2 Peter 1:14-21
14knowingG3609 that 1the layingG595 asideG595 of my earthly dwellingG4638 is imminentG5031, 2as alsoG2532 our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 has madeG1213 clearG1213 to me. 15And I will alsoG2532 be diligentG4704 that at anyG1539 timeG1539 afterG3326 my 3departureG1841 you will be ableG2192 to callG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778 to mindG3420.
16For we did not followG1811 cleverlyG4679 devisedG4679 4talesG3454 when we madeG1107 knownG1107 to you the 5powerG1411 and comingG3952 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, but we were 6eyewitnessesG2030 of His majestyG3168. 17For when He receivedG2983 honorG5092 and gloryG1391 from GodG2316 the FatherG3962, suchG5107 a 78declarationG5456 as this was madeG5342 to Him by the 9MajesticG3169 GloryG1391: “ThisG3778 is 10My belovedG27 SonG5207 with whomG3739 I amG2106 wellG2106 pleasedG2106”-- 18and we ourselvesG1473 heardG191 thisG3778 11declarationG5456 madeG5342 from heavenG3772 when we were with Him on the 12holyG40 mountainG3735.
19And so we haveG2192 13the propheticG4397 wordG3056 made moreG949 14sureG949, to whichG3739 you doG4160 wellG2573 to payG4337 attentionG4337 as to 15a lampG3088 shiningG5316 in a darkG850 placeG5117, untilG2193 the 16dayG2250 dawnsG1306 and the 17morningG5459 starG5459 arisesG393 18in your heartsG2588. 20But 19knowG1097 thisG3778 firstG4413 of all, that 20noG3956G3756 prophecyG4394 of ScriptureG1124 21becomesG1096 a matter of 22someone’s ownG2398 interpretationG1955, 21for 23noG3756 prophecyG4394 was everG4218 madeG5342 by an actG2307 of humanG444 willG2307, but menG444 24movedG5342 by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 spokeG2980 from GodG2316.
