1 Pedro 2
Bible in Basic English (BBE) vs VC
1 So putting away all wrongdoing, and all tricks and deceits and envies and evil talk,
1 Deponde, pois, toda malícia, toda astúcia, fingimentos, invejas e toda espécie de maledicência.
2 Be full of desire for the true milk of the word, as babies at their mothers' breasts, so that you may go on to salvation;
2 as newborn babes desire earnestly the pure mental milk of the word, that by it ye may grow up to salvation,
3 If you have had a taste of the grace of the Lord:
3 if indeed ye have tasted that the Lord {is} good.
4 To whom you come, as to a living stone, not honoured by men, but of great and special value to God;
4 — ausente —
5 You, as living stones, are being made into a house of the spirit, a holy order of priests, making those offerings of the spirit which are pleasing to God through Jesus Christ.
5 yourselves also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
6 Because it is said in the Writings, See, I am placing a keystone in Zion, of great and special value; and the man who has faith in him will not be put to shame.
6 Because it is contained in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Zion a corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believes on him shall not be put to shame.
7 And the value is for you who have faith; but it is said for those without faith, The very stone which the builders put on one side, was made the chief stone of the building;
7 To you therefore who believe {is} the preciousness; but to the disobedient, the stone which the builders cast away as worthless, this is become head of {the} corner,
8 And, A stone of falling, a rock of trouble; the word is the cause of their fall, because they go against it, and this was the purpose of God.
8 and a stone of stumbling and rock of offence; {who} stumble at the word, being disobedient to which also they have been appointed.
9 But you are a special people, a holy nation, priests and kings, a people given up completely to God, so that you may make clear the virtues of him who took you out of the dark into the light of heaven.
9 But *ye* {are} a chosen race, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a people for a possession, that ye might set forth the excellencies of him who has called you out of darkness to his wonderful light;
10 In the past you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; then there was no mercy for you, but now mercy has been given to you.
10 who once {were} not a people, but now God's people; who were not enjoying mercy, but now have found mercy.
11 My loved ones, I make this request with all my heart, that, as those for whom this world is a strange country, you will keep yourselves from the desires of the flesh which make war against the soul;
11 Beloved, I exhort {you}, as strangers and sojourners, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
12 Being of good behaviour among the Gentiles; so that though they say now that you are evil-doers, they may see your good works and give glory to God when he comes to be their judge.
12 having your conversation honest among the Gentiles, that {as to that} in which they speak against you as evildoers, they may through {your} good works, {themselves} witnessing {them}, glorify God in {the} day of visitation.
13 Keep all the laws of men because of the Lord; those of the king, who is over all,
13 — ausente —
14 And those of the rulers who are sent by him for the punishment of evil-doers and for the praise of those who do well.
14 or to rulers as sent by him, for vengeance on evildoers, and praise to them that do well.
15 Because it is God's pleasure that foolish and narrow-minded men may be put to shame by your good behaviour:
15 Because so is the will of God, that by well-doing ye put to silence the ignorance of senseless men;
16 As those who are free, not using your free position as a cover for wrongdoing, but living as the servants of God;
16 as free, and not as having liberty as a cloak of malice, but as God's bondmen.
17 Have respect for all, loving the brothers, fearing God, honouring the king.
17 Shew honour to all, love the brotherhood, fear God, honour the king.
18 Servants, take orders from your masters with all respect; not only if they are good and gentle, but even if they are bad-humoured.
18 Servants, {be} subject with all fear to your masters, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the ill-tempered.
19 For it is a sign of grace if a man, desiring to do right in the eyes of God, undergoes pain as punishment for something which he has not done.
19 For this {is} acceptable, if one, for conscience sake towards God, endure griefs, suffering unjustly.
20 What credit is it if, when you have done evil, you take your punishment quietly? but if you are given punishment for doing right, and take it quietly, this is pleasing to God.
20 For what glory {is it}, if sinning and being buffeted ye shall bear {it}? but if, doing good and suffering, ye shall bear {it}, this is acceptable with God.
21 This is God's purpose for you: because Jesus himself underwent punishment for you, giving you an example, so that you might go in his footsteps:
21 For to this have ye been called; for Christ also has suffered for you, leaving you a model that ye should follow in his steps:
22 Who did no evil, and there was no deceit in his mouth:
22 who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth;
23 To sharp words he gave no sharp answer; when he was undergoing pain, no angry word came from his lips; but he put himself into the hands of the judge of righteousness:
23 who, {when} reviled, reviled not again; {when} suffering, threatened not; but gave {himself} over into the hands of him who judges righteously;
24 He took our sins on himself, giving his body to be nailed on the tree, so that we, being dead to sin, might have a new life in righteousness, and by his wounds we have been made well.
24 who himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, in order that, being dead to sins, we may live to righteousness: by whose stripes ye have been healed.
25 Because, like sheep, you had gone out of the way; but now you have come back to him who keeps watch over your souls.
25 For ye were going astray as sheep, but have now returned to the shepherd and overseer of your souls.
