2Peter:1:1 @
Simeon Peter ,
a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ ,
to those who did obtain a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ :
ylt @
2Peter:1:2 @
Grace to you ,
and peace be multiplied in the acknowledgement of God and of Jesus our Lord !
ylt @
2Peter:1:3 @
As all things to us His divine power (
the things pertaining unto life and piety )
hath given ,
through the acknowledgement of him who did call us through glory and worthiness ,
ylt @
2Peter:1:4 @
through which to us the most great and precious promises have been given ,
that through these ye may become partakers of a divine nature ,
having escaped from the corruption in the world in desires .
ylt @
2Peter:1:5 @
And this same also --
all diligence having brought in besides ,
superadd in your faith the worthiness ,
and in the worthiness the knowledge ,
ylt @
2Peter:1:6 @
and in the knowledge the temperance ,
and in the temperance the endurance ,
and in the endurance the piety ,
ylt @
2Peter:1:7 @
and in the piety the brotherly kindness ,
and in the brotherly kindness the love ;
ylt @
2Peter:1:8 @
for these things being to you and abounding ,
do make [
you ]
neither inert nor unfruitful in regard to the acknowledging of our Lord Jesus Christ ,
ylt @
2Peter:1:9 @
for he with whom these things are not present is blind ,
dim-sighted ,
having become forgetful of the cleansing of his old sins ;
ylt @
2Peter:1:10 @
wherefore ,
the rather ,
brethren ,
be diligent to make stedfast your calling and choice ,
for these things doing ,
ye may never stumble ,
ylt @
2Peter:1:11 @
for so ,
richly shall be superadded to you the entrance into the age-during reign of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ .
ylt @
2Peter:1:12 @
Wherefore ,
I will not be careless always to remind you concerning these things ,
though ,
having known them ,
and having been established in the present truth ,
ylt @
2Peter:1:13 @
and I think right ,
so long as I am in this tabernacle ,
to stir you up in reminding [
you ],
ylt @
2Peter:1:14 @
having known that soon is the laying aside of my tabernacle ,
even as also our Lord Jesus Christ did shew to me ,
ylt @
2Peter:1:15 @
and I will be diligent that also at every time ye have ,
after my outgoing ,
power to make to yourselves the remembrance of these things .
ylt @
2Peter:1:16 @
For ,
skilfully devised fables not having followed out ,
we did make known to you the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ ,
but eye-witnesses having become of his majesty --
ylt @
2Peter:1:17 @
for having received from God the Father honour and glory ,
such a voice being borne to him by the excellent glory : '
This is My Son --
the beloved ,
in whom I was well pleased ;'
ylt @
2Peter:1:18 @
and this voice we --
we did hear ,
out of heaven borne ,
being with him in the holy mount .
ylt @
2Peter:1:19 @
And we have more firm the prophetic word ,
to which we do well giving heed ,
as to a lamp shining in a dark place ,
till day may dawn ,
and a morning star may arise --
in your hearts ;
ylt @
2Peter:1:20 @
this first knowing ,
that no prophecy of the Writing doth come of private exposition ,
ylt @
2Peter:1:21 @
for not by will of man did ever prophecy come ,
but by the Holy Spirit borne on holy men of God spake .
