Greeting

1Simeon Peter, a slave and an apostle of Jesus Christ: To those who have obtained a faith of equal privilege with ours through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ.G4826G4074G1401G2532G652G2424G5547G2975G2472G4102G2254G1722G1343G2316G2532G2257G4990G2424G5547
2May grace and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.G5485G2532G1515G4129G5213G1722G1922G2316G2532G2424G2257G2962

Growth in the Faith

3For His divine power has given us everything required for life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness.G5613G846G2304G1411G1433G2254G3956G4314G2222G2532G2150G1223G1922G2564G2248G1223G1391G2532G703
4By these He has given us very great and precious promises, so that through them you may share in the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world because of evil desires.G1223G3739G1433G2254G3176G2532G5093G1862G2443G1223G5130G1096G2844G2304G5449G668G5356G1722G2889G1722G1939
5For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with goodness, goodness with knowledge,G2532G1161G846G5124G3923G3956G4710G2023G1722G5216G4102G703G1161G1722G703G1108
6knowledge with self-control, self-control with endurance, endurance with godliness,G1161G1722G1108G1466G1161G1722G1466G5281G1161G1722G5281G2150
7godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love.G1161G1722G2150G5360G1161G1722G5360G26
8For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they will keep you from being useless or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.G1063G5023G5225G5213G2532G4121G2525G3756G692G3761G175G1519G1922G2257G2962G2424G5547
9The person who lacks these things is blind and shortsighted, and has forgotten the cleansing from his past sins.G1063G3739G3361G3918G5023G2076G5185G3467G3024G2983G2512G846G3819G266
10Therefore, brothers, make every effort to confirm your calling and election, because if you do these things you will never stumble.G1352G3123G80G4704G4160G5216G2821G2532G1589G949G1063G4160G5023G4218G4417G3364G4218G4417
11For in this way, entry into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly supplied to you.G1063G3779G1529G2023G5213G4146G1519G166G932G2257G2962G2532G4990G2424G5547
12Therefore I will always remind you about these things, even though you know them and are established in the truth you have.G1352G272G3756G272G5279G5209G104G5279G4012G5130G2539G1492G2532G4741G1722G3918G225
13I consider it right, as long as I am in this tent, to wake you up with a reminder,G1161G2233G1342G1909G3745G1510G1722G5129G4638G1326G5209G1326G1722G5280
14knowing that I will soon lay aside my tent, as our Lord Jesus Christ has also shown me.G1492G3754G5031G2076G595G3450G4638G2532G2531G2257G2962G2424G5547G1213G3427
15And I will also make every effort that after my departure you may be able to recall these things at any time.G1161G2532G4704G5209G2192G3326G1699G1841G4160G5130G1539G3420

The Trustworthy Prophetic Word

16For we did not follow cleverly contrived myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; instead, we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.G1063G1811G3756G1811G4679G3454G1107G5213G1411G2532G3952G2257G2962G2424G5547G235G1096G2030G1565G3168
17For when He received honor and glory from God the Father, a voice came to Him from the Majestic Glory: This is My beloved Son. I take delight in Him!G1063G2983G3844G2316G3962G5092G2532G1391G5342G5107G5456G846G5259G3169G1391G3778G2076G3450G27G5207G1519G3739G1473G2106
18And we heard this voice when it came from heaven while we were with Him on the holy mountain.G2532G5026G5456G5342G1537G3772G2249G191G5607G4862G846G1722G40G3735
19So we have the prophetic word strongly confirmed. You will do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts.G2192G2532G949G3056G4397G3739G4160G2573G4337G5613G3088G5316G1722G850G5117G2193G3739G2250G1306G2532G5459G393G1722G5216G2588
20First of all, you should know this: no prophecy of Scripture comes from one's own interpretation,G1097G5124G4412G3754G3756G3956G4394G1124G1096G2398G1955
21because no prophecy ever came by the will of man; instead, moved by the Holy Spirit, men spoke from God.G1063G4394G5342G3756G4218G2307G444G235G40G444G2316G2980G5342G5259G40G4151
