Other Translations - 1 Peter
1:10-12:
Concerning
this salvation, the prophets, who spoke of the grace
that was to come to you, searched intently and with
the greatest care, trying to find out the time and
circumstances to which the Spirit of Christ in them
was pointing when he predicted the sufferings of
Christ and the glories that would follow. It was
revealed to them that they were not serving
themselves but you, when they spoke of the things
that have now been told you by those who have
preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent
from heaven. Even angels long to look into these
things. (NIV)
Of
this salvation the prophets have inquired and
searched carefully, who prophesied of the grace that
would come to you, searching what, or what manner of
time, the Spirit of Christ who was in them was
indicating when He testified beforehand the
sufferings of Christ and the glories that would
follow. To them it was revealed that, not to
themselves, but to us they were ministering the
things which now have been reported to you through
those who have preached the gospel to you by the
Holy Spirit sent from heaven-- things which angels
desire to look into. (NKJ)
Concerning
which salvation the prophets sought and searched
diligently, who prophesied of the grace that (should
come) unto you: searching what (time) or what manner
of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did
point unto, when it testified beforehand the
sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should
follow them. To whom it was revealed, that not unto
themselves, but unto you, did they minister these
things, which now have been announced unto you
through them that preached the gospel unto you by
the Holy Spirit sent forth from heaven; which things
angels desire to look into. (ASV)
Of
which salvation the prophets have inquired and
searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace
that should come unto you: Searching what, or what
manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in
them did signify, when it testified beforehand the
sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should
follow. Unto whom it was revealed, that not
unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the
things, which are now reported unto you by them that
have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy
Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels
desire to look into. (KJV) |
