1 Peter 1:19 (KJ21)
We have also a more sure word of prophecy, unto which ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn and the day star arise in your hearts,

1 Peter 1:19 (NAS)
And so we have the prophetic word made more sure, to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts.

1 Peter 1:19 (NIVUS)
And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

1 Peter 1:19 (NLT)
Because of that, we have even greater confidence in the message proclaimed by the prophets. Pay close attention to what they wrote, for their words are like a light shining in a dark place—until the day Christ appears and his brilliant light shines in your hearts.



You have chosen to hold onto God's word; you adhere and cling to it.It is a treasured possession that is stable, firm, sure and trustworthy.Through it, you learn God's thoughts. It sheds light and gives youthe power to understand moral and spiritual truth. You do well to keep it near to your heart; let your mind always be atttentive to it, for this is a beautiful, honorable and excellent thing!

As a lamp, it guides your steps, making them clear. It manifests God's will for your life. It keeps you from dark, dirty, and squalid places.As you embrace it, the darkness does not overcome youand you continually live in its Light.

Jesus Christ, the Word of God made flesh, is the Daystar of you life! He is the Light of the world and He is the Word of God who lights your path.
