1 Peter 4:15-17
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
15 For let none of you be suffering as a murderer or thief or evil-doer, or as a meddler[a]. 16 But if one suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him be glorifying God in this name. 17 Because it is time that the judgment begin from the household[b] of God. But if it begins first from us, what will be the outcome of the ones disobeying the good-news of God?

New International Version
15 If you suffer, it should not be as a murderer or thief or any other kind of criminal, or even as a meddler. 16 However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name.(A) 17 For it is time for judgment to begin with God’s household;(B) and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God?(C)
