1 PETER, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the chosen ones and pilgrims, scattered throughout Pontus, Ga-la’tia, Cap-pado’cia, Asia Minor and Bi-thyn’i-a, 2 Who have been chosen by the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, to be obedient and to sprinkle the blood of our LORD Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace, be multiplied. 3 Blessed be God, the Father of our LORD Jesus Christ, who by his abundant mercy has again renewed us spiritually to a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 To an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, that does not fade away, and is prepared in heaven for you, 5 While you are kept by the power of God through faith, for the life eternal which is ready to be revealed at the last time. 1 Peter 1:1-5, Lamsa Bible.
