Das Wort Bin Ich

The First Epistle General of Peter

World English Bible Catholic :: King James Version

- Kapitel 2 -

(Isaiah 28:14–22; 1 Corinthians 3:10–15; Ephesians 2:19–22)
1
Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,
2
as newborn babies, long for the pure spiritual milk, that with it you may grow,
3
if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
4
Come to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious.
5
You also as living stones are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
6
Because it is contained in Scripture,Behold,(a) I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen and precious. He who believes in him will not be disappointed.”(b)
7
For you who believe therefore is the honor, but for those who are disobedient,The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone,”(c)
8
and,a stumbling stone and a rock of offense.”(d) For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.
9
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
10
In the past, you were not a people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
11
Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims to abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,
12
having good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good works and glorify God in the day of visitation.

Submission to Authorities

(Romans 13:1–7)
13
Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lords sake: whether to the king, as supreme,
14
or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to those who do well.
15
For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.
16
Live as free people, yet not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.
17
Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.
18
Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.
19
For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God.
20
For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.

Christ’s Example of Suffering

(Isaiah 53:1–8)
21
For you were called to this, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you (e) an example, that you should follow his steps,
22
who didn’t sin, “neither was deceit found in his mouth.”(f)
23
When he was cursed, he didn’t curse back. When he suffered, he didn’t threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously.
24
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.(g)
25
For you were going astray like sheep; but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer (h) of your souls.

(Isaiah 28:14–22; 1 Corinthians 3:10–15; Ephesians 2:19–22)
1
Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,
2
As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:
3
If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
4
To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
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.
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.
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,
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.
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:
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.
11
Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
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.

Submission to Authorities

(Romans 13:1–7)
13
Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
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.
15
For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
16
As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
17
Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
18
Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
19
For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
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.

Christ’s Example of Suffering

(Isaiah 53:1–8)
21
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
22
Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
23
Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
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.
25
For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
