1 Peter 4
American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)
2 Ref that ye no longer should live the rest of your time in flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
3 Ref For 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:
4 Ref wherein they think strange that ye run not with `them' into the same excess of riot, speaking evil of `of':
5 Ref who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 Ref For unto this end was the gospel preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
7 Ref But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore of sound mind, and be sober unto prayer:
8 Ref above all things being fervent in your love among yourselves; for love covereth a multitude of sins:
Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
2 Ref no more in the desires of men, but in the will of God, to live the rest of the time in the flesh;
3 Ref for sufficient to us `is' the past time of life the will of the nations to have wrought, having walked in lasciviousnesses, desires, excesses of wines, revelings, drinking-bouts, and unlawful idolatries,
4 Ref in which they think it strange -- your not running with them to the same excess of dissoluteness, speaking evil,
5 Ref who shall give an account to Him who is ready to judge living and dead,
6 Ref for for this also to dead men was good news proclaimed, that they may be judged, indeed, according to men in the flesh, and may live according to God in the spirit.
7 Ref And of all things the end hath come nigh; be sober-minded, then, and watch unto the prayers,
8 Ref and, before all things, to one another having the earnest love, because the love shall cover a multitude of sins;
King James Version (KJV)
2 Ref That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
3 Ref For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
4 Ref Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
5 Ref Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
6 Ref For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
7 Ref But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.
8 Ref And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
