2Therefore, having put aside all evil and all deceit and hypocrisies and envies and all slanders, 2as newborn babies, long for the pure rational milk so that by it you may grow up to salvation, 3if you have tasted that the Lord is kind, 4coming to him, a living stone, having been rejected by men, but chosen by God, precious, 5and you yourselves, like living stones, are being built up to be a spiritual house, for a holy priesthood to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6Therefore, it stands in scripture:

“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone,

chosen, precious.

And the one believing in him may certainly not be ashamed.”

7Therefore, the honor is to you, the ones believing. But to those not believing,

“A stone that the ones building rejected,

this has become the head of the corner,”

8and,

“A stone of stumbling

and a rock of offense.”

They stumble, disobeying the word to which also they were appointed. 9But you are a chosen family, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for possession, so that you might proclaim the praiseworthy actions of the one having called you out from darkness into his marvelous light, 10who once were “not a people,” but now “a people of God;” the ones “not having received mercy,” but now “having received mercy.”

11Beloved ones, I exhort you as foreigners and exiles to abstain from fleshly desires, which make war against the soul, 12keeping your behavior among the Gentiles good so that, in whatever they slander you as evildoers, by observing your good works, they might glorify God in the day of visitation.

13Be subjected to every human authority for the sake of the Lord, whether to a king as one having supreme authority 14or to governors as those being sent through him for punishment of evildoers and praise of doers of good; 15For this is the will of God: doing good to silence the ignorance of the foolish people; 16as free people and not having freedom as a covering of evil, but as servants of God. 17Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

18House slaves, be subjected to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle ones, but also to the crooked ones. 19For this finds favor—if anyone endures sorrows, suffering unjustly because of consciousness of God. 20For what credit is there if, sinning and being beaten, you will endure? But if doing good and suffering, you will endure, this finds favor with God. 21For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered on your behalf, leaving an example for you so that you might follow in his footsteps

22“who did no sin,

neither was deceit found in his mouth;”

23who being reviled, did not revile back; suffering, he did not threaten, but he entrusted himself to the one judging justly; 24who himself bore our sins in his body on the tree so that, having died to the sins, we might live for righteousness, by whose wounds you were healed. 25For you were like straying sheep, but now you have been turned back to the shepherd and overseer of your souls.
