1 Pedro 2

Die ihr einst „kein Volk“ (Nicht-Volk, Hosea 1,6.9) †wart, jetzt aber Volk Gottes †seid, die „kein Erbarmen fanden“ (Nicht-Erbarmen, Hosea 2,25), jetzt aber Erbarmen finden.

Vosotros, que en el tiempo pasado no erais pueblo, mas ahora sois pueblo de Dios; que en el tiempo pasado no habíais alcanzado misericordia, mas ahora habéis alcanzado misericordia.

Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

In the past, you were not a people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
