The First Letter of Peter    4: 7-13

4:7 But the end of everything draws near. And so, be prudent, and be vigilant in your prayers.
4:8 But, before all things, have a constant mutual charity among yourselves. For love covers a multitude of sins.
4:9 Show hospitality to one another without complaining.
4:10 Just as each of you has received grace, minister in the same way to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
4:11 When anyone speaks, it should be like words of God. When anyone ministers, it should be from the virtue that God provides, so that in all things God may be honored through Jesus Christ. To him is glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
4:12 Most beloved, do not choose to sojourn in the passion which is a temptation to you, as if something new might happen to you.
4:13 But instead, commune in the Passion of Christ, and be glad that, when his glory will be revealed, you too may rejoice with exultation.
