11Simon Peter, a 2bond-servant and 3apostle of Jesus Christ,

To those who have received 4a faith of the same 5kind as ours, 6by 7the righteousness of 8our God and Savior, Jesus Christ: 29Grace and peace be multiplied to you in 10the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; 3seeing that His 11divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true 12knowledge of Him who 13called us 14by His own glory and 15excellence.
