Godly [ε υ σ ε β ε ι ς]. Used by Peter only. Compare Acts 10:2; Acts 10:7. The reading at Acts 22:12, is eujlabhv, devout. See on ch. 2 Peter 1:3. Temptation [π ε ι ρ α σ μ ο υ]. See on 1 Peter 1:6.

To reserve [τ η ρ ε ι ν]. See on 1 Peter 1:4. Rev., keep, is not an improvement.

To be punished [κ ο λ α ζ ο μ ε ν ο υ ς]. Only here and Acts 4:21, where the narrative probably came from Peter. The participle here is, lit., being punished, and therefore the A. V. is wrong. Rev., rightly, under punishment. Compare Matthew 25:46.
