The First Letter of Peter 1: 18-25

1:18 Scitis enim quod non corruptibili auro vel argento, quod redempti estis ab inutilibus moribus vestris in traditionibus patrum vestrorum.,
1:19 sed erat pretioso sanguine Christi, immaculatus et immaculatus agnus,
1:20 praescius, certe, ante mundi constitutionem, et in his temporibus propter vos manifestatum est.
1:21 Per ipsum, fuisti fidelis, qui suscitavit eum a mortuis et dedit illi gloriam, ut sit fides vestra et spes in Deo.
1:22 So chastise your souls with the obedience of charity, in fraternal love, and love one another from a simple heart, attentively.
1:23 For you have been born again, not from corruptible seed, but from what is incorruptible, from the Word of God, living and remaining for all eternity.
1:24 For all flesh is like the grass and all its glory is like the flower of the grass. The grass withers and its flower falls away.
1:25 But the Word of the Lord endures for eternity. And this is the Word that has been evangelized to you.
