2 Peter - Chapter: 1


1:1	Simon 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.
1:2	Grace and peace be multiplied vnto you through the knowledge of God, and of Iesus our Lord,
1:3	According 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.
1:4	Whereby 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.
1:5	And besides this, giuing all diligence, adde to your faith, vertue; and to vertue knowledge;
1:6	And to knowledge, temperance; and to temperance, patience; and to patience, godlinesse;
1:7	And to godlinesse, brotherly kindnesse; and to brotherly kindnesse, charitie.
1:8	For 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.
1:9	But hee that lacketh these things, is blind, and cannot see farre off, and hath forgotten that hee was purged from his old sinnes.
1:10	Wherefore, the rather, brethren, giue diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye doe these things, ye shall neuer fall.
1:11	For so an entrance shall be ministred vnto you abundantly, into the euerlasting kingdome of our Lord and Sauiour Iesus Christ.
1:12	Wherefore 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.
1:13	Yea, I thinke it meete, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stirre you vp, by putting you in remembrance:
1:14	Knowing that shortly I must put off this my Tabernacle, euen as our Lord Iesus Christ hath shewed mee.
1:15	Moreouer, I will endeuour, that you may bee able after my decease, to haue these things alwayes in remembrance.
1:16	For 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.
1:17	For 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.
1:18	And this voice which came from heauen wee heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
1:19	We 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:
1:20	Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture is of any priuate Interpretation:
1:21	For 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.


1:1	Symon Peter a seruaut and an Apostle of Iesus Christ.Vnto the which haue optayned like faith with vs in the righteousnes that commeth of oure God, and Sauioure Iesus Christ.
1:2	Grace and peace be multiplied with you thorow the knowlege of God and of Iesus Christ oure LORDE.
1:3	For so moch as his godly power hath geuen vs all thinges (that pertayne vnto life and godlynes) thorow the knowlege of him that hath called vs by his owne glorie and power,
1:4	wherby the excellent and most greate promyses are geue vnto vs: namely, that ye by the same shulde be partakers of the godly nature, yf ye flye the corrupte lust of the worlde:
1:5	Geue ye all youre diligence therfore here vnto, and in youre faith mynister vertue: in vertue, knowlege:
1:6	in knowlege, temperancy: in temperancy, pacience: in pacience, godlynes:
1:7	in godlynes, brotherly loue: in brotherly loue, generall loue.
1:8	For yf these thinges be plenteous in you, they will not let you be ydle nor vnfrutefull in ye knowlege of oure LORDE Iesus Christ.
1:9	But he that lacketh these thinges, is blynde, & gropeth for the waye with the hade, and hath forgotten, that he was clensed from his olde synnes.
1:10	Wherfore (brethre) geue the more diligence, to make youre callynge and eleccion sure: for yf ye do soch thinges, ye shal not fall,
1:11	and by this meanes shal there be plenteously mynistred vnto you an entrynge in vnto ye euerlastinge kyngdome of oure LORDE and Sauioure Iesus Christ.
1:12	Therfore wil I not be necliget to put you allwayes in remembraunce of soch thinges: though ye knowe them youre selues, and be stablished in the present trueth.
1:13	Notwithstondinge I thinke it mete, as loge as I am in this tabernacle, to stere you vp by puttinge you in remembraunce.
1:14	For I am sure, that I must shortly put of my tabernacle, euen as oure LORDE Iesus Christ hath shewed vnto me.
1:15	Yet wyl I do my diligece, that allwaye after my departynge ye maye haue wherwith to kepe these thinges in remembraunce.
1:16	For we folowed not deceaueable fables, whan we declared vnto you the power and commynge of oure LORDE Iesus Christ: but with oure eyes we sawe his maiestie,
1:17	whan he receaued of God the father honoure & prayse, by a voyce that came vnto him from the excellent glory, after this maner: This is my deare sonne, in whom I haue delyte.
1:18	And this voyce herde we broughte downe fro heauen, whan we were with him on the holy mount.
1:19	We haue also a sure worde of prophecie, and ye do well that ye take hede thervnto, as vnto a lighte that shyneth in a darke place vntyll the daye dawne, and the daye starre aryse in youre hertes.
1:20	And this shal ye knowe first, that no prophecie in the scripture is done of eny priuate interpretacion.
1:21	For the prophecie was neuer broughte by the wyll of man, but the holy men of God spake, as they were moued of ye holy goost.


1:1	Simount Petre, seruaunt and apostle of `Jhesu Crist, to hem that han take with vs the euene feith, in the riytwisnesse of oure God and sauyour Jhesu Crist,
1:2	grace and pees be fillid to you, bi the knowing of oure Lord Jhesu Crist.
1:3	Hou alle thingis of his godlich vertu, that ben to lijf and pitee, ben youun to vs, bi the knowyng of hym, that clepide vs for his owne glorie and vertu.
1:4	Bi whom he yaf to vs moost preciouse biheestis; that bi these thingis ye schulen be maad felows of Goddis kynde, and fle the corrupcioun of that coueytise, that is in the world.
1:5	And bringe ye in alle bisynesse, and mynystre ye in youre feith vertu, and `in vertu kunnyng;
1:6	in kunnyng abstinence, in abstynence pacience, in pacience pitee;
1:7	in pitee, love of britherhod, and in loue of britherhod charite.
1:8	For if these ben with you, and ouercomen, thei schulen not make you voide, nethir with out fruyt, in the knowyng of oure Lord Jhesu Crist.
1:9	But to whom these ben not redi, he is blynd, and gropith with his hoond, and foryetith the purgyng of his elde trespassis.
1:10	Wherfor, britheren, be ye more bisi, that by goode werkis ye make youre clepyng and chesyng certeyn;
1:11	for ye doynge these thingis schulen not do synne ony tyme. For thus the entryng in to euerlastynge kyngdom of oure Lord and sauyour Jhesu Crist, schal be mynystrid to you plenteuousli.
1:12	For which thing Y schal bigynne to moneste you euere more of these thingis; and Y wole that ye be kunnynge, and confermyd in this present treuthe.
1:13	Forsothe Y deme iustli, as long as Y am in this tabernacle, to reise you in monesting; and Y am certeyn,
1:14	that the putting awei of my tabernacle is swift, bi this that oure Lord Jhesu Crist hath schewid to me.
1:15	But Y schal yyue bisynesse, and ofte after my deth ye haue mynde of these thingis.
1:16	For we not suynge vnwise talis, han maad knowun to you the vertu and the biforknowyng of oure Lord Jhesu Crist; but we weren maad biholderis of his greetnesse.
1:17	For he took of God the fadir onour and glorie, bi siche maner vois slidun doun to hym fro the greet glorie, This is my loued sone, in whom Y haue plesid to me; here ye hym.
1:18	And we herden this vois brouyt from heuene, whanne we weren with hym in the hooli hil.
1:19	And we han a saddere word of prophecie, to which ye yyuynge tent don wel, as to a lanterne that yyueth liyt in a derk place, til the dai bigynne to yyue liyt, and the dai sterre sprenge in youre hertis.
1:20	And firste vndurstonde ye this thing, that ech prophesie of scripture is not maad bi propre interpretacioun;
1:21	for prophesie was not brouyt ony tyme bi mannus wille, but the hooli men of God inspirid with the Hooli Goost spaken.
