4:1 Leaving worldly desires behind

4Since the messiah suffered physically, you all also should cultivate the same intention, because anyone who suffers physically stops sinning 2so that they can live their remaining physical lives obeying God’s will instead of worldly lusts 3because enough time has been spent listening to worldly advice and having pursued immorality, lusts, drunkenness, carousing, drinking parties, and repulsive idolatry. 4The unbelievers will be surprised that you’re all not joining them in that unrestrained, wild living and they’ll mock you, 5but they will need to give an account for their actions to the one who is ready to judge both the living and the dead. 6That’s why the good message was preached even to the dead, so that people might judge them by earthly standards

7The end of everything is getting close, so make good decisions and be serious in prayer, 8[ref]and more than anything, display genuine love to each other because love triumphs over many sins. 9Show hospitality to each other without grumbling. 10Whatever gift that each person has received, they should use it to serve the others as good managers of the various forms of grace that God has given us. 11Anyone who shares wisdom that came from God or uses the strength that God has given them to serve others needs to be honouring God through Yeshua the messiah. He’s the one who deserves the honour and the power all through the ages.

4Therefore chosen_one/messiah having_suffered in_the_flesh, also you_all arm the same intention, because the one having_suffered in_the_flesh has_ceased from_sin, 2in_order that to_live the remaining time in the_flesh no_longer to_lusts of_the_people, but to_the_will of_god.
3For/Because the having_passed_by time is sufficient to_have_produced the counsel of_the pagans, having_pursued in wantonness, lusts, drunkenness, carousing, drinking_parties, and unlawful idolatries.
4With which they_are_being_surprised, not running_together of_you_all into the same of_ the _intemperance pouring_out, slandering, 5who will_be_giving_back an_account to_the one ready to_judge the_living and the_dead.
6For/Because to this end was_good_message_preached even to_the_dead, in_order_that they_may_be_judged on_one_hand according_to humans in_the_flesh, on_the_other_hand may_be_living according_to god in_the_spirit.
7And the end of_all things has_neared.
Therefore be_sensible and be_sober for the_prayers,
8before all things, having the earnest love among yourselves, because love is_covering a_multitude of_sins, 9be hospitable to one_another apart_from grumbling, 10each one as he_received a_gift, serving it to yourselves, as good managers of_the_various grace of_god.
11If anyone is_speaking, as oracles of_god, if anyone is_serving, as of strength of_which the god is_supplying, in_order_that in all things the god may_be_being_glorified through Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) chosen_one/messiah, to_whom is the glory and the power to the ages of_the ages.
Truly.

4:12 The suffering of believers

12Dear friends, don’t be surprised as the fiery trials that you all will have to face as a test, as though it’s something unusual that’s happening to you, 13but rather as you all share in the sufferings of the messiah, stay positive so that you will all be happy as you’re also glad to see his honour revealed. 14You all will be blessed if you are derided in the name of the messiah because God’s spirit rests on you all—the spirit that honours him. 15None of you should suffer persecution because you’re a murderer or a thief or a troublemaker or nosey-parker, 16but if you suffer for being a follower of the messiah, then there’s no need to feel ashamed but instead be praising God in that name.

17It’s time to begin judgement and to begin with God’s people, and if we’re judged first, what will the outcome be for those who refuse to believe in God’s good message? 18[ref]Yes,

‘if it’s difficult for godly people to be saved,

what will it be like for the ungodly and for sinners.’

19So for anyone who’s suffering according to God’s will, let them entrust the well-being of their souls to the faithful creator.


12Beloved, be_ not _being_surprised at_the fiery_trial among you_all for trial to_you_all becoming, as_though of_a_stranger happening to_you_all, 13but as you_all_are_sharing in_the sufferings of_the chosen_one/messiah, be_rejoicing in_order_that you_all_may_be_elated also exulting in the revelation of_the glory of_him.
14You_are blessed if you_all_are_being_derided in the_name of_chosen_one/messiah, because the the spirit of_the of_glory and of_ the _god, is_resting on you_all.
15For/Because not let_ anyone _be_suffering of_you_all as a_murderer, or a_thief, or an_evildoer, or as a_meddler.
16But if as a_follower_of_the_messiah, not let_him_be_being_ashamed, but let_him_be_glorifying the god in the this name.
17Because the time it_is which to_begin the judgment from the house of_ the _god, and if first from us, what will_be the outcome of_the ones disbelieving in_the good_message of_ the _god?
18And if the righteous is_being_saved with_difficulty, where will_be_appearing the ungodly and sinner?
19So_then also the ones suffering according_to the will of_ the _god, let_them_be_entrusting the souls of_them to_a_faithful creator in welldoing.
