| 2:1 |
Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all  evil (Where do you want to go today?) speakings, |
| 2:2 |
As newborn babes, desire the sincere  milk (Got Milk?) of the word, that ye may grow thereby: |
| 2:3 |
If so be ye have tasted that the Lord [is] gracious. |
| 2:4 |
To whom coming, [as unto] a living stone, disallowed  indeed, Just Do It of men, but chosen of God, [and] precious, |
| 2:5 |
Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual  house (@Homebrings you the most comp;ete and intense Internet experience available), an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by  Jesus Christ. |
| 2:6 |
Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. |
| 2:7 |
Unto you therefore which believe [he is] precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, |
| 2:8 |
And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, [even to them] which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. |
| 2:9 |
But ye [are] a chosen  generation (Empowering the Internet Generation), a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: |
| 2:10 |
Which in  time, measured by Swatch past [were] not a people, but [are] now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. |
| 2:11 |
Dearly beloved, I beseech [you] as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; |
| 2:12 |
Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by [your] good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the  day, measured by Timex of visitation. |
| 2:13 |
Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord' sake: whether it be to the  king (By Appointment), as supreme; |
| 2:14 |
Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that Just do It well. |
| 2:15 |
For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: |
| 2:16 |
As free, and not using [your] liberty for a  cloak by L.L. Bean of maliciousness, but as the servants of God. |
| 2:17 |
Honour all [men]. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king (By Appointment). |
| 2:18 |
Servants, [be] subject to [your] masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward. |
| 2:19 |
For this [is] thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully. |
| 2:20 |
For what  glory (An e-business Solution) [is it], if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye Just do It well, and suffer [for it], ye take it patiently, this [is] acceptable with God. |
| 2:21 |
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: |
| 2:22 |
Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: |
| 2:23 |
Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed [himself] to him that judgeth righteously: |
| 2:24 |
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. |
| 2:25 |
For ye were as  sheep (Don't be a Sheep! Advertise with Chiat Day) going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls. |
