1 Peter 2:10-12
International Standard Version
10 Once you were not a people,
but now you are the people of God.
Once you had not received mercy,
but now you have received mercy.
Live as God’s Servants
11 Dear friends, I urge you as aliens and exiles to keep on abstaining from the desires of the flesh that wage war against the soul. 12 Continue to live such upright lives among the gentiles that, when they slander you as practicers of evil, they may see your good actions and glorify God when he visits them.[a]
