1 Therefore, since Christ has suffered *for us 83% ¦ for you MSS 6.3% ¦ — CT 2.8%for us in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same mentality, because whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, 2 so as to live his remaining time in the flesh no longer for the evil desires of men, but for the will of God. 3 For †we have spent enough of our … doing 47% ¦ you have spent enough of your … doing 𝔐pt ANT HF PCK 41.5% ¦ enough … has been spent doing CT 11.2%we have spent enough of our ‡lives ¦ time CT PCKlives doing what the Gentiles like to do, walking in sensual indulgences, evil desires, excesses of wine, revelries, drinking bouts, and illicit idolatries. 4 They are surprised when you do not run with them into the same flood of debauchery, so they revile you. 5 But they will give an account to him who §is ready to judge ¦ readily judges WHis ready to judge the living and the dead. 6 For this is the reason the gospel was preached even to the dead, so that, though they have been judged in the flesh as men are, they might live in the spirit as God does.

12 Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial that has come upon you to test you, as though a strange thing were happening to you. 13 But insofar as you share in the sufferings of Christ, rejoice, so that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. 14 If you are reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of *glory 71.5% ¦ glory and of power ANT 15.7% • MSS 6.6%glory and of God †rests ¦ has come to rest PCKrests upon you. ‡On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified. ¦ — CTOn their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified. 15 None of you should suffer as a murderer, thief, evildoer, or meddler, 16 but if anyone suffers as a Christian, he should not be ashamed, but should glorify God in this §matter ¦ name NA27 SBL TH WHmatter. 17 For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God, and if it begins first with us, what will be the outcome for those who are disobedient to the gospel of God? 18 And,
