JPS_ASV_Byz(i)
1 Forasmuch then as Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm ye yourselves also with the same mind, for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin,
2 that ye no longer should live the rest of your time in flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
3 For the time of life past sufficeth us to work the desire of the Gentiles, and to have walked in lasciviousness, lusts, winebibbings, revellings, carousings, and abominable idolatries:
4 wherein they think strange that ye run not with them into the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
5 who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 For unto this end was the gospel preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
