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

7But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore of sound mind, and be sober unto prayer: 8above all things being fervent in your love among yourselves; for love covereth a multitude of sins: 9using hospitality one to another without murmuring: 10according as each hath received a gift, ministering it among yourselves, as good stewards of the manifold grace of Elokim; 11if any man speaketh, speaking as it were oracles of Elokim; if any man ministereth, ministering as of the strength which Elokim supplieth: that in all things Elokim may be glorified through [Prophet] Isa al-Masih [pbuh], whose is the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

12Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial among you, which cometh upon you to prove you, as though a strange thing happened unto you: 13but insomuch as ye are partakers of the sufferings of al-Masih, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory also ye may rejoice with exceeding joy. 14If ye are reproached for the name of al-Masih, blessed are ye; because the Spirit of glory and the Spirit of Elokim resteth upon you. 15For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil-doer, or as a meddler in other men’s matters: 16but if a man suffer as al-Masih's New Creation Submitter to G-d, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify Elokim in this name. 17For the time is come for judgment to begin at the house of Elokim: and if it begin first at us, what shall be the end of them that obey not the Holy Injil of Elokim? 18And if the righteous is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear? 19Wherefore let them also that suffer according to the will of Elokim commit their souls in well-doing unto a faithful Creator.
