"And yearn like newborn infants for pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up to salvation,"
— 1 Peter 2:2, NET Bible
“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:”
“as newborn babes, long for the spiritual milk which is without guile, that ye may grow thereby unto salvation; ”
“as newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the Word, that you may grow thereby,”
“As newborn babes, desire the rational milk without guile, that thereby you may grow unto salvation:”
“Be full of desire for the true milk of the word, as babies at their mothers' breasts, so that you may go on to salvation;”
“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:”
So get rid of all evil and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander.
And yearn like newborn infants for pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up to salvation,
if you have experienced the Lord’s kindness.
A Living Stone, a Chosen People So as you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but chosen and precious in God’s sight,
you yourselves, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood and to offer spiritual sacrifices that are acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
