1:13 所以要束上你们心思的腰,谨慎自守,全然寄望于耶稣基督显现的时候,所带给你们的恩。
Therefore girding up the loins of your mind and being sober, set your hope perfectly on the grace being brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
1:14 你们是顺从的儿女,不要模仿从前无知之时所放纵的私欲;
As children of obedience, do not be fashioned according to the former lusts in your ignorance;
1:15 却要照着那呼召你们的圣者,在一切行事为人上,也成为圣的;
But according to the Holy One who called you, you yourselves also be holy in all your manner of life;
1:16 因为经上记着:“你们要圣别,因为我是圣别的。”
Because it is written, "You shall be holy because I am holy.''
1:17 你们既称那不偏待人,按各人行为审判的为父,就当在你们寄居的时日中,凭着敬畏行事为人;
And if you call as Father the One who without respect of persons judges according to each one's work, pass the time of your sojourning in fear,
1:18 知道你们得赎,脱离你们祖宗所传流虚妄的生活,不是用能坏的金银等物,
Knowing that it was not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, that you were redeemed from your vain manner of life handed down from your fathers,
1:19 乃是用基督的宝血,如同无瑕疵无玷污的羔羊之血。
But with precious blood, as of a Lamb without blemish and without spot, the blood of Christ;
1:20 基督在创世以前,就预先被神知道,却在诸时期的末后,才为你们显现出来;
Who was foreknown before the foundation of the world but has been manifested in the last of times for your sake,
1:21 你们藉着祂,信入那叫祂从死人中复活,又给祂荣耀的神,叫你们的信和盼望都在于神。
Who through Him believe into God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.
1:22 你们既因顺从真理,洁净了自己的魂,以致爱弟兄没有假冒,就当从清洁的心里彼此热切相爱;
Since you have purified your souls by your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned brotherly love, love one another from a pure heart fervently,
1:23 你们蒙了重生,不是由于能坏的种子,乃是由于不能坏的种子,是藉着神活而常存的话。
Having been regenerated not of corruptible seed but of incorruptible, through the living and abiding word of God.
1:24 因为“凡属肉体的人尽都如草,他一切的荣美都像草上的花;草必枯干,花必凋谢,
For "all flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass has withered, and the flower has fallen off,
1:25 惟有主的话永远长存。”所传给你们的福音就是这话。
But the word of the Lord abides forever.'' And this is the word which has been announced to you as the gospel.
