1 Peter 1:14-17
New English Translation

14 Like obedient children, do not comply with[a] the evil urges you used to follow in your ignorance,[b] 15 but, like the Holy One who called you, become holy yourselves in all of your conduct, 16 for it is written, “You shall be holy, because I am holy.”[c] 17 And if you address as Father the one who impartially judges according to each one’s work, live out the time of your temporary residence here[d] in reverence.
