1 Peter 4:2-4
New Matthew Bible
2 that he henceforward should live as much time as remains in the flesh, not after the lusts or desires of men, but after the will of God. 3 For it is enough for us that we have spent the time that is past of our life after the will of the Gentiles, walking in wantonness, lusts, drunkenness; in eating, drinking, and in abominable idolatry.
4 And it seems to them a strange thing that you run not also with them to the same excess of disorder, and therefore they speak evil of you.

1 Peter 4:2-4
New International Version
2 As a result, they do not live the rest of their earthly lives for evil human desires,(A) but rather for the will of God. 3 For you have spent enough time in the past(B) doing what pagans choose to do—living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry.(C) 4 They are surprised that you do not join them in their reckless, wild living, and they heap abuse on you.(D)
