1 Peter 1:10-16

JuliaSmith(i) 10 For which salvation the prophets sought and inquired anxiously, they having prophesied of the grace to you: 11 Searching for whom or what time the Spirit of Christ which in them manifested, testifying beforehand the sufferings to Christ, and the glories after these. 12 To whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to us they were serving these things, which now have been again proclaimed to you by them having announced the good news in the Holy Spirit sent from heaven; into which angels eagerly desire to stoop and creep. 13 Wherefore having girded up the loins of your mind, living abstemiously, hope perfectly upon the grace brought to you in the revelation of Jesus Christ; 14 As children of obedience, not as formerly conforming yourselves to eager desire in your ignorance: 15 But according to the holy one calling you, also should ye yourselves be holy in all turning back; 16 For it has been written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
