2 Peter 1
1 (Simon *NK+o) Peter a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ To those equally precious with ours having obtained a faith through [the] righteousness of the God of us and Savior Jesus Christ.
Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have received a faith as precious as ours:
2 Grace to you and peace would be multiplied in [the] knowledge of God and of Jesus the Lord of us.
Grace and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
3 Accordingly all things to us by the divine power of Him toward life and godliness having himself given through the knowledge of the [One who] having called us ([by His] own *N+KO) (glory *N+kO) and (excellence, *N+kO)
His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.
4 through which the precious and magnificent to us promises He has himself given, so that through these you may become of [the] divine partakers nature having escaped the in (the *no) world in desire decay.
Through these He has given us His precious and magnificent promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, now that you have escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
5 And very [reason] for this now earnestness all having brought in do supplement into the faith of you virtue, into and virtue knowledge,
For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith virtue; and to virtue, knowledge;
6 into then knowledge self-control, into then self-control endurance, into then endurance godliness,
and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness;
7 in then godliness brotherly affection, in then brotherly affection love.
and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.
8 These things for in you being and abounding neither idle nor unfruitful make [you] as to the of the Lord of us Jesus Christ knowledge.
For if you possess these qualities and continue to grow in them, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 In whomever for not are present these things, blind he is being short sighted, forgetfulness having received of the purification the former of him (sins. *NK+o)
But whoever lacks these traits is nearsighted to the point of blindness, having forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins.
10 Therefore rather, brothers, do be diligent sure your calling and election to make; these things for practicing certainly not shall you stumble at any time.
Therefore, brothers, strive to make your calling and election sure. For if you practice these things you will never stumble,
11 In this way for richly will be supplied to you the entrance into the eternal kingdom of the Lord of us and Savior Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
and you will receive a lavish reception into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
12 Therefore (I will be ready *N+KO) always you to remind concerning these things though knowing [them] and strengthened in the being present [in you] truth.
Therefore I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and are established in the truth you now have.
13 Right now I esteem it, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir up you by putting [you] in remembrance;
I think it is right to refresh your memory as long as I live in the tent of my body,
14 knowing that imminent is the putting off of the tabernacle of mine, even as also the Lord of us Jesus Christ has made clear to me.
because I know that this tent will soon be laid aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.
15 I will be diligent now also at every time to have for you after my departure these things a lasting remembrance to make.
And I will make every effort to ensure that after my departure, you will be able to recall these things at all times.
16 Not for contrived fables having followed we have made known to you the of the Lord of us Jesus Christ power and coming, but eyewitnesses having been of His majesty.
For we did not follow cleverly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.
17 Having received for from God [the] Father honor and glory a voice was brought to Him such as follows by the Majestic Glory: The Son of Mine beloved (of Mine *NO) this is, in whom I myself found delight.
For He received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to Him from the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
18 And this voice we ourselves heard from heaven having been brought with Him being in the holy mountain.
And we ourselves heard this voice from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain.
19 And we have more certain the prophetic word, to which well you do taking heed as to a lamp shining in [a] dark place until this day may have shone through may have shone through and [the] morning star may have arisen in the hearts of you;
We also have the word of the prophets as confirmed beyond doubt. And you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
20 this first knowing that any prophecy of Scripture of its own interpretation not is.
Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture comes from one’s own interpretation.
21 Not for by [the] will of man was brought prophecy at any time but by [the] Spirit Holy being carried spoke (from *N+KO) of God men.
For no such prophecy was ever brought forth by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
