1 Peter 2

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NOVA VULGATA
1 Therefore, set aside all malice and all deceitfulness, as well as falseness and envy and every detraction.	1 Deponentes igitur omnem ma litiam et omnem dolum et simu lationes etinvidias et omnes detractiones,
2 Like newborn infants, desire the milk of reasonableness without guile, so that by this you may increase unto salvation,	2 sicut modo geniti infantes, rationale sinedolo lac concupiscite, ut in eo crescatis in salutem,
3 if it is true that you have tasted that the Lord is sweet.	3 si gustastis quoniamdulcis Dominus.
4 And approaching him as if he were a living stone, rejected by men, certainly, but elect and honored by God,	4 Ad quem accedentes, lapidem vivum, ab hominibus quidemreprobatum, coram Deo autem electum, pretiosum,
5 be also yourselves like living stones, built upon him, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, so as to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.	5 et ipsi tamquam lapides viviaedificamini domus spiritalis in sacerdotium sanctum offerre spiritales hostiasacceptabiles Deo per Iesum Christum.
6 Because of this, Scripture asserts: “Behold, I am setting in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious. And whoever will have believed in him will not be confounded.”	6 Propter quod continet Scriptura: “ Ecce pono in Sion lapidem angularem, electum, pretiosum; et, qui credit in eo, non confundetur ”.
7 Therefore, to you who believe, he is honor. But to those who do not believe, the stone which the builders have rejected, the same has been made into the head of the corner,	7 Vobis igitur honor credentibus; non credentibus autem “ Lapis, quem reprobaverunt aedificantes, hic factus est in caput anguli ”
8 and a stone of offense, and a rock of scandal, to those who are offended by the Word; neither do they believe, though they also have been built upon him.	8 et “ lapis offensionis et petra scandali ”; qui offendunt verbo noncredentes, in quod et positi sunt.
9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, an acquired people, so that you may announce the virtues of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.	9 Vos autem genus electum, regale sacerdotium, gens sancta, populus inacquisitionem, ut virtutes annuntietis eius, qui de tenebris vos vocavit inadmirabile lumen suum:
10 Though in past times you were not a people, yet now you are the people of God. Though you had not obtained mercy, yet now you have obtained mercy.	10 qui aliquando non populus, nunc autem populus Dei; quinon consecuti misericordiam, nunc autem misericordiam consecuti.
11 Most beloved, I beg you, as new arrivals and sojourners, to abstain from carnal desires, which battle against the soul.	11 Carissimi, obsecro tamquam advenas et peregrinos abstinere vos a carnalibusdesideriis, quae militant adversus animam;
12 Keep your behavior among the Gentiles to what is good, so that, when they slander you as if you were evildoers, they may, by the good works that are seen in you, glorify God on the day of visitation.	12 conversationem vestram intergentes habentes bonam, ut in eo, quod detrectant de vobis tamquam demalefactoribus, ex bonis operibus considerantes glorificent Deum in dievisitationis.
13 Therefore, be subject to every human creature because of God, whether it is to the king as preeminent,	13 Subiecti estote omni humanae creaturae propter Dominum: sive regi quasipraecellenti
14 or to leaders as having been sent from him for vindication over evildoers, it is truly for the praise of what is good.	14 sive ducibus tamquam ab eo missis ad vindictam malefactorum,laudem vero bonorum;
15 For such is the will of God, that by doing good you may bring about the silence of imprudent and ignorant men,	15 quia sic est voluntas Dei, ut benefacientes obmutescerefaciatis imprudentium hominum ignorantiam,
16 in an open manner, and not as if cloaking malice with liberty, but like servants of God.	16 quasi liberi, et non quasi velamenhabentes malitiae libertatem, sed sicut servi Dei.
17 Honor everyone. Love brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.	17 Omnes honorate, fraternitatem diligite, Deum timete, regem honorificate.
18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and meek, but also to the unruly.	18 Servi, subditi estote in omni timore dominis, non tantum bonis et modestissed etiam pravis.
19 For this is grace: when, because of God, a man willingly endures sorrows, suffering injustice.	19 Haec est enim gratia, si propter conscientiam Dei sustinetquis tristitias, patiens iniuste.
20 For what glory is there, if you sin and then suffer a beating? But if you do well and suffer patiently, this is grace with God.	20 Quae enim gloria est, si peccantes etcolaphizati sustinetis? Sed si benefacientes et patientes sustinetis, haec estgratia apud Deum.
21 For you have been called to this because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example, so that you would follow in his footsteps.	21 In hoc enim vocati estis, quia et Christus passus est pro vobis, vobis relinquens exemplum, ut sequamini vestigia eius:
22 He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth.	22 qui peccatum non fecit, nec inventus est dolus in ore ipsius;
23 And when evil was spoken against him, he did not speak evil. When he suffered, he did not threaten. Then he handed himself over to him who judged him unjustly.	23 qui cum malediceretur, non remaledicebat; cum pateretur, non comminabatur, commendabat autem iuste iudicanti;
24 He himself bore our sins in his body upon the tree, so that we, having died to sin, would live for justice. By his wounds, you have been healed.	24 qui peccata nostra ipse pertulit in corpore suo super lignum, ut peccatis mortui iustitiae viveremus; cuius livore sanati estis.
25 For you were like wandering sheep. But now you have been turned back toward the Pastor and the Bishop of your souls.	25 Eratis enim sicut oves errantes, sed conversi estis nunc ad pastorem et episcopum animarum vestrarum.
