2 Peter 1:14-21
14because I knowG1492 thatG3754 this tentG1473G3588G4638 willG1510 soonG5031 be laid asideG595, asG2531G2532 ourG1473 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 has made clearG1213 to meG1473. 15AndG1161G2532 I will make every effort to ensureG4704 that afterG3326 myG1699 departureG1841, youG4771 willG2192 be able to recallG4160G3420 these thingsG3778 at all timesG1539.
16ForG1063 we did not followG3756G1811 cleverly devisedG4679 fablesG3454 when we made knownG1107 to youG4771 theG3588 powerG1411 andG2532 comingG3952 of ourG1473 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, butG235 we wereG1096 eyewitnessesG2030 of HisG1565 majestyG3168. 17ForG1063 He receivedG2983 honorG5092 andG2532 gloryG1391 fromG3844 GodG2316 the FatherG3962 when the voiceG5456 cameG5342 to HimG846 fromG5259 theG3588 MajesticG3169 GloryG1391, sayingG5107, “ThisG3778 isG1510 MyG1473 belovedG27 SonG5207, inG1519 whomG3739 IG1473 am well pleasedG2106.”1 18AndG2532 we ourselvesG1473 heardG191 thisG3778 voiceG5456G5342 fromG1537 heavenG3772 when we wereG1510 withG4862 HimG846 onG1722 theG3588 holyG40 mountainG3735.
19We also haveG2532G2192 theG3588 wordG3056 of the prophetsG4397 as confirmed beyond doubtG949. And you will doG4160 wellG2573 to pay attentionG4337 to itG3739, asG5613 to a lampG3088 shiningG5316 inG1722 a darkG850 placeG5117, untilG2193 the dayG2250 dawnsG1306 andG2532 the morning starG5459 risesG393 inG1722 yourG4771 heartsG2588. 20Above allG4412, you must understandG1097 thatG3754 noG3756G3956 prophecyG4394 of ScriptureG1124 comesG1096 from one’s ownG2398 interpretationG1955. 21ForG1063 noG3756 such prophecyG4394 was everG4218 brought forthG5342 by the willG2307 of manG444, butG235 menG444 spokeG2980 fromG575 GodG2316 as they were carried alongG5342 byG5259 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151.
