ἀλλὰ τιμίῳ αἵματι ὡς ἀμνοῦ ἀμώμου καὶ ἀσπίλου Χριστοῦ , προεγνωσμένου μὲν πρὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου , φανερωθέντος δὲ ἐπ’ ἐσχάτου τῶν χρόνων δι’ ὑμᾶς τοὺς δι’ αὐτοῦ πιστοὺς εἰς θεὸν τὸν ἐγείραντα αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν καὶ δόξαν αὐτῷ δόντα , ὥστε τὴν πίστιν ὑμῶν καὶ ἐλπίδα εἶναι εἰς θεόν . Τὰς ψυχὰς ὑμῶν ἡγνικότες ἐν τῇ ὑπακοῇ τῆς ἀληθείας εἰς φιλαδελφίαν ἀνυπόκριτον ἐκ καρδίας ἀλλήλους ἀγαπήσατε ἐκτενῶς , ἀναγεγεννημένοι οὐκ ἐκ σπορᾶς φθαρτῆς ἀλλὰ ἀφθάρτου , διὰ λόγου ζῶντος θεοῦ καὶ μένοντος · διότι πᾶσα σὰρξ ὡς χόρτος , καὶ πᾶσα δόξα αὐτῆς ὡς ἄνθος χόρτου · ἐξηράνθη ὁ χόρτος , καὶ τὸ ἄνθος ἐξέπεσεν · τὸ δὲ ῥῆμα κυρίου μένει εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα . τοῦτο δέ ἐστιν τὸ ῥῆμα τὸ εὐαγγελισθὲν εἰς ὑμᾶς .
