— 1 Peter 1:17, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:”
“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: ”
“If you call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judges according to each man's work, pass the time of your living as foreigners here in reverent fear:”
“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 in reverence.”
“And if you invoke as Father him who, without respect of persons, judgeth according to every one's work: converse in fear during the time of your sojourning here.”
“And if you give the name of Father to him who, judging every man by his acts, has no respect for a man's position, then go in fear while you are on this earth:”
“And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:”
Be like sons of obedience, not conforming to the desires of your former ignorance,
but in accord with him who has called you: the Holy One. And in every behavior, you yourself must be holy,
for it is written: “You shall be holy, for I am Holy.”
And if you invoke as Father him who, without showing favoritism to persons, judges according to each one’s work, then act in fear during the time of your sojourning here.
For you know that it was not with corruptible gold or silver that you were redeemed away from your useless behavior in the traditions of your fathers,
but it was with the precious blood of Christ, an immaculate and undefiled lamb,
foreknown, certainly, before the foundation of the world, and made manifest in these latter times for your sake.
