RNKJV - II Peter - 1

1:1  Simon Kepha, a servant and an apostle of Yahushua the Messiah, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of יהוה and our Saviour Yahushua the Messiah:

1:2  Favour and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of יהוה, and of Yahushua our Master,

1:3  According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and reverence, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:

1:4  Whereby are given unto 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.

1:5  And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

1:6  And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience reverence;

1:7  And to reverence brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

1:8  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 Master Yahushua the Messiah.

1:9  But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

1:10  Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

1:11  For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Master and Saviour Yahushua the Messiah.

1:12  Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present truth.

1:13  Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;

1:14  Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Master Yahushua the Messiah hath shewed me.

1:15  Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.

1:16  For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Master Yahushua the Messiah, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

1:17  For he received from יהוה the Father honour 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.

1:18  And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.

1:19  We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

1:20  Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

1:21  For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of יהוה spake as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
