2 Peter 1:16-19

16For we did not followG1811 cleverlyG4679 devisedG4679 1talesG3454 when we madeG1107 knownG1107 to you the 2powerG1411 and comingG3952 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, but we were 3eyewitnessesG2030 of His majestyG3168. 17For when He receivedG2983 honorG5092 and gloryG1391 from GodG2316 the FatherG3962, suchG5107 an 45utteranceG5456 as this was 6madeG5342 to Him by the 7MajesticG3169 GloryG1391, “ThisG3778 is My belovedG27 SonG5207 with whomG3739 I amG2106 well-pleasedG2106”-- 18and we ourselvesG2249 heardG191 thisG3778 8utteranceG5456 madeG5342 from heavenG3772 when we were with Him on the 9holyG40 mountainG3735.

1910So we haveG2192 11the propheticG4397 wordG3056 made moreG949 12sureG949, to whichG3739 you doG4160 wellG2573 to payG4337 attentionG4337 as to 13a lampG3088 shiningG5316 in a darkG850 placeG5117, untilG2193 the 14dayG2250 dawnsG1306 and the 15morningG5459 starG5459 arisesG393 16in your heartsG2588.
