Greek NT<br />
17 Καὶ εἰ πατέρα<br />
ἐπικαλεῖσθε τὸν<br />
ἀ π ρ ο σ ω π ο λ ή μ π τ ω ς<br />
κρίνοντα κατὰ τὸ ἑκάστου<br />
ἔργον, ἐν φόβῳ τὸν τῆς<br />
παροικίας ὑμῶν χρόνον<br />
ἀναστράφητε· 18 εἰδότες<br />
ὅτι οὐ φθαρτοῖς, ἀργυρίῳ ἢ<br />
χρυσίῳ, ἐλυτρώθητε ἐκ τῆς<br />
ματαίας ὑμῶν ἀναστροφῆς<br />
πατροπαραδότου, 19 ἀλλὰ<br />
τιμίῳ αἵματι ὡς ἀμνοῦ<br />
ἀμώμου καὶ ἀσπίλου<br />
Χριστοῦ, 20 προεγνωσμένου<br />
μὲν πρὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου,<br />
φανερωθέντος δὲ ἐπʼ<br />
ἐσχάτου τῶν χρόνων διʼ ὑμᾶς<br />
21 τοὺς διʼ αὐτοῦ πιστοὺς εἰς<br />
θεὸν τὸν ἐγείραντα αὐτὸν<br />
ἐκ νεκρῶν καὶ δόξαν αὐτῷ<br />
δόντα, ὥστε τὴν πίστιν ὑμῶν<br />
καὶ ἐλπίδα εἶναι εἰς θεόν.<br />

Gute Nachricht Bibel<br />
17IhrruftGottimGebetals<br />
»Vater« an – ihn, der jeden<br />
Menschen als unbestechlicher<br />
Richter für seine Taten<br />
zur Rechenschaft ziehen<br />
wird. Führt darum, solange<br />
ihr noch hier in der Fremde<br />
seid, ein Leben, mit dem ihr<br />
vor ihm bestehen könnt!<br />
18 Ihr wisst, um welchen<br />
Preis ihr freigekauft worden<br />
seid, damit ihr nun nicht<br />
mehr ein so sinn- und nutzloses<br />
Leben führen müsst,<br />
wie ihr es von euren Vorfahren<br />
übernommen habt.<br />
Nicht mit Silber und Gold<br />
seid ihr freigekauft worden –<br />
sie verlieren ihren Wert –, 19<br />
sondern mit dem kostbaren<br />
Blut eines reinen und fehlerlosen<br />
Opferlammes, dem<br />
Blut von Christus. 20 Ihn<br />
hatte Gott schon zu diesem<br />
Opfer bestimmt, bevor er<br />
die Welt schuf. Jetzt aber,<br />
am Ende der Zeit, hat er ihn<br />
euretwegen in die Welt gesandt.<br />
21 Durch ihn habt ihr<br />
zum Glauben gefunden an<br />
Gott, der ihn von den Toten<br />
auferweckt und ihm göttliche<br />
Herrlichkeit gegeben hat.<br />
Darum setzt ihr nun euer<br />
Vertrauen und eure Hoffnung<br />
auf Gott.<br />
NRSV<br />
17 If you invoke as Father<br />
the one who judges all people<br />
impartially according to their<br />
deeds, live in reverent fear<br />
during the time of your exile.<br />
18 You know that you were<br />
ransomed from the futile<br />
ways inherited from your ancestors,<br />
not with perishable<br />
things like silver or gold, 19<br />
but with the precious blood<br />
of Christ, like that of a lamb<br />
without defect or blemish. 20<br />
He was destined before the<br />
foundation of the world, but<br />
was revealed at the end of<br />
the ages for your sake. 21<br />
Through him you have come<br />
to trust in God, who raised<br />
him from the dead and gave<br />
him glory, so that your faith<br />
and hope are set on God.<br />

17 And remember that<br />
the heavenly Father to<br />
whom you pray has no favorites<br />
when he judges.<br />
He will judge or reward you<br />
according to what you do.<br />
So you must live in reverent<br />
fear of him during your<br />
time as foreigners here on<br />
earth. 18 For you know that<br />
God paid a ransom to save<br />
you from the empty life you<br />
inherited from your ancestors.<br />
And the ransom he paid<br />
was not mere gold or silver.<br />
19 He paid for you with the<br />
precious lifeblood of Christ,<br />
the sinless, spotless Lamb<br />
of God. 20 God chose him<br />
for this purpose long before<br />
the world began, but now<br />
in these final days, he was<br />
sent to the earth for all to<br />
see. And he did this for you.<br />
21 Through Christ you have<br />
come to trust in God. And<br />
because God raised Christ<br />
from the dead and gave him<br />
great glory, your faith and<br />
hope can be placed confidently<br />
in God.<br />

Introduction to Study.<br />
Quite interesting is the variation in wording among the above three translations of the single Greek sentence<br />
in vv. 17-21. The German Die Gute Nachricht Bibel breaks the one Greek sentence into eight German sentences,<br />
while the two English translations use either four sentences (New Revised Standard Version) or ten sentences<br />
(New Living Translation). What this signals is a Greek sentence packed full of ideas that are tightly knitted together<br />
