2 Petrova 1
1 Od Simona Petra, sluge i apostola Isusa Hrista, onima što su primili s nama jednu èasnu vjeru u pravdi Boga našega i spasa Isusa Hrista:
Simon 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 Savior Jesus Christ:
2 Blagodat i mir da vam se umnoži poznavanjem Boga i Hrista Isusa Gospoda našega.
Grace and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
3 Buduæi da su nam sve božanstvene sile njegove, koje trebaju k životu i pobožnosti, darovane poznanjem onoga koji nas pozva slavom i dobrodjetelju,
According as his divine power hath given to us all things that [pertain] to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4 Kroz koje se nama darovaše èasna i prevelika obeæanja, da njih radi imate dijel u Božijoj prirodi, ako uteèete od tjelesnijeh želja ovoga svijeta.
Whereby are given to 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.
5 I na samo ovo okrenite sve staranje svoje da pokažete u vjeri svojoj dobrodjetelj, a u dobrodjetelji razum,
And besides this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6 A u razumu uzdržanje, a u uzdržanju trpljenje, a u trpljenju pobožnost,
And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
7 A u pobožnosti bratoljublje, a u bratoljublju ljubav.
And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
8 Jer kad je ovo u vama, i množi se, neæe vas ostaviti lijene niti bez ploda u poznanju Gospoda našega Isusa Hrista.
For 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.
9 A ko nema ovoga slijep je, i pipa zaboravivši oèišæenje od starijeh svojijeh grijeha.
But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purified from his old sins.
10 Zato, braæo, postarajte se još veæma da svoju službu i izbor utvrdite; jer èineæi ovo neæete pogriješiti nikad;
Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
11 Jer vam se tako obilno dopusti ulazak u vjeèno carstvo Gospoda našega i spasa Isusa Hrista. (aiōnios g166)
For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
12 Zato se neæu olijeniti opominjati vam jednako ovo, ako i znate i utvrðeni ste u ovoj istini;
Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know [them], and are established in the present truth.
13 Jer mislim da je pravo dokle sam god u ovom tijelu da vas budim opominjanjem,
Indeed, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting [you] in remembrance;
14 Znajuæi da æu skoro tijelo svoje odbaciti kao što mi kaza i Gospod naš Isus Hristos.
Knowing that shortly I must put off [this] my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shown me.
15 A trudiæu se svakojako da se i po rastanku mojemu možete opominjati ovoga;
Moreover, I will endeavor that ye may be able, after my decease, to have these things always in remembrance.
16 Jer vam ne pokazasmo sile i dolaska Gospoda našega Isusa Hrista po pripovijetkama mudro izmišljenijem, nego smo sami vidjeli slavu njegovu.
For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye-witnesses of his majesty.
17 Jer on primi od Boga oca èast i slavu kad doðe k njemu takovi glas: ovo je sin moj ljubazni, koji je po mojoj volji.
For he received from God the Father honor 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.
18 I ovaj glas mi èusmo gdje siðe s neba kad bijasmo s njim na svetoj gori.
And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him on the holy mount.
19 I imamo najpouzdaniju proroèku rijeè, i dobro èinite što pazite na nju, kao na vidjelo koje svijetli u tamnome mjestu, dokle dan ne osvane i danica se ne rodi u srcima vašima.
We have also a more sure word of prophecy; to which ye do well that ye take heed, as to a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts:
20 I ovo znajte najprije da nijedno proroštvo književno ne biva po svome kazivanju;
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 Jer nikad proroštvo ne bi od èovjeèije volje, nego nauèeni od svetoga Duha govoriše sveti Božiji ljudi.
For prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke [as they were] moved by the Holy Spirit.
