1 Peter 2:24-25

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁴ When Christ died on the cross, he carried our sins in his own body.^[a] He took this punishment so that sin would no longer rule over us. Instead, we can now do the right things that God wants us to do. Because people hurt Christ's body, you have now become well.^{[b] 25} Before, you were like sheep that were going the wrong way. But now you have turned round and come to Christ. He is your Shepherd, and he keeps you completely safe.
