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 shewed 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.
2PE-2:1 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.
2PE-2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason
of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
2PE-2:3 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.
2PE-2:4 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;
2PE-2:5 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;
2PE-2:6 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;
2PE-2:7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy
conversation of the wicked:
2PE-2:8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing
and hearing, vexed [his] righteous soul from day to day with
[their] unlawful deeds;)
2PE-2:9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of
temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment
to be punished:
2PE-2:10 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.
2PE-2:11 Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might,
bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.
2PE-2:12 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;
2PE-2:13 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;
2PE-2:14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease
from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised
with covetous practices; cursed children:
2PE-2:15 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;
2PE-2:16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass
speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.
2PE-2:17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried
with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for
ever.
2PE-2:18 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.
2PE-2:19 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.
2PE-2:20 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.
2PE-2:21 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.
2PE-2:22 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.
2PE-3:1 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in
[both] which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:
