1 Peter 2:23 in Context — 1 Peter 2

21 Pois para isto fostes chamados, porque também Cristo sofreu por nós, deixando-nos exemplo, para que sigais os seus passos.

22 Ele não cometeu pecado, nem engano foi achado em sua boca.

23 Quando o insultavam, ele não insultava de volta. Quando sofria, ele não ameaçava; em vez disso, entregava-se ao que julga de maneira justa.

24 Ele levou nossos pecados em seu próprio corpo sobre o madeiro; para que nós, estando mortos para os pecados, vivamos para a justiça. Pela ferida dele fostes sarados.

25 Porque vós éreis como ovelhas desviadas do caminho; mas agora vós estais convertidos ao Pastor e Supervisor de vossas almas.
