2 Peter 1

1 Confirming them in hope of increase of God's graces, 5 he exhorteth them, by faith, and good works, to make their calling sure: 12 whereof he is careful to remember them, knowing that his death is at hand: 16 and warneth them to be constant in the faith of Christ, who is the true Son of God, by the eyewitness of the Apostles beholding his majesty, and by the testimony of the Father, and the prophets.

 1:1 ¶ Simon 4826 Peter, 4074 a servant 1401 and 2532 an apostle 652 of Jesus 2424 Christ, 5547 to them that have obtained 2975 z5631 like precious 2472 faith 4102 with us 2254 through 1722 the righteousness 1343 of God 2316 and 2532 our 2257 Saviour 4990 Jesus 2424 Christ: 5547

 1:2 Grace 5485 and 2532 peace 1515 be multiplied 4129 z5684 unto you 5213 through 1722 the knowledge 1922 of God, 2316 and 2532 of Jesus 2424 our 2257 Lord, 2962

 1:3 According as 5613 his 846 divine 2304 power 1411 hath given 1433 z5772 unto us 2254 all things 3956 that x3588 [pertain] unto 4314 life 2222 and 2532 godliness, 2150 through 1223 the x3588 knowledge 1922 of him that hath called 2564 z5660 us 2248 to 1223 glory 1391 and 2532 virtue: 703

 1:4 Whereby 1223 3739 are given 1433 z5769 unto us 2254 exceeding great 3176 and 2532 precious 5093 promises: 1862 that 2443 by 1223 these 5130 ye might be 1096 z5638 partakers 2844 of the divine 2304 nature, 5449 having escaped 668 z5631 the x3588 corruption 5356 that is in 1722 the world 2889 through 1722 lust. 1939

 1:5 And 1161 y2532 beside y846 this, 5124 x846 x2532 giving 3923 z5660 all 3956 diligence, 4710 add 2023 z5657 to 1722 your 5216 faith 4102 virtue; 703 and 1161 to 1722 virtue 703 knowledge; 1108

 1:6 And 1161 to 1722 knowledge 1108 temperance; 1466 and 1161 to 1722 temperance 1466 patience; 5281 and 1161 to 1722 patience 5281 godliness; 2150

 1:7 And 1161 to 1722 godliness 2150 brotherly kindness; 5360 and 1161 to 1722 brotherly kindness 5360 charity. 26

 1:8 For 1063 if these things 5023 be 5225 z5723 in you, 5213 and 2532 abound, 4121 z5723 they make 2525 z5719 [you that ye shall] neither 3756 [be] barren 692 nor 3761 unfruitful 175 in 1519 the x3588 knowledge 1922 of our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ. 5547

 1:9 But 1063 he x3739 that y3739 lacketh 3361 3918 z5748 these things 5023 is 2076 z5748 blind, 5185 and cannot see afar off, 3467 z5723 and hath forgotten 3024 2983 z5631 that he was purged x2512 from y2512 his y846 x848 old 3819 sins. 266

 1:10 Wherefore 1352 the rather, 3123 brethren, 80 give diligence 4704 z5657 to make 4160 z5733 your 5216 calling 2821 and 2532 election 1589 sure: 949 for 1063 if ye do 4160 z5723 these things, 5023 ye shall y4218 y4417 z0 never 3364 x4218 fall: 4417 y4218 z5661

 1:11 For 1063 so 3779 an entrance 1529 shall be ministered y2023 z5701 unto x2023 you 5213 abundantly 4146 into 1519 the x3588 everlasting 166 kingdom 932 of our 2257 Lord 2962 and 2532 Saviour 4990 Jesus 2424 Christ. 5547

 1:12 Wherefore 1352 I will y272 z0 not 3756 be negligent 272 z5692 to put y5279 z0 you y5209 always y104 in remembrance 5279 z5721 x5209 x104 of 4012 these things, 5130 though 2539 ye know 1492 z5761 [them], and 2532 be established 4741 z5772 in 1722 the x3588 present 3918 z5752 truth. 225

 1:13 Yea, 1161 I think x2233 it y2233 z5736 meet, 1342 as long as 1909 3745 I am 1510 z5748 in 1722 this 5129 tabernacle, 4638 to stir y1326 z0 you y5209 up 1326 z5721 x5209 by y1722 putting [you] in remembrance; 5280 x1722

 1:14 Knowing 1492 z5761 that 3754 shortly 5031 I must 2076 z5748 put off 595 [this] my 3450 tabernacle, 4638 even 2532 as 2531 our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 hath shewed 1213 z5656 me. 3427

 1:15 Moreover 1161 y2532 I will endeavour 4704 z5692 that x2532 ye 5209 may be able y2192 z5721 after 3326 my 1699 decease 1841 to have y4160 z5733 x2192 these things 5130 always 1539 in remembrance. 3420 x4160

 1:16 For 1063 we have y1811 z0 not 3756 followed 1811 z5660 cunningly devised 4679 z5772 fables, 3454 when we made known 1107 z5656 unto you 5213 the x3588 power 1411 and 2532 coming 3952 of our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ, 5547 but 235 were 1096 z5679 eyewitnesses 2030 of his 1565 majesty. 3168

 1:17 For 1063 he received 2983 z5631 from 3844 God 2316 the Father 3962 honour 5092 and 2532 glory, 1391 when there came 5342 z5685 such 5107 a voice 5456 to him 846 from 5259 the x3588 excellent 3169 glory, 1391 This 3778 is 2076 z5748 my 3450 beloved 27 Son, 5207 in 1519 whom 3739 I 1473 am well pleased. 2106 z5656

 1:18 And 2532 this 5026 voice 5456 which came 5342 z5685 from 1537 heaven 3772 we 2249 heard, 191 z5656 when we were 5607 z5752 with 4862 him 846 in 1722 the x3588 holy 40 mount. 3735

 1:19 We have 2192 z5719 also 2532 a more sure 949 word 3056 of prophecy; 4397 whereunto 3739 ye do 4160 z5719 well 2573 that ye take heed, 4337 z5723 as 5613 unto a light 3088 that shineth 5316 z5730 in 1722 a dark 850 place, 5117 until 2193 y3757 the x3739 day 2250 dawn, 1306 z5661 and 2532 the day star 5459 arise 393 z5661 in 1722 your 5216 hearts: 2588

 1:20 Knowing 1097 z5723 this 5124 first, 4412 that 3754 no 3756 3956 prophecy 4394 of the scripture 1124 is 1096 z5736 of any private 2398 interpretation. 1955

 1:21 For 1063 the prophecy 4394 came 5342 z5681 not 3756 in old time 4218 by the will 2307 of man: 444 but 235 holy 40 men 444 of God 2316 spake 2980 z5656 [as they were] moved 5342 z5746 by 5259 the Holy 40 Ghost. 4151
