2Pe 01:01 ¶ Simon <4826> Peter <4074>, a servant <1401> and 
<2532> an apostle <652> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, to them 
that have obtained <2975> (5631) like precious <2472> faith 
<4102> with us <2254> through <1722> the righteousness <1343> of 
God <2316> and <2532> our <2257> Saviour <4990> Jesus <2424> 
Christ <5547>:

2Pe 01:02  Grace <5485> and <2532> peace <1515> be multiplied 
<4129> (5684) unto you <5213> through <1722> the knowledge 
<1922> of God <2316>, and <2532> of Jesus <2424> our <2257> Lord 
<2962>,

2Pe 01:03  According as <5613> his <846> divine <2304> power 
<1411> hath given <1433> (5772) unto us <2254> all things <3956> 
that pertain unto <4314> life <2222> and <2532> godliness <2150>,
 through <1223> the knowledge <1922> of him that hath called 
<2564> (5660) us <2248> to <1223> glory <1391> and <2532> virtue 
<703>:

2Pe 01:04  Whereby <1223> <3739> are given <1433> (5769) unto us 
<2254> exceeding great <3176> and <2532> precious <5093> 
promises <1862>: that <2443> by <1223> these <5130> ye might be 
<1096> (5638) partakers <2844> of the divine <2304> nature 
<5449>, having escaped <668> (5631) the corruption <5356> that 
is in <1722> the world <2889> through <1722> lust <1939>.

2Pe 01:05 ¶ And <2532> <1161> beside <846> this <5124>, giving 
<3923> (5660) all <3956> diligence <4710>, add <2023> (5657) to 
<1722> your <5216> faith <4102> virtue <703>; and <1161> to 
<1722> virtue <703> knowledge <1108>;

2Pe 01:06  And <1161> to <1722> knowledge <1108> temperance 
<1466>; and <1161> to <1722> temperance <1466> patience <5281>; 
and <1161> to <1722> patience <5281> godliness <2150>;

2Pe 01:07  And <1161> to <1722> godliness <2150> brotherly 
kindness <5360>; and <1161> to <1722> brotherly kindness <5360> 
charity <26>.

2Pe 01:08  For <1063> if these things <5023> be <5225> (5723) in 
you <5213>, and <2532> abound <4121> (5723), they make <2525> 
(5719) you that ye shall neither <3756> be barren <692> nor 
<3761> unfruitful <175> in <1519> the knowledge <1922> of our 
<2257> Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>.

2Pe 01:09  But <1063> he that <3739> lacketh <3361> <3918> 
(5748) these things <5023> is <2076> (5748) blind <5185>, and 
cannot see afar off <3467> (5723), and hath forgotten <3024> 
<2983> (5631) that he was purged from <2512> his <846> old 
<3819> sins <266>.

2Pe 01:10  Wherefore <1352> the rather <3123>, brethren <80>, 
give diligence <4704> (5657) to make <4160> (5733) your <5216> 
calling <2821> and <2532> election <1589> sure <949>: for <1063> 
if ye do <4160> (5723) these things <5023>, ye shall <4218> <0> 
<4417> <0> never <3364> fall <4218> <4417> (5661):

2Pe 01:11  For <1063> so <3779> an entrance <1529> shall be 
ministered <2023> (5701) unto you <5213> abundantly <4146> into 
<1519> the everlasting <166> kingdom <932> of our <2257> Lord 
<2962> and <2532> Saviour <4990> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>.

2Pe 01:12 ¶ Wherefore <1352> I will <272> <0> not <3756> be 
negligent <272> (5692) to put <5279> <0> you <5209> always <104> 
in remembrance <5279> (5721) of <4012> these things <5130>, 
though <2539> ye know <1492> (5761) them, and <2532> be 
established <4741> (5772) in <1722> the present <3918> (5752) 
truth <225>.

2Pe 01:13  Yea <1161>, I think it <2233> (5736) meet <1342>, as 
long as <1909> <3745> I am <1510> (5748) in <1722> this <5129> 
tabernacle <4638>, to stir <1326> <0> you <5209> up <1326> 
(5721) by <1722> putting you in remembrance <5280>;

2Pe 01:14  Knowing <1492> (5761) that <3754> shortly <5031> I 
must <2076> (5748) put off <595> this my <3450> tabernacle 
<4638>, even <2532> as <2531> our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus 
<2424> Christ <5547> hath shewed <1213> (5656) me <3427>.

2Pe 01:15  Moreover <1161> <2532> I will endeavour <4704> (5692) 
that ye <5209> may be able <2192> (5721) after <3326> my <1699> 
decease <1841> to have <4160> (5733) these things <5130> always 
<1539> in remembrance <3420>.

2Pe 01:16 ¶ For <1063> we have <1811> <0> not <3756> followed 
<1811> (5660) cunningly devised <4679> (5772) fables <3454>, 
when we made known <1107> (5656) unto you <5213> the power 
<1411> and <2532> coming <3952> of our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus 
<2424> Christ <5547>, but <235> were <1096> (5679) eyewitnesses 
<2030> of his <1565> majesty <3168>.

2Pe 01:17  For <1063> he received <2983> (5631) from <3844> God 
<2316> the Father <3962> honour <5092> and <2532> glory <1391>, 
when there came <5342> (5685) such <5107> a voice <5456> to him 
<846> from <5259> the excellent <3169> glory <1391>, This <3778> 
is <2076> (5748) my <3450> beloved <27> Son <5207>, in <1519> 
whom <3739> I <1473> am well pleased <2106> (5656).

2Pe 01:18  And <2532> this <5026> voice <5456> which came <5342> 
(5685) from <1537> heaven <3772> we <2249> heard <191> (5656), 
when we were <5607> (5752) with <4862> him <846> in <1722> the 
holy <40> mount <3735>.

2Pe 01:19 ¶ We have <2192> (5719) also <2532> a more sure <949> 
word <3056> of prophecy <4397>; whereunto <3739> ye do <4160> 
(5719) well <2573> that ye take heed <4337> (5723), as <5613> 
unto a light <3088> that shineth <5316> (5730) in <1722> a dark 
<850> place <5117>, until <2193> <3739> the day <2250> dawn 
<1306> (5661), and <2532> the day star <5459> arise <393> (5661) 
in <1722> your <5216> hearts <2588>:

2Pe 01:20  Knowing <1097> (5723) this <5124> first <4412>, that 
<3754> no <3756> <3956> prophecy <4394> of the scripture <1124> 
is <1096> (5736) of any private <2398> interpretation <1955>.

2Pe 01:21  For <1063> the prophecy <4394> came <5342> (5681) not 
<3756> in old time <4218> by the will <2307> of man <444>: but 
<235> holy <40> men <444> of God <2316> spake <2980> (5656) as 
they were moved <5342> (5746) by <5259> the Holy <40> Ghost 
<4151>.

2Pe 02:01 ¶ But <1161> there were <1096> (5633) false prophets 
<5578> also <2532> among <1722> the people <2992>, even <2532> 
as <5613> there shall be <2071> (5704) false teachers <5572> 
among <1722> you <5213>, who <3748> privily shall bring in 
<3919> (5692) damnable <684> heresies <139>, even <2532> denying 
<720> (5740) the Lord <1203> that bought <59> (5660) them <846>, 
and bring <1863> (5723) upon themselves <1438> swift <5031> 
destruction <684>.

2Pe 02:02  And <2532> many <4183> shall follow <1811> (5692) 
their <846> pernicious ways <684>; by reason of <1223> whom 
<3739> the way <3598> of truth <225> shall be evil spoken of 
<987> (5701).

2Pe 02:03 ¶ And <2532> through <1722> covetousness <4124> shall 
they with feigned <4112> words <3056> make merchandise <1710> 
(5695) of you <5209>: whose <3739> judgment <2917> now of a long 
time <1597> lingereth <691> (5719) not <3756>, and <2532> their 
<846> damnation <684> slumbereth <3573> (5719) not <3756>.

2Pe 02:04  For <1063> if <1487> God <2316> spared <5339> (5662) 
not <3756> the angels <32> that sinned <264> (5660), but <235> 
cast them down to hell <5020> (5660), and delivered <3860> 
(5656) them into chains <4577> of darkness <2217>, to be 
reserved <5083> (5772) unto <1519> judgment <2920>;

2Pe 02:05  And <2532> spared <5339> (5662) not <3756> the old 
<744> world <2889>, but <235> saved <5442> (5656) Noah <3575> 
the eighth <3590> person, a preacher <2783> of righteousness 
<1343>, bringing in <1863> (5660) the flood <2627> upon the 
world <2889> of the ungodly <765>;

2Pe 02:06  And <2532> turning <5077> <0> the cities <4172> of 
Sodom <4670> and <2532> Gomorrha <1116> into ashes <5077> (5660) 
condemned <2632> (5656) them with an overthrow <2692>, making 
<5087> (5761) them an ensample <5262> unto those that after 
should <3195> (5723) live ungodly <764> (5721);

2Pe 02:07 ¶ And <2532> delivered <4506> (5673) just <1342> Lot 
<3091>, vexed <2669> (5746) with <5259> the filthy <766> 
conversation <391> of <1722> the wicked <113>:

2Pe 02:08  (For <1063> that righteous man <1342> dwelling <1460> 
(5723) among <1722> them <846>, in seeing <990> and <2532> 
hearing <189>, vexed <928> (5707) his righteous <1342> soul 
<5590> from day <2250> to <1537> day <2250> with their unlawful 
<459> deeds <2041>;)

2Pe 02:09  The Lord <2962> knoweth <1492> (5758) how to deliver 
<4506> (5738) the godly <2152> out of <1537> temptations <3986>, 
and <1161> to reserve <5083> (5721) the unjust <94> unto <1519> 
the day <2250> of judgment <2920> to be punished <2849> (5746):

2Pe 02:10 ¶ But <1161> chiefly <3122> them that walk <4198> 
(5740) after <3694> the flesh <4561> in <1722> the lust <1939> 
of uncleanness <3394>, and <2532> despise <2706> (5723) 
government <2963>. Presumptuous <5113> are they, selfwilled 
<829>, they are not <3756> afraid <5141> (5719) to speak evil 
<987> (5723) of dignities <1391>.

2Pe 02:11  Whereas <3699> angels <32>, which are <5607> (5752) 
greater in <3187> power <2479> and <2532> might <1411>, bring 
<5342> (5719) not <3756> railing <989> accusation <2920> against 
<2596> them <846> before <3844> the Lord <2962>.

2Pe 02:12  But <1161> these <3778>, as <5613> natural <5446> 
brute <249> beasts <2226>, made <1080> (5772) to <1519> be taken 
<259> and <2532> destroyed <5356>, speak evil <987> (5723) of 
<1722> the things that <3739> they understand not <50> (5719); 
and shall utterly perish <2704> (5691) in <1722> their own <846> 
corruption <5356>;

2Pe 02:13  And shall receive <2865> (5697) the reward <3408> of 
unrighteousness <93>, as they that count <2233> (5740) it 
pleasure <2237> to riot <5172> in <1722> the day time <2250>. 
Spots <4696> they are and <2532> blemishes <3470>, sporting 
themselves <1792> (5723) with <1722> their own <846> deceivings 
<539> while they feast <4910> (5740) with you <5213>;

2Pe 02:14  Having <2192> (5723) eyes <3788> full <3324> of 
adultery <3428>, and <2532> that cannot cease from <180> sin 
<266>; beguiling <1185> (5723) unstable <793> souls <5590>: an 
heart <2588> they have <2192> (5723) exercised <1128> (5772) 
with covetous practices <4124>; cursed <2671> children <5043>:

2Pe 02:15  Which have forsaken <2641> (5631) the right <2117> 
way <3598>, and are gone astray <4105> (5681), following <1811> 
(5660) the way <3598> of Balaam <903> the son of Bosor <1007>, 
who <3739> loved <25> (5656) the wages <3408> of unrighteousness 
<93>;

2Pe 02:16  But <1161> was <2192> (5627) rebuked <1649> for his 
<2398> iniquity <3892>: the dumb <880> ass <5268> speaking 
<5350> (5674) with <1722> man’s <444> voice <5456> forbad <2967> 
(5656) the madness <3913> of the prophet <4396>.

2Pe 02:17  These <3778> are <1526> (5748) wells <4077> without 
water <504>, clouds <3507> that are carried <1643> (5746) with 
<5259> a tempest <2978>; to whom <3739> the mist <2217> of 
darkness <4655> is reserved <5083> (5769) for <1519> ever <165>.

2Pe 02:18  For <1063> when they speak <5350> (5726) great 
swelling <5246> words of vanity <3153>, they allure <1185> 
(5719) through <1722> the lusts <1939> of the flesh <4561>, 
through much wantonness <766>, those that were clean <3689> 
escaped <668> (5631) from them who live <390> (5746) in <1722> 
error <4106>.

2Pe 02:19  While they promise <1861> (5740) them <846> liberty 
<1657>, they themselves <846> are <5225> (5723) the servants 
<1401> of corruption <5356>: for <1063> of whom <3739> a man 
<5100> is overcome <2274> (5766), <2532> of the same <5129> is 
he brought in bondage <1402> (5769).

2Pe 02:20  For <1063> if <1487> after they have escaped <668> 
(5631) the pollutions <3393> of the world <2889> through <1722> 
the knowledge <1922> of the Lord <2962> and <2532> Saviour 
<4990> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, they are <1707> <0> again 
<3825> entangled <1707> (5651) therein <5125>, and <1161> 
overcome <1096> (5754) <2274> (5736), the latter end <2078> is 
worse <5501> with them <846> than the beginning <4413>.

2Pe 02:21  For <1063> it had been <2258> (5713) better <2909> 
for them <846> not <3361> to have known <1921> (5760) the way 
<3598> of righteousness <1343>, than <2228>, after they have 
known <1921> (5631) it, to turn <1994> (5658) from <1537> the 
holy <40> commandment <1785> delivered <3860> (5685) unto them 
<846>.

2Pe 02:22  But <1161> it is happened <4819> (5758) unto them 
<846> according to <3588> the true <227> proverb <3942>, The dog 
<2965> is turned <1994> <0> to <1909> his own <2398> vomit 
<1829> again <1994> (5660); and <2532> the sow <5300> that was 
washed <3068> (5671) to <1519> her wallowing <2946> in the mire 
<1004>.

2Pe 03:01 ¶ This <5026> second <1208> epistle <1992>, beloved 
<27>, I <1125> <0> now <2235> write <1125> (5719) unto you 
<5213>; in <1722> both which <3739> I stir up <1326> (5719) your 
<5216> pure <1506> minds <1271> by way <1722> of remembrance 
<5280>:

2Pe 03:02  That ye may be mindful <3415> (5683) of the words 
<4487> which were spoken before <4280> (5772) by <5259> the holy 
<40> prophets <4396>, and <2532> of the commandment <1785> of us 
<2257> the apostles <652> of the Lord <2962> and <2532> Saviour 
<4990>:

2Pe 03:03 ¶ Knowing <1097> (5723) this <5124> first <4412>, that 
<3754> there shall come <2064> (5695) in <1909> the last <2078> 
days <2250> scoffers <1703>, walking <4198> (5740) after <2596> 
their <846> own <2398> lusts <1939>,

2Pe 03:04  And <2532> saying <3004> (5723), Where <4226> is 
<2076> (5748) the promise <1860> of his <846> coming <3952>? for 
<1063> since <575> <3739> the fathers <3962> fell asleep <2837> 
(5681), all things <3956> continue <3779> <1265> (5719) as they 
were from <575> the beginning <746> of the creation <2937>.

2Pe 03:05  For <1063> this <5124> they <846> willingly <2309> 
(5723) are ignorant of <2990> (5719), that <3754> by the word 
<3056> of God <2316> the heavens <3772> were <2258> (5713) of 
old <1597>, and <2532> the earth <1093> standing <4921> (5761) 
out of <1537> the water <5204> and <2532> in <1223> the water 
<5204>:

2Pe 03:06  Whereby <1223> <3739> the world <2889> that then was 
<5119>, being overflowed <2626> (5685) with water <5204>, 
perished <622> (5639):

2Pe 03:07  But <1161> the heavens <3772> and <2532> the earth 
<1093>, which are now <3568>, by the same <846> word <3056> are 
<1526> (5748) kept in store <2343> (5772), reserved <5083> 
(5746) unto fire <4442> against <1519> the day <2250> of 
judgment <2920> and <2532> perdition <684> of ungodly <765> men 
<444>.

2Pe 03:08 ¶ But <1161>, beloved <27>, be <2990> <0> not <3361> 
<5209> ignorant <2990> (5720) of this one <1520> thing <5124>, 
that <3754> one <3391> day <2250> is with <3844> the Lord <2962> 
as <5613> a thousand <5507> years <2094>, and <2532> a thousand 
<5507> years <2094> as <5613> one <3391> day <2250>.

2Pe 03:09 ¶ The Lord <2962> is <1019> <0> not <3756> slack 
<1019> (5719) concerning his promise <1860>, as <5613> some men 
<5100> count <2233> (5736) slackness <1022>; but <235> is 
longsuffering <3114> (5719) to <1519> us-ward <2248>, not <3361> 
willing <1014> (5740) that any <5100> should perish <622> (5641),
 but <235> that all <3956> should come <5562> (5658) to <1519> 
repentance <3341>.

2Pe 03:10  But <1161> the day <2250> of the Lord <2962> will 
come <2240> (5692) as <5613> a thief <2812> in <1722> the night 
<3571>; in <1722> the which <3739> the heavens <3772> shall pass 
away <3928> (5695) with a great noise <4500>, and <1161> the 
elements <4747> shall melt <3089> (5701) with fervent heat 
<2741> (5746), the earth <1093> also <2532> and <2532> the works 
<2041> that are therein <1722> <846> shall be burned up <2618> 
(5691).

2Pe 03:11 ¶ Seeing then <3767> that all <3956> these things 
<5130> shall be dissolved <3089> (5746), what manner <4217> of 
persons ought <1163> (5748) ye <5209> to be <5225> (5721) in 
<1722> all holy <40> conversation <391> and <2532> godliness 
<2150>,

2Pe 03:12  Looking for <4328> (5723) and <2532> hasting <4692> 
(5723) unto the coming <3952> of the day <2250> of God <2316>, 
wherein <1223> <3739> the heavens <3772> being on fire <4448> 
(5746) shall be dissolved <3089> (5701), and <2532> the elements 
<4747> shall melt <5080> (5743) with fervent heat <2741> (5746)?

2Pe 03:13  Nevertheless <1161> we <4328> <0>, according to 
<2596> his <846> promise <1862>, look for <4328> (5719) new 
<2537> heavens <3772> and <2532> a new <2537> earth <1093>, 
wherein <1722> <3739> dwelleth <2730> (5719) righteousness 
<1343>.

2Pe 03:14  Wherefore <1352>, beloved <27>, seeing that ye look 
for <4328> (5723) such things <5023>, be diligent <4704> (5657) 
that ye may be found <2147> (5683) of him <846> in <1722> peace 
<1515>, without spot <784>, and <2532> blameless <298>.

2Pe 03:15  And <2532> account <2233> (5737) that the 
longsuffering <3115> of our <2257> Lord <2962> is salvation 
<4991>; even as <2531> our <2257> beloved <27> brother <80> Paul 
<3972> also <2532> according to <2596> the wisdom <4678> given 
<1325> (5685) unto him <846> hath written <1125> (5656) unto you 
<5213>;

2Pe 03:16  As <5613> also <2532> in <1722> all <3956> his 
epistles <1992>, speaking <2980> (5723) in <1722> them <846> of 
<4012> these things <5130>; in <1722> which <3739> are <2076> 
(5748) some things <5100> hard to be understood <1425>, which 
<3739> they that are unlearned <261> and <2532> unstable <793> 
wrest <4761> (5719), as <5613> they do also <2532> the other 
<3062> scriptures <1124>, unto <4314> their <846> own <2398> 
destruction <684>.

2Pe 03:17  Ye <5210> therefore <3767>, beloved <27>, seeing ye 
know these things before <4267> (5723), beware <5442> (5732) 
lest <3363> ye also <1601> <0>, being led away <4879> (5685) 
with the error <4106> of the wicked <113>, fall from <1601> 
(5632) your own <2398> stedfastness <4740>.

2Pe 03:18  But <1161> grow <837> (5720) in <1722> grace <5485>, 
and <2532> in the knowledge <1108> of our <2257> Lord <2962> and 
<2532> Saviour <4990> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>. To him <846> 
be glory <1391> both <2532> now <3568> and <2532> for <1519> 
ever <165> <2250>. Amen <281>.
