1 Peter 57

1 Peter 5:7 is a verse from the New Testament of the Christian Bible, found in the First Epistle of Peter. The verse reads: "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you" (NIV). This passage encourages believers to entrust their worries and concerns to God, emphasizing His care and concern for them. The phrase "cast all your anxiety" can be translated to Hebrew as "תַּשְׁלִיכוּ עָלָיו כָּל-דַּעַתְכֶם" (Tashlikhu alav kol da'atkhem), where "דַּעַת" (da'at) refers to anxiety or worry. In Greek, the original language of the New Testament, the verse is "πᾶσαν τὴν μέριμναν ὑμῶν ἐπὶ τὸν θεὸν ῥίψαντες· ὅτι αὐτὸς περιποιεῖται ὑμῶν" (pasan tēn merimnan hymōn epi ton theon rhipsantes; hoti autos peripoieitai hymōn). The context of this verse is part of Peter's exhortation to church elders and the younger members of the congregation, urging humility, vigilance, and trust in God amidst trials and sufferings. The verse is often cited in Christian teachings on faith, anxiety, and reliance on divine providence.
