PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Por tanto desechen toda maldad, engaño, hipocresía, envidias y maledicencia.
1 Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,
1 Ἀποθέμενοι οὖν πᾶσαν κακίαν καὶ πάντα δόλον καὶ ὑποκρίσεις καὶ φθόνους καὶ πάσας καταλαλιάς,
2 Deseen como bebés recién nacidos la leche espiritual no adulterada para que por medio de ella crezcan en [la] salvación,
2 as newborn babies, long for the pure spiritual milk, that with it you may grow,
2 ὡς ἀρτιγέννητα βρέφη τὸ λογικὸν ἄδολον γάλα ἐπιποθήσατε, ἵνα ἐν αὐτῷ αὐξηθῆτε [εἰς σωτηρίαν],
3 pues ustedes experimentaron la benignidad del Señor.
3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
3 εἴπερ ἐγεύσασθε ὅτι χρηστὸς ὁ Κύριος.
4 Acérquense a [Cristo], Piedra Viva, ciertamente desechada por [los] hombres, pero para Dios escogida, preciosa.
4 Come to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious.
4 Πρὸς ὃν προσερχόμενοι, λίθον ζῶντα, ὑπὸ ἀνθρώπων μὲν ἀποδεδοκιμασμένον, παρὰ δὲ Θεῷ ἐκλεκτόν, ἔντιμον,
5 Ustedes también, como piedras vivas, son edificados como casa espiritual y sacerdocio santo para ofrecer sacrificios espirituales aceptables a Dios por medio de Jesucristo.
5 You also as living stones are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
5 καὶ αὐτοὶ ὡς λίθοι ζῶντες οἰκοδομεῖσθε οἶκος πνευματικός, ἱεράτευμα ἅγιον, ἀνενέγκαι πνευματικὰς θυσίας εὐπροσδέκτους τῷ Θεῷ διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ·
6 Por lo cual dice la Escritura: Ciertamente, pongo en Sion la Piedra del ángulo, escogida, preciosa. Y el que cree en Él, Que de ningún modo sea avergonzado.
6 Because it is contained in Scripture, “Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen and precious. He who believes in him will not be disappointed.”
6 διότι περιέχει ἐν τῇ γραφῇ· ἰδοὺ τίθημι ἐν Σιὼν λίθον ἀκρογωνιαῖον, ἐκλεκτόν, ἔντιμον, καὶ ὁ πιστεύων ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ οὐ μὴ καταισχυνθῇ.
7 [Él] es precioso para ustedes los que creen, pero para los incrédulos: [La ]piedra que desecharon los edificadores Fue establecida como la cabeza del ángulo.
7 For you who believe therefore is the honor, but for those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone,”
7 ὑμῖν οὖν ἡ τιμὴ τοῖς πιστεύουσιν, ἀπειθοῦσι δὲ λίθον ὃν ἀπεδοκίμασαν οἱ οἰκοδομοῦντες, οὗτος ἐγενήθη εἰς κεφαλὴν γωνίας καὶ λίθος προσκόμματος καὶ πέτρα σκανδάλου.
8 Y: Piedra de tropiezo y roca que hace caer. Éstos, al ser desobedientes, tropiezan en la Palabra. Tal es su destino.
8 and, “a stumbling stone and a rock of offense.” For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.
8 οἳ προσκόπτουσι τῷ λόγῳ ἀπειθοῦντες, εἰς ὃ καὶ ἐτέθησαν.
9 Pero ustedes son linaje escogido, sacerdocio real, nación santa, pueblo adquirido por Dios para que proclamen las virtudes del que los llamó de la oscuridad a su luz admirable,
9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
9 ὑμεῖς δὲ γένος ἐκλεκτόν, βασίλειον ἱεράτευμα, ἔθνος ἅγιον, λαὸς εἰς περιποίησιν, ὅπως τὰς ἀρετὰς ἐξαγγείλητε τοῦ ἐκ σκότους ὑμᾶς καλέσαντος εἰς τὸ θαυμαστὸν αὐτοῦ φῶς·
10 los que en un tiempo no eran pueblo, pero ahora son pueblo de Dios, los no compadecidos por misericordia, pero ahora compadecidos por misericordia.
10 In the past, you were not a people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
10 οἵ ποτε οὐ λαός, νῦν δὲ λαὸς Θεοῦ, οἱ οὐκ ἠλεημένοι, νῦν δὲ ἐλεηθέντες.
11 Amados, les ruego como a extranjeros y peregrinos, que se abstengan de los ardientes deseos humanos que se enfrentan en batalla contra el alma.
11 Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims to abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,
11 Ἀγαπητοί, παρακαλῶ ὡς παροίκους καὶ παρεπιδήμους, ἀπέχεσθε τῶν σαρκικῶν ἐπιθυμιῶν, αἵτινες στρατεύονται κατὰ τῆς ψυχῆς,
12 Sea buena su manera de vivir entre los gentiles, para que cuando los malhechores murmuren de ustedes, glorifiquen a Dios cuando vean sus obras buenas [el] día de la supervisión.
12 having good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good works and glorify God in the day of visitation.
12 τὴν ἀναστροφὴν ὑμῶν ἔχοντες καλὴν ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν, ἵνα ἐν ᾧ καταλαλοῦσιν ὑμῶν ὡς κακοποιῶν, ἐκ τῶν καλῶν ἔργων ἐποπτεύσαντες δοξάσωσι τὸν Θεὸν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ἐπισκοπῆς.
13 Por causa del Señor, sométanse a toda institución que tiene poder como máxima autoridad,
13 Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether to the king, as supreme,
13 Ὑποτάγητε οὖν πάσῃ ἀνθρωπίνῃ κτίσει διὰ τὸν Κύριον, εἴτε βασιλεῖ, ὡς ὑπερέχοντι,
14 tanto a los gobernadores, como a los enviados por ellos para castigar a los malhechores y para aprobar a los que hacen bien.
14 or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to those who do well.
14 εἴτε ἡγεμόσιν, ὡς δι᾽ αὐτοῦ πεμπομένοις εἰς ἐκδίκησιν [μὲν] κακοποιῶν, ἔπαινον δὲ ἀγαθοποιῶν·
15 Porque así es la voluntad de Dios, que por hacer bien, callen la ignorancia de los hombres insensatos.
15 For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.
15 ὅτι οὕτως ἐστὶ τὸ θέλημα τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἀγαθοποιοῦντας φιμοῦν τὴν τῶν ἀφρόνων ἀνθρώπων ἀγνωσίαν·
16 [Vivan] como libres, como esclavos de Dios, pero no como si tuvieran la libertad como pretexto para la maldad.
16 Live as free people, yet not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.
16 ὡς ἐλεύθεροι, καὶ μὴ ὡς ἐπικάλυμμα ἔχοντες τῆς κακίας τὴν ἐλευθερίαν, ἀλλ᾽ ὡς δοῦλοι Θεοῦ.
17 Honren a todos, amen a la hermandad, teman a Dios, honren al rey.
17 Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.
17 πάντας τιμήσατε, τὴν ἀδελφότητα ἀγαπᾶτε, τὸν Θεὸν φοβεῖσθε, τὸν βασιλέα τιμᾶτε.
18 Esclavos, sométanse con todo respeto a sus amos, no solo a los buenos y apacibles, sino también a los ásperos.
18 Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.
18 Οἱ οἰκέται ὑποτασσόμενοι ἐν παντὶ φόβῳ τοῖς δεσπόταις, οὐ μόνον τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς καὶ ἐπιεικέσιν, ἀλλὰ καὶ τοῖς σκολιοῖς.
19 Porque esto merece aprobación: cuando alguno soporta aflicciones y padece injustamente por causa de la conciencia delante de Dios.
19 For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God.
19 τοῦτο γὰρ χάρις, εἰ διὰ συνείδησιν Θεοῦ ὑποφέρει τις λύπας, πάσχων ἀδίκως.
20 Pues ¿qué mérito tienen si son abofeteados por pecar y soportan? Pero si cuando hacen el bien soportan y padecen, esto ciertamente es agradable ante Dios,
20 For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.
20 ποῖον γὰρ κλέος, εἰ ἁμαρτάνοντες καὶ κολαφιζόμενοι ὑπομενεῖτε; ἀλλ᾽ εἰ ἀγαθοποιοῦντες καὶ πάσχοντες ὑπομενεῖτε, τοῦτο χάρις παρὰ Θεῷ.
21 porque para esto fueron llamados. También Cristo padeció por nosotros y nos dejó ejemplo para que ustedes sigan sus pisadas.
21 For you were called to this, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps,
21 εἰς τοῦτο γὰρ ἐκλήθητε, ὅτι καὶ Χριστὸς ἔπαθεν ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν, ὑμῖν ὑπολιμπάνων ὑπογραμμὸν ἵνα ἐπακολουθήσητε τοῖς ἴχνεσιν αὐτοῦ·
22 Él no pecó, ni fue hallado engaño en su boca.
22 who didn’t sin, “neither was deceit found in his mouth.”
22 ὃς ἁμαρτίαν οὐκ ἐποίησεν, οὐδὲ εὑρέθη δόλος ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτοῦ·
23 Cuando era insultado, no replicaba. Cuando padecía, no amenazaba, sino se encomendaba al que juzga justamente.
23 When he was cursed, he didn’t curse back. When he suffered, he didn’t threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously.
23 ὃς λοιδορούμενος οὐκ ἀντελοιδόρει, πάσχων οὐκ ἠπείλει, παρεδίδου δὲ τῷ κρίνοντι δικαίως·
24 Él mismo llevó nuestros pecados en su cuerpo sobre el madero para que nosotros muramos a los pecados y vivamos para la justicia. Por su herida fueron sanados.
24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.
24 ὃς τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν αὐτὸς ἀνήνεγκεν ἐν τῷ σώματι αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ ξύλον, ἵνα ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις ἀπογενόμενοι τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ ζήσωμεν· οὗ τῷ μώλωπι [αὐτοῦ] ἰάθητε.
25 Ustedes eran como ovejas descarriadas, pero ahora volvieron al Pastor y Supervisor de sus almas.
25 For you were going astray like sheep; but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
25 ἦτε γὰρ ὡς πρόβατα πλανώμενα, ἀλλ᾽ ἐπεστράφητε νῦν ἐπὶ τὸν ποιμένα καὶ ἐπίσκοπον τῶν ψυχῶν ὑμῶν.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Let us then continually persevere in our hope, and the earnest of our righteousness, which is Jesus Christ, "who bore our sins in His own body on the tree," "who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth," but endured all things for us, that we might live in Him.
And for this reason Peter says "that we have not liberty as a cloak of maliciousness," but as the means of testing and evidencing faith.
25. But you, "chosen generation, you weak things of the world," who have forsaken all things that you might "follow the Lord," go after Him, and "confound the things which are mighty;" go after Him, ye beautiful feet, and shine in the firmament, that the heavens may declare His glory, dividing between the light of the perfect, though not as …

He is called a Stone, not a lifeless stone, cut out by men's hands, but a chief corner-stone, on whom whosoever believeth shall not be put to shame.
Read in context · Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, series 2, vol. 7 (1894)
When you can do good, defer it not, because "alms delivers from death." Be all of you subject one to another "having your conduct blameless among the Gentiles," that ye may both receive praise for your good works, and the Lord may not be blasphemed through you.
