14. Like obedient children, do not be shaped by the cravings you had formerly in your ignorance.
15. Instead, just like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in everything you do.
16. For it is written, “Kedoshim you shall be, for I am kadosh.”
17. If you call on Him as Father—the One who judges impartially according to each one’s deeds—then live out the time of sojourning in reverent fear.
18. You know that you were redeemed from the futile way of life handed down from your ancestors—not with perishable things such as silver or gold,
19. but with precious blood like that of a lamb without defect or spot, the blood of Messiah.
20. He was chosen before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake.
