1 Petrus 1:5

1:5 who by God’s power are protected through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

1 Petrus 2:8

2:8 and a stumbling-stone ¹  and a rock to trip over. ²  They stumble ³  because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do. ⁴ 

1 Petrus 5:3

5:3 And do not lord it over ⁵  those entrusted to you, ⁶  but be examples to the flock.

[2:8]  ¹ tn Grk “a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.” The latter phrase uses the term σκάνδαλον (skandalon), denoting an obstacle to faith, something that arouses anger and rejection.

[2:8]  ² sn A quotation from Isa 8:14.

[2:8]  ³ tn Grk “who stumble,” referring to “those who do not believe” in vs. 7. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[2:8]  ⁴ tn Grk “to which they were also destined.”

[5:3]  ⁵ tn Grk “not as lording it over…but being examples.” The participles continue the command of v. 2 by describing how the shepherding should be carried out.

[5:3]  ⁶ tn Grk “the ones allotted,” referring to those God has given over to their care.
