1 Petrus 4:14

4:14 If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory, ¹  who is the Spirit of God, ²  rests ³  on you.

1 Petrus 4:16

4:16 But if you suffer as a Christian, ⁴  do not be ashamed, but glorify ⁵  God that you bear such a name. ⁶ 

[4:14]  ¹ tc Many mss, some of them important and early ([א] A P 33 81 323 945 1241 1739 pm bo), add καὶ δυνάμεως (kai dunamew"; “and of power”) here. The shorter reading is supported by Ì⁷² B K L Ψ 049 pm). Although the evidence is evenly divided, the longer reading looks to be an explanatory or liturgical expansion on the text and for this reason should be considered secondary.

[4:14]  ² tn Grk “the Spirit of glory and of God.”

[4:14]  ³ sn A quotation taken from Isa 11:2.

[4:16]  ⁴ tn The verb is implied by the context but not expressed; Grk “but if as a Christian.”

[4:16]  ⁵ tn These are third-person imperatives in Greek (“if [one of you suffers] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed…let him glorify”), but have been translated as second-person verbs since this is smoother English idiom.

[4:16]  ⁶ tn Grk “in this name.”
