obedient children , not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance : 1 : 15 But as he which hath called you is holy , so be ye holy in all manner of conversation ;

1 : 16 Because it is written , Be ye holy ; for I am holy .

1 : 17 And if ye call on the Father , who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man ’ s work , pass the time of your sojourning here in fear : 1 : 18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things , as silver and gold , from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers ; 1 : 19 But with the precious blood of Christ , as of a lamb without blemish and without spot : 1 : 20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world , but was manifest in these last times for you , 1 : 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 .

1 : 22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren , see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently : 1 : 23 Being born again , not of corruptible seed , but of incorruptible , by the word of God , which liveth and abideth for ever .

1 : 24 For all flesh is as grass , and all the glory of man as the flower of grass . The grass withereth , and the flower thereof falleth away :

1 : 25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever . And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you .

2 : 1 Wherefore laying aside all malice , and all guile , and hypocrisies , and envies , all evil speakings , 2 : 2 As newborn babes , desire the sincere milk of the word , that ye may grow thereby : 2 : 3 If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious .

2 : 4 To whom coming , as unto a living stone , disallowed indeed of men , but chosen of God , and precious , 2 : 5 Ye also , as lively stones , are built up a spiritual house , an holy priesthood , to offer up spiritual sacrifices , acceptable to God by Jesus Christ .

2 : 6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture , Behold , I lay in Sion a chief corner stone , elect , precious : and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded .

2 : 7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious : but unto them which be disobedient , the stone which the builders disallowed , the same is made the head of the corner , 2 : 8 And a stone of stumbling , and a rock of offence , even to them which stumble at the word , being disobedient : whereunto also they were appointed .

2 : 9 But ye are a chosen generation , a royal priesthood , an holy nation , a peculiar people ; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light ;

2 : 10 Which in time past were not a people , but are now the people of God : which had not obtained mercy , but now have obtained mercy .

2 : 11 Dearly beloved , I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims , abstain from fleshly lusts , which war against the soul ; 2 : 12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles : that , whereas they speak against you as evildoers , they may by your good works , which they shall behold , glorify God in the day of visitation .

2 : 13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord ’ s sake : whether it be to the king , as supreme ; 2 : 14 Or unto governors , as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers , and for the praise of them that do well .

2 : 15 For so is the will of God , that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men : 2 : 16 As free , and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness , but as the servants of God .

2 : 17 Honour all men . Love the brotherhood . Fear God . Honour the king .

2 : 18 Servants , be subject to your masters with all fear ; not only to the good and gentle , but also to the froward .

2 : 19 For this is thankworthy , if a man for conscience toward God endure grief , suffering wrongfully .

2 : 20 For what glory is it , if , when ye be buffeted for your faults , ye shall take it patiently ? but if , when ye do well , and suffer for it , ye take it patiently , this is acceptable with God .

2 : 21 For even hereunto were ye called : because Christ also suffered for us , leaving us an example , that ye should follow his steps : 2 : 22 Who did no sin , neither was guile found in his mouth : 2 : 23 Who , when he was reviled , reviled not again ; when he suffered , he threatened not ; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously : 2 : 24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree , that we , being dead to sins , should live unto righteousness : by whose stripes ye were healed .

2 : 25 For ye were as sheep going astray ; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls .

3 : 1 Likewise , ye wives , be in subjection to your own husbands ; that , if any obey not the word , they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives ; 3 : 2 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear .

3 : 3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair , and of wearing of gold , or of putting on of apparel ; 3 : 4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart , in that which is not corruptible , even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit , which is in the sight of God of great price .

3 : 5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women also , who trusted in God , adorned themselves , being in subjection unto their own husbands : 3 : 6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham , calling him lord : whose daughters ye are , as long as ye do well , and are not afraid with any amazement .

3 : 7 Likewise , ye husbands , dwell with them according to knowledge , giving honour unto the wife , as unto the weaker vessel , and as being heirs together of the grace of life ; that your prayers be not hindered .

3 : 8 Finally , be ye all of one mind , having compassion one of another , love as brethren , be pitiful , be courteous : 3 : 9 Not rendering evil for evil , or railing for railing : but contrariwise blessing ; knowing that ye are thereunto called , that ye should inherit a blessing .

3 : 10 For he that will love life , and see good days , let him refrain his tongue from evil , and his lips that they speak no guile : 3 : 11 Let him eschew evil , and do good ; let him seek peace , and ensue it .

3 : 12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous , and his ears are open unto their prayers : but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil .

3 : 13 And who is he that will harm you , if ye be followers of that which is good ? 3 : 14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness ’ sake , happy are ye : and be not afraid of their terror , neither be troubled ;

3 : 15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts : and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear : 3 : 16 Having a good conscience ; that , whereas they speak evil of you , as of evildoers , they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ .

3 : 17 For it is better , if the will of God be so , that ye suffer for well doing , than for evil doing .

3 : 18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins , the just for the unjust , that he might bring us to God , being put to death in the flesh , but quickened by the Spirit : 3 : 19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison ; 3 : 20 Which sometime were disobedient , when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah , while the ark was a preparing , wherein few , that is , eight souls were saved by water .

3 : 21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us ( not the putting away of the filth of the flesh , but the answer of a good conscience toward God , ) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ : 3 : 22 Who is gone into heaven , and is on the right hand of God ; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him .

4 : 1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh , arm yourselves likewise with the same mind : for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin ; 4 : 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 .

4 : 3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles , when we walked in lasciviousness , lusts , excess of wine , revellings , banquetings , and abominable idolatries : 4 : 4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot , speaking evil of you : 4 : 5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead .

4 : 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 .

4 : 7 But the end of all things is at hand : be ye therefore sober , and watch unto prayer .

4 : 8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves : for charity shall cover the multitude of sins .

4 : 9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging .

4 : 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 .

4 : 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 praise and dominion for ever and ever . Amen .

4 : 12 Beloved , think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you , as though some strange thing happened unto you : 4 : 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 .

4 : 14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ , happy are ye ; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you : on their part he is evil spoken of , but on your part he is glorified .

4 : 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 .

4 : 16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian , let him not be ashamed ; but let him glorify God on this behalf .

4 : 17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God : and if it first begin at us , what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God ? 4 : 18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved , where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear ? 4 : 19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing , as unto a faithful Creator .

5 : 1 The elders which are among you I exhort , who am also an elder , and a witness of the sufferings of Christ , and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed : 5 : 2 Feed the flock of God which is among you , taking the oversight thereof , not by constraint , but willingly ; not for filthy lucre , but of a ready mind ; 5 : 3 Neither as being lords over God ’ s heritage , but being ensamples to the flock .

5 : 4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear , ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away .

5 : 5 Likewise , ye younger , submit yourselves unto the elder . Yea , all of you be subject one to another , and be clothed with humility : for God resisteth the proud , and giveth grace to the humble .

5 : 6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God , that he may exalt you in due time : 5 : 7 Casting all your care upon him ; for he careth for you .

5 : 8 Be sober , be vigilant ; because your adversary the devil , as a roaring lion , walketh about , seeking whom he may devour : 5 : 9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith , knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world .

5 : 10 But the God of all grace , who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus , after that ye have suffered a while , make you perfect , stablish , strengthen , settle you .

5 : 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever . Amen .

5 : 12 By Silvanus , a faithful brother unto you , as I suppose , I have written briefly , exhorting , and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand .

5 : 13 The church that is at Babylon , elected together with you , saluteth you ; and so doth Marcus my son .

5 : 14 Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity . Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus . Amen .

### The Second General Epistle of Peter

1 : 1 Simon Peter , a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ , to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ : 1 : 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God , and of Jesus our Lord , 1 : 3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness , through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue : 1 : 4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises : that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature , having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust .

1 : 5 And beside this , giving all diligence , add to your faith virtue ; and to virtue knowledge ; 1 : 6 And to knowledge temperance ; and to temperance patience ; and to patience godliness ; 1 : 7 And to godliness brotherly kindness ; and to brotherly kindness charity .

1 : 8 For if these things be in you , and abound , they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ .

1 : 9 But he that lacketh these things is blind , and cannot see afar off , and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins .

1 : 10 Wherefore the rather , brethren , give diligence to make your calling and election sure : for if ye do these things , ye shall never fall : 1 : 11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ .

1 : 12 Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things , though ye know them , and be established in the present truth .

1 : 13 Yea , I think it meet , as long as I am in this tabernacle , to stir you up by putting you in remembrance ; 1 : 14 Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle , even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me .

1 : 15 Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance .

1 : 16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables , when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ , but were eyewitnesses of his majesty .

1 : 17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory , when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory , This is my beloved Son , in whom I am well pleased .

1 : 18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard , when we were with him in the holy mount .

1 : 19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy ; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed , as unto a light that shineth in a dark place , until the day dawn , and the day star arise in your hearts : 1 : 20 Knowing this first , that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation .

1 : 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man : but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost .

2 : 1 But there were false prophets also among the people , even as there shall be false teachers among you , who privily shall bring in damnable heresies , even denying the Lord that bought them , and bring upon themselves swift destruction .

2 : 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways ; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of .

2 : 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you : whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not , and their damnation slumbereth not .

2 : 4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned , but cast them down to hell , and delivered them into chains of darkness , to be reserved unto judgment ; 2 : 5 And spared not the old world , but saved Noah the eighth person , a preacher of righteousness , bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly ; 2 : 6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow , making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly ; 2 : 7 And delivered just Lot , vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked : 2 : 8 ( For that righteous man dwelling among them , in seeing and hearing , vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds ; ) 2 : 9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations , and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished : 2 : 10 But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness , and despise government . Presumptuous are they , selfwilled , they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities .

2 : 11 Whereas angels , which are greater in power and might , bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord .

2 : 12 But these , as natural brute beasts , made to be taken and destroyed , speak evil of the things that they understand not ; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption ; 2 : 13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness , as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time . Spots they are and blemishes , sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you ; 2 : 14 Having eyes full of adultery , and that cannot cease from sin ; beguiling unstable souls : an heart they have exercised with covetous practices ; cursed children : 2 : 15 Which have forsaken the right way , and are gone astray , following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor , who loved the wages of unrighteousness ; 2 : 16 But was rebuked for his iniquity : the dumb ass speaking with man ’ s voice forbad the madness of the prophet .

2 : 17 These are wells without water , clouds that are carried with a tempest ; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever .

2 : 18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity , they allure through the lusts of the flesh , through much wantonness , those that were clean escaped from them who live in error .

2 : 19 While they promise them liberty , they themselves are the servants of corruption : for of whom a man is overcome , of the same is he brought in bondage .

2 : 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ , they are again entangled therein , and overcome , the latter end is worse with them than the beginning .

2 : 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness , than , after they have known it , to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them .

2 : 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb , The dog is turned to his own vomit again ; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire .

3 : 1 This second epistle , beloved , I now write unto you ; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance : 3 : 2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets , and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour : 3 : 3 Knowing this first , that there shall come in the last days scoffers , walking after their own lusts , 3 : 4 And saying , Where is the promise of his coming ? for since the fathers fell asleep , all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation .

3 : 5 For this they willingly are ignorant of , that by the word of God the heavens were of old , and the earth standing out of the water and in the water : 3 : 6 Whereby the world that then was , being overflowed with water , perished : 3 : 7 But the heavens and the earth , which are now , by the same word are kept in store , reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men .

3 : 8 But , beloved , be not ignorant of this one thing , that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years , and a thousand years as one day .

3 : 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise , as some men count slackness ; but is longsuffering to us-ward , not willing that any should perish , but that all should come to repentance .

3 : 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night ; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise , and the elements shall melt with fervent heat , the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up .
