This letter comes from Peter, apostle of Jesus Christ, and is sent to God's chosen people: exiles scattered throughout the provinces of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. 1Pe 2:9You were chosen by God the Father in his wisdom, made holy by the Spirit, so that you might obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood. May you have grace and peace more and more!Eph 1:4; Eph 1:7; Heb 12:24

Praise God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! Through his great mercy we have been born again and given a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Rom 6:4; Eph 1:3This inheritance is eternal, it never spoils or fades, and it is kept safe in heaven for you. 2Ti 4:8Through your trust in him, God will protect you by his power until salvation arrives—the salvation that is ready to be revealed at the last day.Jhn 10:28

So be glad about this, even though you may be sad for a short while as you endure various trials. Mat 5:12; 2Co 4:17These prove that your trust in God is genuine, just as fire is used to prove if gold is genuine—even though that too can be destroyed—and your faith is more valuable than gold! In this way your trust in God will be recognized and you will receive praise, glory, and honor when Jesus Christ appears.Job 23:10; Pro 17:3; Zec 13:9

You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you cannot see him now, you trust in him and you're filled with wonderful, indescribable happiness. Jhn 20:29; 2Co 5:7Your reward for trusting in him is that you will be saved! Rom 6:23It was this salvation that the prophets searched for and investigated when they spoke of the grace that was prepared for you. Gen 49:10; Dan 2:44; Dan 9:24; Mat 13:17; 2Pe 1:21They tried to find out when and how this would take place, for the Spirit of Christ inside them spoke clearly about Christ's sufferings and glory to come. Psa 22:6; Isa 53:3It was explained to them that they were not doing this for themselves, but for you—since what they spoke about you've now learned from those who shared the good news with you by the Holy Spirit that heaven sent. Even the angels are eager to find out about all this!Eph 3:10; 1Ti 3:16

Make sure your minds are in gear. Be clear-headed. Fix your hope exclusively on the grace you'll be given when Jesus is revealed. Luk 12:35Live like children who do what they're told. Don't allow yourselves to be shaped by your former sinful desires when you didn't know any better. Act 17:30Now you need to be holy in everything you do, just as the one who called you is holy. Luk 1:75As Scripture says, “You are to be holy, for I am holy.”Lev 19:2; Lev 11:44

Since you call him Father, and recognize he judges everyone impartially based on what they do, take your time here on earth seriously, respecting him.Deu 10:17

You already know that you were not set free from your pointless way of living that you inherited from your forefathers by things that don't have lasting value, like silver or gold. You were set free by the costly blood of Christ, who was like a lamb with no flaw or defect.1Jn 1:7; 1Co 6:20; Eph 1:7; Heb 9:14; Rev 1:5

He was chosen before the world was created, but he was revealed in these last days for your benefit. Through him you trust in God who raised him from the dead, and glorified him, so that you could have confidence and hope in God. Now that you've dedicated yourselves by following the truth, love each other sincerely like a true family. 1Pe 2:17You've been born again, not the product of a mortal “seed,” but immortal, through the living, eternal word of God. Jas 1:18For: “All people are like grass, and all their glory like wildflowers. The grass withers and the flowers fall. But the word of the Lord remains forever.” This word is the good news that was explained to you.Isa 40:6
