14as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves to the former desires in your ignorance,
15but according as He who did call you [is] holy, ye also, become holy in all behaviour,
16because it hath been written, `Become ye holy, because I am holy;`
17and if on the Father ye do call, who without acceptance of persons is judging according to the work of each, in fear the time of your sojourn pass ye,
18having known that, not with corruptible things -- silver or gold -- were ye redeemed from your foolish behaviour delivered by fathers,
19but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and unspotted -- Christ`s --
20foreknown, indeed, before the foundation of the world, and manifested in the last times because of you,
