2 Peter 1:1
|
|
Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus
Christ, to them that have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness
of our God and the Saviour Jesus Christ: |
|
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:2
|
|
Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the
knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; |
| |
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:3
|
|
seeing that his divine power hath granted unto
us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him
that called us by his own glory and virtue; |
| |
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:4
|
|
whereby
he hath granted unto us his precious and exceeding great promises; that through
these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption
that is in that world by lust. |
| |
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:5
|
|
Yea, and for this very cause adding on your
part all diligence, in your faith supply virtue; and in your virtue knowledge;
|
| |
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:6
|
|
and in your knowledge self-control; and in your
self-control patience; and in your patience godliness; |
| |
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:7
|
|
and in your godliness brotherly kindness; and
in your brotherly kindness love. |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:8
|
|
For if these things are yours and abound, they
make you to be not idle nor unfruitful unto the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
|
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:9
|
|
For he that lacketh these things is blind, seeing
only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins. |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:10
|
|
Wherefore, brethren, give the more diligence
to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never
stumble: |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:11
|
|
for thus shall be richly supplied unto you the
entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:12
|
|
Wherefore I shall be ready always to put you
in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and are established in the
truth which is with you. |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:13
|
|
And I think it right, as long as I am in this
tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance; |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:14
|
|
knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle
cometh swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ signified unto me. |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:15
|
|
Yea, I will give diligence that at every time
ye may be able after my decease to call these things to remembrance. |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:16
|
|
For we did not follow cunningly devised fables,
when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but
we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:17
|
|
For he received from God the Father honor and
glory, when there was borne such a voice to him by the Majestic Glory, This is
my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased: |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:18
|
|
and this voice we ourselves heard borne out
of heaven, when we were with him in the holy mount. |
|
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:19
|
|
And we have the word of prophecy made more sure;
whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a lamp shining in a dark place,
until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts: |
| |
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:20
|
|
knowing this first, that no prophecy of scripture
is of private interpretation. |
| |
|
|
|
2 Peter 1:21
|
|
For no prophecy ever came by the will of man:
but men spake from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit. |
