^{14 Ref} as children of obedience, not fashioning yourselves according to your former lusts in `the time of' your ignorance:

^{15 Ref} but like as he who called you is holy, be ye yourselves also holy in all manner of living;

^{16 Ref} because it is written, Ye shall be holy; for I am holy.

^{17 Ref} And if ye call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to each man's work, pass the time of your sojourning in fear:

^{18 Ref} knowing that ye were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from your vain manner of life handed down from your fathers;

^{19 Ref} but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, `even the blood' of Christ:

^{20 Ref} who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was manifested at the end of times for your sake,

^{21 Ref} who through him are believers in God, that raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.
