1 Peter 2:23 in Context — 1 Peter 2

21 Porque para esto sois llamados; pues que también Cristo padeció por nosotros, dejándonos ejemplo, para que vosotros sigáis sus pisadas:

22 El cual no hizo pecado; ni fué hallado engaño en su boca:

23 Quien cuando le maldecían, no retornaba maldición; cuando padecía, no amenazaba, sino remitía [la causa] al que juzga justamente:

24 El cual mismo llevó nuestros pecados en su cuerpo sobre el madero, para que nosotros siendo muertos á los pecados, vivamos á la justicia: por la herida del cual habéis sido sanados.

25 Porque vosotros erais como ovejas descarriadas; mas ahora habéis vuelto al Pastor y Obispo de vuestras almas.
