Verse 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: Verse 14. As obedient children, not fashioning your selves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: Verse 15. But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Verse 16. Because it is written, Be ye holy, for I am holy. Verse 17. And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every mans work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear. Verse 18. For as much 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. Verse 19. But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a Lamb without blemish, and without spot, Verse 20. Who verily was fore-ordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you. Verse 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. Verse 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, Verse 23. Being borne again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. Verse 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; Verse 25. But the word of the Lord endureth for ever: and this is the word which by the Gospel is preached unto you.
