2 Peter - Chapter: 1

>
1:1Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:
1:2Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
1:3According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
1:4Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
1:5And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
1:6And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
1:7And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
1:8For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1:9But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
1:10Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
1:11For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
1:12Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present truth.
1:13Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;
1:14Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.
1:15Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.
1:16For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
1:17For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
1:18And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
1:19We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
1:20Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
1:21For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

 

1:1Simon Peter, a seruant & an Apostle of Iesus Christ, to them that haue obtained like precious Faith with vs, through the righteousnes of God, and our Sauiour Iesus Christ.
1:2Grace and peace be multiplied vnto you through the knowledge of God, and of Iesus our Lord,
1:3According as his diuine power hath giuen vnto vs all things that pertain vnto life and godlines, through the knowledge of him that hath called vs to glory and vertue.
1:4Whereby are giuen vnto vs exceeding great and precious promises, that by these you might bee partakers of the diuine nature, hauing escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
1:5And besides this, giuing all diligence, adde to your faith, vertue; and to vertue knowledge;
1:6And to knowledge, temperance; and to temperance, patience; and to patience, godlinesse;
1:7And to godlinesse, brotherly kindnesse; and to brotherly kindnesse, charitie.
1:8For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that yee shall neither be barren, nor vnfruitfull in the knowledge of our Lord Iesus Christ.
1:9But hee that lacketh these things, is blind, and cannot see farre off, and hath forgotten that hee was purged from his old sinnes.
1:10Wherefore, the rather, brethren, giue diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye doe these things, ye shall neuer fall.
1:11For so an entrance shall be ministred vnto you abundantly, into the euerlasting kingdome of our Lord and Sauiour Iesus Christ.
1:12Wherefore I wil not be negligent to put you alwayes in remembrance of these things, though yee know them, and be stablished in the present trueth.
1:13Yea, I thinke it meete, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stirre you vp, by putting you in remembrance:
1:14Knowing that shortly I must put off this my Tabernacle, euen as our Lord Iesus Christ hath shewed mee.
1:15Moreouer, I will endeuour, that you may bee able after my decease, to haue these things alwayes in remembrance.
1:16For wee haue not followed cunningly deuised fables, when wee made knowen vnto you the power and comming of our Lord Iesus Christ, but were eye witnesses of his Maiestie.
1:17For hee receiued from God the Father, honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloued Sonne in whom I am well pleased.
1:18And this voice which came from heauen wee heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
1:19We haue also a more sure word of prophecie, whereunto yee doe well that ye take heede, as vnto a light that shineth in a darke place, vntill the day dawne, and the day starre arise in your hearts:
1:20Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture is of any priuate Interpretation:
1:21For the prophecie came not in olde time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moued by the holy Ghost.

 

1:1Simon Peter a seruaunt and an Apostle of Iesus Christ to them which have obtayned lyke precious fayth with vs in the rightewesnes that commeth of oure God and savioure Iesus Christ.
1:2Grace with you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Iesus oure Lorde.
1:3Accordinge as his godly power hath geven vnto vs all thinges that pertayne vnto lyfe and godlynes thorow the knowledge of him that hath called vs by vertue and glory
1:4by the meanes whereof are geven vnto vs excellent and moste greate promises that by the helpe of them ye shuld be partakers of the godly nature in that ye flye the corrupcion of worldy lust.
1:5And hervnto geve all diligence: in youre fayth minister vertve and in vertue knowledge
1:6and in knowledge temperancy and in temrancy pacience in pacience godlynes
1:7in godlynes brotherly kyndnes in brotherly kyndnes love.
1:8For yf these thinges be amonge you and are plenteous they wyll make you that ye nether shalbe ydle nor vnfrutefull in the knowledge of oure lorde Iesus Christ.
1:9But he yt lacketh these thynges is blynde and gropeth for ye waye with his honde and hath forgotten yt he was pourged from his olde synnes.
1:10Wherfore brethren geve the moare diligence forto make youre callynge and eleccion sure. For yf ye do soche thynges ye shall never erre.
1:11Ye and by this meanes an entrynge in shall be ministred vnto you aboundantly in to the everlastynge kyngdome of oure lorde and saveoure Iesus Christ.
1:12Wherfore I will not be necgligent to put you allwayes in remembraunce of soche thinges though that ye knowe them youre selves and be also stablisshed in the present trueth.
1:13Notwithstodinge I thynke yt mete (as longe as I am in this tabernacle) to stere you vp by puttynge you in remebraunce
1:14for as moch as I am sure howe that the tyme is at honde yt I must put of my tabernacle even as oure lorde Iesus Christ hath shewed me.
1:15I will enfource therfore that on every syde ye myght have wherwith to stere vp the remembraunce of these thynges after my departynge.
1:16For we folowed not decevable fables whe we openned vnto you the power and commynge of oure lorde Iesus Christ but with oure eyes we sawe his maieste:
1:17even then verely when he receaved of god the father honour and glory and when ther came soche a voyce to him from excellent glorie. This is my dere beloved sonne in whom I have delite.
1:18This voyce we hearde when it came from heven beynge with him in the holy mounte.
1:19We have also a right sure worde of prophesye wher vnto yf ye take hede as vnto a lyght yt shyneth in a darke place ye do wel vntill the daye dawne and the daye starre aryse in youre hertes.
1:20So that ye fyrst knowe this. that no prophesye in the scripture hath eny private interpretacio.
1:21For the scripture came never by the will of man: but holy men of god spake as they were moved by the holy goost.
