2PE-1:1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ,
to
them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the
righteousness of God and
our Saviour Jesus Christ:
2PE-1:2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the
knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
2PE-1:3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all
things
that [pertain] unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of
him
that hath
called us to glory and virtue:
2PE-1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious
promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine
nature,
having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
2PE-1:5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith
virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
2PE-1:6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience;
and to patience godliness;
2PE-1:7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly
kindness charity.
2PE-1:8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make
[you
that ye shall] neither [be] barren nor unfruitful in the
knowledge
of our Lord Jesus Christ.
2PE-1:9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot
see
afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old
sins.
2PE-1:10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make
your calling
and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never
fall:
2PE-1:11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you
abundantly
into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus
Christ.
2PE-1:12 Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in
remembrance of these things, though ye know [them], and be
established in the present truth.
2PE-1:13 Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this
tabernacle,
to stir you up by putting [you] in remembrance;
2PE-1:14 Knowing that shortly I must put off [this] my
tabernacle,
even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath showed me.
2PE-1:15 Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my
decease to have these things always in remembrance.
2PE-1:16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables,
when we
made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ,
but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
2PE-1:17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory,
when
there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is
my
beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
2PE-1:18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we
were with him in the holy mount.
2PE-1:19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto
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:
2PE-1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture
is
of any private interpretation.
2PE-1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of
man:
but holy men of God spake [as they were] moved by the Holy Ghost.
