1 Peter 1:14-17
1:14 Like obedient children, do not comply with 1 the evil urges you used to follow in your ignorance, 2
1:15 but, like the Holy One who called you, become holy yourselves in all of your conduct,
1:16 for it is written, “You shall be holy, because I am holy.” 3
1:17 And if you address as Father the one who impartially judges according to each one’s work, live out the time of your temporary residence here 4 in reverence.
