1 Peter 1:13-17

Read in KJV Bible Reader

1 Peter 1:13-17. Be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: but as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:

In holy fear; - not in servile, slavish fear, but in a blessed state of sacred timidity and awe lest you should offend your God and Saviour.
