1 Peter 1:10-12

Born Again to a Living Hope

¹⁰ Concerning this salvation, _x the prophets who prophesied about the grace that was to be yours searched and inquired carefully, ¹¹ inquiring _y what person or time _z the Spirit of Christ in them was indicating _a when he predicted _b the sufferings of Christ and the subsequent glories. ¹² _c It was revealed to them that _d they were serving not themselves but you, in the things that have now been announced to you through those who preached the good news to you _e by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, _f things into which angels long to look.
