17 And if you call on him as Father who judges ^eimpartially according to each one’s deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your ^fexile, 18 knowing that you were ^gransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, ^hnot with perishable things such as ⁱsilver or gold, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a ^jlamb without blemish or spot. 20 He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was ^kmade manifest in the last times for the sake of you 21 ^lwho through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him ^mglory, so that your faith and hope are in God.
