1 Peter 1:17-21
New King James Version
17 And if you call on the Father, who (A)without partiality judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your [a]stay here in fear; 18 knowing that you were not redeemed with [b]corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, 19 but (B)with the precious blood of Christ, (C)as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. 20 (D)He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was [c]manifest (E)in these last times for you 21 who through Him believe in God, (F)who raised Him from the dead and (G)gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.
