1 Christ, therefore, having suffered in flesh, do ye also arm yourselves with the same mind; because he who suffered in flesh has ceased from sin;
2 that ye no longer live the rest of your time in the flesh to the desires of men, but to the will of God.
3 For the time past is sufficient to have wrought the will of the gentiles, having walked in wantonness, lusts, wine-bibbings, revelings, carousings, and impious idolatries;
4 at which they are surprised, since ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you;
5 who shall render an account to Him Who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 For to this end was the Gospel proclaimed even to the dead, that they might, indeed, be judged according to men in flesh, but live according to God in spirit.
7 But the end of all things has drawn near; be ye, therefore, of sound mind, and be sober unto prayers;
8 above all things, having fervent love among yourselves, because love covers a multitude of sins;
9 being hospitable to one another, without murmuring;
10 according as each one received a gift, ministering it among yourselves, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God;
11 if anyone speaks, as uttering the oracles of God; if anyone ministers, ministering as of the strength which God supplieth; that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ; to Whom is the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
