1. Peter 4 – Studienbibel

1 Forasmuch then as3767 Christ5547 hath suffered3958 for5228 us2257 in the flesh4561, arm3695 yourselves5210 likewise2532 with the same846 mind1771: for3754 he that hath suffered3958 in1722 the flesh4561 hath ceased3973 from sin266; 2 That1519 he980 no longer3371 should live980 the rest1954 of his time5550 in1722 the flesh4561 to the lusts1939 of men444, but235 to the will2307 of God2316. 3 For1063 the time5550 past3928 of our life979 may suffice713 us2254 to have wrought2716 the will2307 of the Gentiles1484, when we walked4198 in1722 lasciviousness766, lusts1939, excess of wine3632, revellings2970, banquetings4224, and2532 abominable111 idolatries1495:

4 Wherein1722 3739 they think it strange3579 that ye5216 run4936 not3361 with them to1519 the same846 excess401 of riot810, speaking evil of987 you: 5 Who3739 shall give591 account3056 to him that is2192 ready2093 to judge2919 the quick2198 and2532 the dead3498. 6 For1063 for1519 this cause5124 was the gospel preached2097 also2532 to them that are dead3498, that2443 they might be judged2919 3303 according to2596 men444 in the flesh4561, but1161 live2198 according to2596 God2316 in the spirit4151.

7 But1161 the end5056 of all things3956 is at hand1448: be ye4993 therefore3767 sober4993, and2532 watch3525 unto1519 prayer4335. 8 And1161 above4253 all things3956 have2192 fervent1618 charity26 among1519 yourselves1438: for3754 charity26 shall cover2572 the multitude4128 of sins266.¹ 9 Use hospitality5382 one to another1519 240 without427 grudging1112. 10 As2531 every man1538 hath received2983 the gift5486, even so minister1247 the same846 one to another1519 1438, as5613 good2570 stewards3623 of the manifold4164 grace5485 of God2316. 11 If any man1536 speak2980, let him speak as5613 the oracles3051 of God2316; if any man1536 minister1247, let him do it as5613 of1537 the ability2479 which3739 God2316 giveth5524: that2443 God2316 in1722 all things3956 may be glorified1392 through1223 Jesus2424 Christ5547, to whom3739 be2076 praise1391 and2532 dominion2904 for1519 ever165 and ever165. Amen281.

12 Beloved27, think it3579 not3361 strange3579 concerning the5213 fiery trial4451 which1722 is1096 to4314 try3986 you5213, as5613 though some strange thing3581 happened4819 unto you5213: 13 But235 rejoice5463, inasmuch as2526 ye are partakers2841 of Christ's5547 sufferings3804; that2443, when1722 his846 glory1391 shall be revealed602, ye may be glad5463 also2532 with exceeding joy21. 14 If1487 ye be reproached3679 for1722 the name3686 of Christ5547, happy3107 are ye; for3754 the spirit4151 of glory1391 and2532 of God2316 resteth373 upon1909 you5209: on2596 3303 their part846 he is evil spoken of987, but1161 on2596 your part5209 he is glorified1392. 15 But1063 let3958 none3361 5100 of you5216 suffer3958 as5613 a murderer5406, or2228 as a thief2812, or2228 as an evildoer2555, or2228 as5613 a busybody in other men's matters244. 16 Yet1161 if1487 any man suffer as5613 a Christian5546, let him153 not3361 be ashamed153; but1161 let him glorify1392 God2316 on1722 this5129 behalf3313. 17 For3754 the time2540 is come that judgment2917 must begin756 at575 the house3624 of God2316: and1161 if1487 it first4412 begin at575 us2257, what5101 shall the end5056 be of them that obey not544 the gospel2098 of God2316? 18 And2532 if1487 the righteous1342 scarcely3433 be saved4982, where4226 shall5316 the ungodly765 and2532 the sinner268 appear5316? 19 Wherefore5620 2532 let3908 them that suffer3958 according to2596 the will2307 of God2316 commit the keeping3908 of their1438 souls5590 to him in1722 well doing16, as5613 unto a faithful4103 Creator2939.
