11 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 .

12 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge

of God and of Jesus our Lord .

13 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 .

14 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 .

15 And beside this giving all diligence add to your faith

virtue and to virtue knowledge .

16 And to knowledge temperance and to temperance patience and

to patience godliness .

17 And to godliness brotherly kindness and to brotherly

kindness charity .

18 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 .

19 But he that lacketh these things is blind and cannot see

afar off and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins

110 Wherefore the rather brethren give diligence to make your

calling and election sure for if ye do these things ye shall

never fall .

111 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly

into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus

Christ .

112 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 .

113 Yea I think it meet as long as I am in this tabernacle to

stir you up by putting you in remembrance .

114 Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle even

as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me .

115 Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my

decease to have these things always in remembrance .

116 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 .

117 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 .

118 And this voice which came from heaven we heard when we were

with him in the holy mount .

119 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 .

120 Knowing this first that no prophecy of the scripture is of

any private interpretation .

121 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 .

* 21 But there were false prophets also among the people even

as there shall be false teachers among you who privily shall

bring in damnable heresies even denying the Lord that bought

them and bring upon themselves swift destruction .

22 And many shall follow their pernicious ways by reason of

whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of .

23 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make

merchandise of you whose judgment now of a long time lingereth

not and their damnation slumbereth not .

24 For if God spared not the angels that sinned but cast them

down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness to be

reserved unto judgment .

25 And spared not the old world but saved Noah the eighth

person a preacher of righteousness bringing in the flood upon

the world of the ungodly .

26 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes

condemned them with an overthrow making them an ensample unto

those that after should live ungodly .

27 And delivered just Lot vexed with the filthy conversation of

the wicked .

28 (For that righteous man dwelling among them in seeing and

hearing vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their

unlawful deeds .

29 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations

and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be

punished .

210 But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of

uncleanness and despise government Presumptuous are they

selfwilled they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities .

211 Whereas angels which are greater in power and might bring

not railing accusation against them before the Lord .

212 But these as natural brute beasts made to be taken and

destroyed speak evil of the things that they understand not and

shall utterly perish in their own corruption .

213 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness as they

that count it pleasure to riot in the day time Spots they are

and blemishes sporting themselves with their own deceivings

while they feast with you .

214 Having eyes full of adultery and that cannot cease from sin

beguiling unstable souls an heart they have exercised with

covetous practices cursed children .

215 Which have forsaken the right way and are gone astray

following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor who loved the wages

of unrighteousness .

216 But was rebuked for his iniquity the dumb ass speaking with

man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet .

217 These are wells without water clouds that are carried with

a tempest to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever .

218 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity they

allure through the lusts of the flesh through much wantonness

those that were clean escaped from them who live in error .

219 While they promise them liberty they themselves are the

servants of corruption for of whom a man is overcome of the same

is he brought in bondage .

220 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world

through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ they

are again entangled therein and overcome the latter end is worse

with them than the beginning .

221 For it had been better for them not to have known the way

of righteousness than after they have known it to turn from the

holy commandment delivered unto them .

222 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb

The dog is turned to his own vomit again and the sow that was

washed to her wallowing in the mire .

* 31 This second epistle beloved I now write unto you in both

which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance .

32 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before

by the holy prophets and of the commandment of us the apostles

of the Lord and Saviour .

33 Knowing this first that there shall come in the last days

scoffers walking after their own lusts .

34 And saying Where is the promise of his coming for since the

fathers fell asleep all things continue as they were from the

beginning of the creation .

35 For this they willingly are ignorant of that by the word of

God the heavens were of old and the earth standing out of the

water and in the water .

36 Whereby the world that then was being overflowed with water

perished .

37 But the heavens and the earth which are now by the same word

are kept in store reserved unto fire against the day of judgment

and perdition of ungodly men .

38 But beloved be not ignorant of this one thing that one day

is with the Lord as a thousand years and a thousand years as one

day .

39 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise as some men

count slackness but is longsuffering to us-ward not willing that

any should perish but that all should come to repentance .

310 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night

in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise and

the elements shall melt with fervent heat the earth also and the

works that are therein shall be burned up .

311 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved what

manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and

godliness .

312 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God

wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved and the

elements shall melt with fervent heat .

313 Nevertheless we according to his promise look for new

heavens and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness .

314 Wherefore beloved seeing that ye look for such things be

diligent that ye may be found of him in peace without spot and

blameless .

315 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation

even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom

given unto him hath written unto you .

316 As also in all his epistles speaking in them of these

things in which are some things hard to be understood which they

that are unlearned and unstable wrest as they do also the other

scriptures unto their own destruction .

317 Ye therefore beloved seeing ye know these things before

beware lest ye also being led away with the error of the wicked

fall from your own stedfastness .

318 But grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and

Saviour Jesus Christ To him be glory both now and for ever Amen .
