Young's Literal Translation
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
:
Simeon
Peter, a servant and an
apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who did
obtain
a
like
precious
faith
with
us
in
the righteousness of our God and Saviour
Jesus Christ:
Grace and peace be multiplied to
you
through
the knowledge
of God and of Jesus our Lord .
Grace to
you,
and peace be multiplied in
the acknowledgement
of God and of Jesus our Lord !
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.
As
all
things
to
us
His divine power (the
things
pertaining
unto
life and piety)
hath
given,
through the acknowledgement
of him who did
call
us through
glory and worthiness,
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.
through which
to
us the
most
great
and precious
promises have
been
given
, that through these
ye
may become partakers of a
divine nature, having
escaped from
the corruption in the world in
desires.
For
this very
reason
, make
every
effort
to
add
to
your faith virtue;
and
to
virtue
, knowledge ;
And
this same
also
--
all
diligence
having
brought
in
besides
, superadd
in
your faith the
worthiness
, and
in
the
worthiness
the
knowledge ,
and to
knowledge, self-control;
and to
self-control
, perseverance;
and to
perseverance
, godliness;
and in
the
knowledge the
temperance
, and in
the
temperance
the
endurance
, and in
the
endurance
the
piety
,
and to
godliness,
brotherly kindness ;
and to
brotherly kindness ,
love .
and in
the
piety
the
brotherly kindness ,
and in
the
brotherly kindness the
love ;
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 .
for these things
being
to you and abounding,
do
make
`you'
neither
inert
nor
unfruitful
in regard
to
the
acknowledging
of our Lord Jesus Christ ,
But
whoever
lacks
these traits
is nearsighted
to
the
point
of
blindness
, having forgotten
that
he
has
been
cleansed
from
his past
sins .
for
he
with
whom
these things
are
not
present
is blind
, dim-sighted,
having become
forgetful
of
the
cleansing
of
his old
sins ;
Therefore
, brothers
, strive
to make your calling and election
sure.
For if
you
practice
these things you
will
never stumble,
wherefore
, the
rather
, brethren,
be
diligent
to make stedfast
your calling and choice,
for these things doing,
ye
may
never stumble,
and
you will
receive
a
lavish
reception
into the eternal
kingdom
of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ.
for
so,
richly
shall
be
superadded
to
you the
entrance
into the age-during
reign
of our Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ.
Therefore
I will always remind you of
these things, even
though you
know
them and are
established in the truth you
now
have.
Wherefore,
I will not
be
careless
always to
remind you concerning
these things, though ,
having
known
them ,
and having
been
established in the present
truth ,
I think it
is
right to
refresh
your
memory
as
long as I live
in the
tent
of
my
body
,
and
I think right ,
so
long as I am
in this
tabernacle
, to
stir
you
up
in
reminding
`you',
because
I
know
that this
tent
will
soon be
laid
aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has
made
clear
to me .
having
known
that soon is
the
laying
aside of
my
tabernacle
, even
as also
our Lord Jesus Christ did
shew
to me ,
And I will make
every
effort
to
ensure
that after my departure
, you
will
be
able
to recall
these things at
all
times
.
and I will be
diligent
that also
at
every
time
ye
have,
after my outgoing
, power
to make
to
yourselves
the
remembrance
of
these things.
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 .
For ,
skilfully
devised fables not
having
followed
out,
we did
make
known to you the power and presence
of our Lord Jesus Christ, but eye-witnesses
having
become
of his majesty --
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 .”
for having
received from God the Father honour
and
glory,
such
a
voice being
borne
to him by
the excellent
glory :
`
This is My Son --
the
beloved
, in whom I was
well pleased ;'
And we
ourselves
heard
this voice from
heaven
when
we were
with Him on
the holy mountain
.
and this voice we --
we
did
hear,
out
of
heaven
borne,
being
with him in
the holy mount
.
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 .
And
we have more
firm
the prophetic
word ,
to
which
we
do well giving
heed
, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, till
day may
dawn,
and a
morning star may
arise
--
in your hearts ;
Above
all
, you
must
understand
that no prophecy of Scripture
comes
from
one’s
own
interpretation.
this
first
knowing
, that no prophecy of the
Writing
doth
come
of
private
exposition,
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.
for not
by will of man did
ever
prophecy
come
, but by the Holy Spirit borne
on
holy
men
of
God
spake
.
