1 Simon Peter Πέτρος Petros G4074 , bondman and apostle ἀπόστολος apostolos G652 of Jesus Ἰησοῦ Iēsou G2424 Christ Χριστοῦ Christou G5547 , to them that have received like precious faith πίστιν pistin G4102 with us through [ the ] righteousness δικαιοσύνῃ dikaiosunē G1343 of our God θεοῦ theou G2316 and Saviour Jesus Ἰησοῦ Iēsou G2424 Christ Χριστοῦ.¶ Christou G5547 : 3 As his divine θείας theias G2304 power δυνάμεως dunameōs G1411 has given to us all things πάντα panta G3956 which relate to life ζωὴν zōēn G2222 and godliness εὐσέβειαν eusebeian G2150 , through the knowledge ἐπιγνώσεως epignōseōs G1922 of him that has called καλέσαντος kalesantos G2564 us by glory δόξῃ doxē G1391 and virtue, 4 through which he has given to us the greatest G3173 and precious τίμια timia G5093 promises , that through these ye may become γένησθε genēsthe G1096 partakers κοινωνοὶ koinōnoi G2844 of [ the ] divine θείας theias G2304 nature φύσεως phuseōs G5449 , having escaped the corruption that is in the world κόσμῳ kosmō G2889 through lust G1939 . 5 But for this very reason also G2532 , using therewith all diligence G4710 , in your faith πίστει pistei G4102 have also G2532 virtue, in virtue knowledge γνῶσιν, gnōsin G1108 , 6 in knowledge γνώσει gnōsei G1108 temperance, in temperance endurance ὑπομονήν, hupomonēn G5281 , in endurance ὑπομονῇ hupomonēa G5281 godliness εὐσέβειαν, eusebeian G2150 , 7 in godliness εὐσεβείᾳ eusebeia G2150 brotherly φιλαδελφίαν, philadelphian G5360 love ἀγάπην. agapēn G26 , in brotherly φιλαδελφίᾳ philadelphia G5360 love G26 love G26 : 8 for these things ταῦτα tauta G3778 existing and abounding in you make [ you ] to be neither idle ἀργοὺς argous G692 nor unfruitful ἀκάρπους akarpous G175 as regards the knowledge ἐπίγνωσιν.¶ epignōsin G1922 of our Lord κυρίου kuriou G2962 Jesus Ἰησοῦ Iēsou G2424 Christ Χριστοῦ Christou G5547 ; 9 for he with whom these things ταῦτα, tauta G3778 are G1510 not present is G1510 blind τυφλός tuphlos G5185 , short-sighted , and has forgotten the purging of his former sins G265 . 10 Wherefore the rather μᾶλλον, mallon G3123 , brethren , use diligence to make G4160 your calling κλῆσιν klēsin G2821 and election ἐκλογὴν eklogēn G1589 sure βεβαίαν bebaian G949 , for doing these things ταῦτα tauta G3778 ye will never fall; 11 for thus G3779 shall the entrance into the everlasting kingdom βασιλείαν basileian G932 of our Lord κυρίου kuriou G2962 and Saviour Jesus Ἰησοῦ Iēsou G2424 Christ Χριστοῦ.¶ Christou G5547 be richly πλουσίως plousiōs G4146 furnished unto you . 12 Wherefore I will be careful to put you always ἀεὶ aei G104 in mind of these things τούτων toutōn G3778 , although knowing [ them ] and established in the present truth ἀληθείᾳ. alētheia G225 . 13 But I account it right δίκαιον dikaion G1342 , as long ὅσον hoson G3745 as I am G1510 in this tabernacle σκηνώματι, skēnōmati G4638 , to stir you up by putting [ you ] in remembrance, 14 knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle σκηνώματός skēnōmatos G4638 is G1510 speedily [ to take place ], as also καὶ kai G2532 our Lord κύριος kurios G2962 Jesus Ἰησοῦς Iēsous G2424 Christ Χριστὸς Christos G5547 has manifested to me ; 15 but I will use diligence, that after my departure ye should have also καὶ kai G2532 , at any time , [ in your power] to call to mind these things τούτων toutōn G3778 . 16 For we have not made known to you the power δύναμιν dunamin G1411 and coming of our Lord κυρίου kuriou G2962 Jesus Ἰησοῦ Iēsou G2424 Christ Χριστοῦ Christou G5547 , following cleverly imagined fables , but having been eyewitnesses of his majesty μεγαλειότητος. megaleiotētos G3168 . 17 For he received G2983 from God θεοῦ theou G2316 [ the ] Father πατρὸς patros G3962 honour and glory δόξαν doxan G1391 , such a voice φωνῆς phōnēs G5456 being G1510 uttered to him by the excellent glory δόξης· doxēs G1391 : This is G1510 my beloved ἀγαπητός agapētos G27 Son υἱός huios G5207 , in whom I have found my delight; 18 and this voice φωνὴν phōnēn G5456 we heard G191 uttered from heaven οὐρανοῦ ouranou G3772 , being ὄντες ontes G1510 with him on the holy ἁγίῳ hagiō G40 mountain ὄρει.¶ orei G3735 . 19 And we have the prophetic word λόγον, logon G3056 [ made G4160 ] surer, to which ye do well καλῶς kalōs G2573 taking heed ( as to a lamp λύχνῳ luchnō G3088 shining φαίνοντι phainonti G5316 in an obscure place τόπῳ topō G5117 ) until [ the ] day ἡμέρα hēmera G2250 dawn and [ the ] morning star arise in your hearts καρδίαις kardiais G2588 ; 20 knowing γινώσκοντες ginōskontes G1097 this first πρῶτον prōton G4413 , that [ the scope of ] no prophecy προφητεία prophēteia G4394 of scripture γραφῆς graphēs G1124 is had from its own ἰδίας idias G2398 particular interpretation , 21 for prophecy προφητεία prophēteia G4394 was not ever G4218 uttered by [ the ] will of man G444 , but holy ἁγίου hagiou G40 men G444 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 spake under the power of [ the ] Holy G40 Spirit πνεύματος pneumatos G4151 . ← 1 Peter 5 2 Peter 2 → Commentaries on 2 Peter 1 Darby Bible — 1889 — Public Domain
