1 Peter 2:22

2:22 He ¹  committed no sin nor was deceit found in his mouth. ² 

1 Peter 5:6

5:6 And God will exalt you in due time, ³  if you humble yourselves under his mighty hand ⁴ 

---

¹ tn Grk “who,” referring to Christ and applying the quotations from Isa 53 to him. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

² sn A quotation from Isa 53:9.

³ tn Grk “in time,” but connoting “the proper time, when the time is right” as in Matt 24:45; Luke 12:42.

⁴ tn Grk “Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, so that in due time he may exalt you.” The sentence was rearranged so that the English reader could more clearly see the connection between “casting” (v. 7) and “humble” (v. 6).
