TSK · 1 Peter 2:9

Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth [is] mine:

For thou [art] an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that [are] upon the face of the earth.

For thou [art] an holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that [are] upon the earth.

And the LORD hath avouched thee this day to be his peculiar people, as he hath promised thee, and that [thou] shouldest keep all his commandments;

¶ Blessed [is] the nation whose God [is] the LORD; [and] the people [whom] he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in.

And I will bring the blind by a way [that] they knew not; I will lead them in paths [that] they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.

¶ Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:

But ye shall be named the Priests of the LORD: [men] shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.

The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

To give light to them that sit in darkness and [in] the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.

Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.

If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.

Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

For ye were sometimes darkness, but now [are ye] light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him [be] glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

Blessed and holy [is] he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
