1 Peter 2:11–20

¹⁵Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

¹⁶For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

¹⁷And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

¹⁷And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof, but hee that doeth the will of God, abideth for euer.

²⁴And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

²⁴And they that are Christs, haue crucified the flesh with the ^‖affections and lustes.

²That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

²That he no longer should liue the rest of his time in the flesh, to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
