Faith Heals Bible1 Peter 2:9 KJV
9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Open in the app to highlight it, hear it read aloud, and ask Faith what it means.
In context
8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.
9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
In other translations
But ye are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that ye may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Lakini ninyi ni ukoo uliochaguliwa, ukuhani wa kifalme, taifa takatifu, watu wa miliki ya Mungu, ili kwamba mweze kutangaza matendo ya ajabu ya yule aliyewaita kutoka gizani kuja kwenye nuru yake ya ajabu.
Naye mwe muli kika kironde, bakabona bw’obwakabaka, eggwanga ettukuvu, abantu ba Katonda bennyini. Mwalondebwa mulyoke mutende ebirungi bya Katonda eyabaggya mu kizikiza n’abayingiza mu butangaavu bwe obutenkanika.
Kasi bino bozali libota oyo eponama, Banganga-Nzambe ya Mokonzi, ekolo ya bule mpe basikolami ya Nzambe mpo na kosakola misala minene ya Ye oyo abenga bino mpo ete bolongwa na molili mpe bokota kati na pole na Ye ya kokamwa.
Vous, au contraire, vous êtes une race élue, un sacerdoce royal, une nation sainte, un peuple acquis, afin que vous annonciez les vertus de celui qui vous a appelés des ténèbres à son admirable lumière,
Mas vosotros sois linaje escogido, real sacerdocio, gente santa, pueblo adquirido, para que anunciéis las virtudes de aquel que os ha llamado de las tinieblas á su luz admirable:
Ihr aber seid das auserwählte Geschlecht, das königliche Priestertum, das heilige Volk, das Volk des Eigentums, daß ihr verkündigen sollt die Tugenden des, der euch berufen hat von der Finsternis zu seinem wunderbaren Licht;
Mas vocês são raça eleita, sacerdócio real, nação santa, povo de propriedade exclusiva de Deus, para que proclamem as excelências daquele que os chamou das trevas para a sua maravilhosa luz.
