1 Peter 1:19-21

Goodspeed(i) 19 but with precious blood, like that of an unblemished, spotless lamb, the blood of Christ, 20 who was predestined for this before the foundation of the world, but was revealed only at the end of the ages, 21 for the sake of you who through him trust in God, who raised him from the dead and showed him honor; and so your faith and hope rest on God.
