2Peter 1

1. Simon <4613> Peter <4074>, a servant <1401> and an apostle
<0652> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, to them that have obtained
<2975> like <2472> precious <2472> faith < 4102> with us through
<1722> the righteousness <1343> of God <2316> and our Saviour
<4990> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>:

2 Grace <5485> and peace <1515> be multiplied < 4129> unto you
through <1722> the knowledge <1922> of God < 2316>, and of Jesus
<2424> our Lord <2962>,

3 According <5613> as his divine <2304> power < 1411> hath
given <1433> unto us all <3956> things that [pertain] unto life
<2222> and godliness <2150>, through <1223> the knowledge <1922>
of him that hath called <2564> us to glory <1391> and virtue
<0703>:

4 Whereby <3739> are given <1433> unto us exceeding great
<3176> and precious <5093> promises <1862>: that by these <5130>
ye might be partakers <2844> of the divine <2304> nature <5449>,
having escaped <0668> the corruption <5356> that is in the world
<2889> through <1722> lust <1939>.

5. And beside <0846> this <5124>, giving <3923> all diligence
<4710>, add <2023> to your <5216> faith < 4102> virtue <0703>;
and to virtue <0703> knowledge <1108>;

6 And to knowledge <1108> temperance <1466>; and to temperance
<1466> patience <5281>; and to patience <5281> godliness <2150>;

7 And to godliness <2150> brotherly <5360> kindness <5360>;
and to brotherly <5360> kindness <5360> charity < 0026>.

8 For if these <5023> things be in you, and abound < 4121>,
they make <2525> [you that ye shall] neither <3756> [be] barren
<0692> nor <3761> unfruitful <0175> in the knowledge <1922> of
our Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>.

9 But he that lacketh <3918> these <5023> things is blind
<5185>, and cannot <3467> see <3467> afar < 3467> off, and hath
forgotten <2983> that he was purged <2512> from his old <3819>
sins <0266>.

10 Wherefore <1352> the rather <3123>, brethren < 0080>, give
diligence <4710> to make <4160> your <5216> calling <2821> and
election <1589> sure <0949>: for if ye do <4160> these <5023>
things, ye shall never <4219> fall <4417>:

11 For so <3779> an entrance <1529> shall be ministered <2023>
unto you abundantly <4146> into <1519> the everlasting <0166>
kingdom <0932> of our Lord <2962> and Saviour < 4990> Jesus
<2424> Christ <5547>.

12. Wherefore <1352> I will not be negligent <0272> to put
<5279> you always <0104> in remembrance <5179> of these <5130>
things, though <2539> ye know <1492> [them], and be established
<4741> in the present <3918> truth <0225>.

13 Yea <1161>, I think <2233> it meet <1342>, as long as I am
<1510> in this <5129> tabernacle <4638>, to stir <1326> you up
by putting <5279> [you] in remembrance <5280>;

14 Knowing <1492> that shortly <5031> I must put <0595> off
<0595> [this <3588>] my tabernacle <4638>, even <2532> as our
Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> hath shewed <1213> me.

15 Moreover <2532> I will endeavour <4704> that ye may be able
<2192> after <3326> my decease <1841> to have these <5130>
things always <1539> in remembrance <3420>.

16. For we have not followed <1811> cunningly devised < 4679>
fables <3454>, when we made <1107> known <1107> unto you the
power <1411> and coming <3952> of our Lord < 2962> Jesus <2424>
Christ <5547>, but were eyewitnesses <2030> of his majesty
<3168>.

17 For he received <2983> from God <2316> the Father <3962>
honour <5092> and glory <1391>, when there came < 5342> such
<5107> a voice <5456> to him from the excellent < 3169> glory
<1391>, This <3778> is my beloved <0027> Son <5207>, in whom
<3739> I am well <2106> pleased <2106>.

18 And this <5026> voice <5456> which came < 5342> from heaven
<3772> we heard <0191>, when we were with him in the holy <0040>
mount <3735>.

19. We have <2192> also <2532> a more sure < 0949> word <3056>
of prophecy <4397>; whereunto <3739> ye do < 4160> well <2573>
that ye take heed <0433>, as unto a light <3088> that shineth
<5316> in a dark <0850> place <5117>, until < 2193> the day
<2250> dawn <1306>, and the day <5459> star < 5459> arise <0393>
in your <5216> hearts <2588>:

20 Knowing <1097> this <5124> first <4412>, that no <3756>
prophecy <4394> of the scripture <1124> is of any private <2398>
interpretation <1955>.

21 For the prophecy <4394> came <5342> not in old <4218> time
<4218> by the will <2307> of man <0444>: but holy <0040> men
<0444> of God <2316> spake <2980> [as they were] moved <5342> by
the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151>.

2Peter 2

1. But there were false <5578> prophets <5578> also <2532>
among <1722> the people <2992>, even <2532> as there shall be
false <5572> teachers <5572> among <1722> you, who <3748>
privily <3919> shall bring <3918> in damnable < 0684> heresies
<0139>, even <2532> denying <0720> the Lord < 1203> that bought
<0059> them, and bring <3918> upon themselves < 1438> swift
<5031> destruction <0684>.

2 And many <4183> shall follow <1811> their pernicious <0684>
ways <0684>; by reason <1223> of whom <3739> the way <3598> of
truth <0225> shall be evil <0987> spoken <0987> of.

3. And through <1722> covetousness <4124> shall they with
feigned <4112> words <3056> make <1710> merchandise of you:
whose <3739> judgment <2917> now of a long time < 1597> lingereth
<0691> not, and their damnation <0684> slumbereth < 3573> not.

4 For if <1487> God <2316> spared <5339> not the angels <0032>
that sinned <0264>, but cast <5020> [them] down to hell <5020>,
and delivered <3860> [them] into chains <4577> of darkness
<2217>, to be reserved <5083> unto judgment < 2920>;

5 And spared <5339> not the old <0744> world < 2889>, but saved
<5442> Noah <3575> the eighth <3590> [person], a preacher <2783>
of righteousness <1343>, bringing <1863> in the flood <2627>
upon the world <2889> of the ungodly <0765>;

6 And turning <5077> the cities <4172> of Sodom < 4670> and
Gomorrha <1116> into ashes <5077> condemned < 2632> [them] with
an overthrow <2692>, making <4160> [them] an ensample <5262>
unto those <3588> that after <3195> should < 3195> live ungodly
<0764>;

7. And delivered <4506> just <1342> Lot <3091>, vexed <2669>
with the filthy <0766> conversation <0391> of the wicked <0113>:

8 (For that righteous <1342> man dwelling <1460> among <1722>
them, in seeing <0990> and hearing <0189>, vexed < 0928> [his]
righteous <1342> soul <5590> from day <2250> to day <2250> with
[their] unlawful <0459> deeds <2041>;)

9 The Lord <2962> knoweth <1492> how to deliver < 4506> the
godly <2152> out of temptations <3986>, and to reserve <5083>
the unjust <0094> unto the day <2250> of judgment < 2920> to be
punished <2849>:

10. But chiefly <3122> them that walk <4198> after <3694> the
flesh <4561> in the lust <1939> of uncleanness < 3394>, and
despise <2706> government <2963>. Presumptuous < 5113> [are they],
selfwilled <0829>, they are not afraid <5141> to speak <0987>
evil <0987> of dignities <1391>.

11 Whereas <3699> angels <0032>, which are greater <3187> in
power <2479> and might <1411>, bring <5342> not railing <0989>
accusation <2920> against <2596> them before < 3844> the Lord
<2962>.

12 But these <3778>, as natural <5446> brute < 0249> beasts
<2226>, made <1080> to be taken <0259> and destroyed <5356>,
speak <0987> evil <0987> of the things that they understand
<0050> not; and shall utterly <2704> perish < 2704> in their own
<0848> corruption <5356>;

13 And shall receive <2865> the reward <3408> of
unrighteousness <0093>, [as] they that count <2233> it pleasure
<2237> to riot <5172> in the day <2250> time. Spots <4696> [they
are] and blemishes <3470>, sporting <1792> themselves with their
own <0848> deceivings <0539> while they feast < 4910> with you;

14 Having <2192> eyes <3788> full <3324> of adultery <3428>,
and that cannot <0180> cease <0180> from sin < 0266>; beguiling
<1185> unstable <0793> souls <5590>: an heart <2588> they have
<2192> exercised <1128> with covetous <4124> practices; cursed
<2671> children <5043>:

15 Which have forsaken <2641> the right <2117> way <3598>, and
are gone <4105> astray <4105>, following <1811> the way <3598>
of Balaam <0903> [the son] of Bosor <1007>, who < 3739> loved
<0025> the wages <3408> of unrighteousness < 0093>;

16 But was rebuked <1649> for his iniquity <3892>: the dumb
<0880> ass <5268> speaking <5350> with man's <0444> voice <5456>
forbad <2967> the madness <3913> of the prophet < 4396>.

17 These <3778> are wells <4077> without < 0504> water <0504>,
clouds <3507> that are carried <1643> with a tempest <2978>; to
whom <3739> the mist <2217> of darkness <4655> is reserved
<5083> for ever <0165>.

18 For when they speak <5350> great <5246> swelling <5246>
[words] of vanity <3153>, they allure <1185> through <1722> the
lusts <1939> of the flesh <4561>, [through much] wantonness
<0766>, those <3588> that were clean <3689> escaped <0668> from
them who live <0390> in error <4106>.

19 While they promise <1861> them liberty <1657>, they
themselves <0846> are the servants <1401> of corruption <5356>:
for of whom <3739> a man <5100> is overcome < 2274>, of the same
<3778> is he brought <1402> in bondage <1402>.

20 For if <1487> after they have escaped <0668> the pollutions
<3393> of the world <2889> through <1722> the knowledge <1922>
of the Lord <2962> and Saviour <4990> Jesus < 2424> Christ <5547>,
they are again <3825> entangled <1707> therein < 5125>, and
overcome <2274>, the latter <2078> end <2078> is worse <5501>
with them than the beginning <4413>.

21 For it had been <2258> better <2909> for them not to have
known <1921> the way <3598> of righteousness < 1343>, than <2228>,
after they have known <1921> [it], to turn <1994> from the holy
<0040> commandment <1785> delivered <3860> unto them.

22 But it is happened <4819> unto them according to the true
<0227> proverb <3942>, The dog <2965> [is] turned <1994> to his
own <2398> vomit <1829> again <1994>; and the sow <5300> that
was washed <3068> to her wallowing <2946> in the mire <1004>.

2Peter 3

1. This <5026> second <1208> epistle <1992>, beloved <0027>, I
now <2236> write <1125> unto you; in [both] which < 3739> I stir
<1326> up your <5216> pure <1506> minds < 1271> by way <1722> of
remembrance <5280>:

2 That ye may be mindful <3403> of the words <4487> which were
spoken <4280> before <4280> by the holy <0040> prophets <4396>,
and of the commandment <1785> of us the apostles < 0652> of the
Lord <2962> and Saviour <4990>:

3. Knowing <1097> this <5124> first <4412>, that there shall
come <2064> in the last <2078> days <2250> scoffers <1703>,
walking <4198> after <2596> their own <2398> lusts <1939>,

4 And saying <3004>, Where <4226> is the promise <1860> of his
coming <3952>? for since <3739> the fathers < 3962> fell asleep
<2837>, all <3956> things continue <1265> as [they were] from
the beginning <0746> of the creation <2937>.

5 For this <5124> they willingly <2309> are ignorant <2990> of,
that by the word <3056> of God <2316> the heavens <3772> were
of old <1597>, and the earth <1093> standing < 4921> out of the
water <5204> and in the water <5204>:

6 Whereby <3739> the world <2889> that then < 5119> was, being
overflowed <2626> with water <5204>, perished < 0622>:

7 But the heavens <3772> and the earth <1093>, which are now
<3568>, by the same <0846> word <3056> are kept <2343> in store
<2343>, reserved <5083> unto fire <4442> against <1519> the day
<2250> of judgment <2920> and perdition <0684> of ungodly <0765>
men <0444>.

8. But, beloved <0027>, be not ignorant <2990> of this <5124>
one <1520> thing, that one <3391> day <2250> [is] with the Lord
<2962> as a thousand <5507> years <2094>, and a thousand <5507>
years <2094> as one <3391> day <2250>.

9. The Lord <2962> is not slack <1019> concerning <4314> his
promise <1860>, as some <5100> men count <2233> slackness <1022>;
but is longsuffering to us-ward <2248>, not willing < 1014> that
any <5100> should perish <0622>, but that all < 3956> should come
<5562> to repentance <3341>.

10 But the day <2250> of the Lord <2962> will come <2240> as a
thief <2812> in the night <3571>; in the which < 3739> the
heavens <3772> shall pass <3928> away with a great noise <4500>,
and the elements <4747> shall melt <3089> with fervent heat
<2741>, the earth <1093> also <2532> and the works <2041> that
are therein <0846> shall be burned <2618> up.

11. [Seeing] then <3767> [that] all <3956> these < 5130> things
shall be dissolved <3089>, what <4217> manner < 4217> [of
persons] ought <1163> ye to be in [all] holy <0040> conversation
<0391> and godliness <2150>,

12 Looking <4328> for and hasting <4692> unto the coming
<3952> of the day <2250> of God <2316>, wherein <3757> the
heavens <3772> being on fire <4448> shall be dissolved <3089>,
and the elements <4747> shall melt <5080> with fervent heat
<2741>?

13 Nevertheless <1161> we, according <2596> to his promise
<1862>, look <4328> for new <2537> heavens < 3772> and a new
<2537> earth <1093>, wherein <3757> dwelleth <2730>
righteousness <1343>.

14 Wherefore <1352>, beloved <0027>, seeing that ye look
<4328> for such <5023> things, be diligent < 4704> that ye may be
found <2147> of him in peace <1515>, without < 0784> spot <0784>,
and blameless <0298>.

15 And account <2233> [that] the longsuffering < 3115> of our
Lord <2962> [is] salvation <4991>; even <2531> as our beloved
<0027> brother <0080> Paul <3972> also < 2532> according <2596>
to the wisdom <4678> given <1325> unto him hath written <1125>
unto you;

16 As also <2532> in all <3956> [his] epistles < 1992>,
speaking <2980> in them of these <5130> things; in which <3739>
are some <5100> things hard <1425> to be understood <1425>,
which <3739> they that are unlearned <0261> and unstable <0793>
wrest <4761>, as [they do] also <2532> the other < 3062>
scriptures <1124>, unto their own <2398> destruction <0684>.

17 Ye therefore <3767>, beloved <0027>, seeing ye know <4267>
[these things] before <4267>, beware <5442> lest < 3361> ye also
<4879>, being led <4879> away <4879> with the error <4106> of
the wicked <0113>, fall <1601> from your <3588> own <2398>
stedfastness <4740>.

18 But grow <0837> in grace <5485>, and [in] the knowledge
<1108> of our Lord <2962> and Saviour <4990> Jesus <2424> Christ
<5547>. To him [be] glory <1391> both <2532> now <3568> and for
ever <0165>. Amen <0281>.
