The Holy Bible, English Standard Version

1 Peter 2:15-17
<< 1 Peter 1 | 1 Peter 2 | 1 Peter 3 >>

15 For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. 16 Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants [1] of God. 17 Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor.
