2 Peter Chapter 1

1Simon PeterG4074, a servantG1401 and apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to them that have obtained a like precious faithG4102 with us in the righteousnessG1343 of our GodG2316 and the Saviour JesusG2424 ChristG5547: 2GraceG5485 to you and peaceG1515 be multipliedG4129 in the knowledgeG1922 of GodG2316 and of JesusG2424 our LordG2962; 3seeing that his divineG2304 powerG1411 hath granted unto us all thingsG3956 that pertain unto lifeG2222 and godlinessG2150, through the knowledgeG1922 of him that calledG2564 us by his ownG2398 gloryG1391 and virtue; 4whereby he hath granted unto us his preciousG5093 and exceeding greatG3173 promises; that through these ye may becomeG1096 partakersG2844 of the divineG2304 natureG5449, having escaped from the corruption that is in the worldG2889 by lustG1939. 5Yea, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligenceG4710, in your faithG4102 supplyG2023 virtue; and in your virtue knowledgeG1108; 6and in your knowledgeG1108 self-control; and in your self-control patience; and in your patience godlinessG2150; 7and in your godlinessG2150 brotherlyG5360 kindness; and in your brotherlyG5360 kindness loveG26. 8For if these thingsG3778 are yours and abound, they make you to be not idleG692 nor unfruitfulG175 unto the knowledgeG1922 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 9For he that lacketh these thingsG3778 isG1510 blindG5185, seeing only what isG1510 near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sinsG265. 10Wherefore, brethren, give the moreG3123 diligence to makeG4160 your callingG2821 and electionG1589 sureG949: for if ye do these thingsG3778, ye shall never stumbleG4417: 11for thusG3779 shall be richlyG4146 suppliedG2023 unto you the entrance into the eternalG166 kingdomG932 of our LordG2962 and Saviour JesusG2424 ChristG5547.

12Wherefore I shall be ready alwaysG104 to put you in remembranceG5279 of these thingsG3778, though ye know them, and are established in the truthG225 which is with you. 13And I think it rightG1342, as longG3745 as I amG1510 in this tabernacleG4638, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance; 14knowing that the putting off of my tabernacleG4638 cometh swiftly, evenG2532 as our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 signified unto me. 15Yea, I will give diligence that at every time ye may be able after my decease to call these thingsG3778 to remembrance. 16For we did not followG1811 cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the powerG1411 and coming of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, but we were eyewitnesses of his majestyG3168. 17For he receivedG2983 from GodG2316 the FatherG3962 honorG5092 and gloryG1391, when there wasG1510 borne such a voiceG5456 to him by the Majestic GloryG1391, This isG1510 my belovedG27 SonG5207, in whom I amG1510 well pleased: 18and this voiceG5456 we ourselves heardG191 borne out of heavenG3772, when we wereG1510 with him in the holyG40 mountG3735. 19And we have the wordG3056 of prophecy madeG4160 more sureG949; whereunto ye do wellG2573 that ye takeG4337 heed, as unto a lampG3088 shiningG5316 in a dark placeG5117, until the dayG2250 dawn, and the day-star arise in your heartsG2588: 20knowingG1097 this firstG4413, that no prophecyG4394 of scriptureG1124 is of private interpretation. 21For no prophecyG4394 everG4218 came by the will of manG444: but menG444 spake from GodG2316, being moved by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151.
