SimonG4826 PeterG4074, a servantG1401 andG2532 an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to them that have obtainedG2975 like preciousG2472 faithG4102 with usG2254 throughG1722 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 andG2532 ourG2257 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {Simon: or, Symeon} {God…: Gr. of our God and Saviour}
GraceG5485 andG2532 peaceG1515 be multipliedG4129 unto youG5213 throughG1722 the knowledgeG1922 of GodG2316, andG2532 of JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962,
According asG5613 hisG846 divineG2304 powerG1411 hath givenG1433 unto usG2254 all thingsG3956 that pertain untoG4314 lifeG2222 andG2532 godlinessG2150, throughG1223 the knowledgeG1922 of him that hath calledG2564 usG2248 toG1223 gloryG1391 andG2532 virtueG703: {to: or, by}
WherebyG1223+G3739 are givenG1433 unto usG2254 exceeding greatG3176 andG2532 preciousG5093 promisesG1862: thatG2443 byG1223 theseG5130 ye might beG1096 partakersG2844 of the divineG2304 natureG5449, having escapedG668 the corruptionG5356 that is inG1722 the worldG2889 throughG1722 lustG1939.
AndG2532+G1161 besideG846 thisG5124, givingG3923 allG3956 diligenceG4710, addG2023 toG1722 yourG5216 faithG4102 virtueG703; andG1161 toG1722 virtueG703 knowledgeG1108;
AndG1161 toG1722 knowledgeG1108 temperanceG1466; andG1161 toG1722 temperanceG1466 patienceG5281; andG1161 toG1722 patienceG5281 godlinessG2150;
AndG1161 toG1722 godlinessG2150 brotherly kindnessG5360; andG1161 toG1722 brotherly kindnessG5360 charityG26.
ForG1063 if these thingsG5023 beG5225 in youG5213, andG2532 aboundG4121, they makeG2525 you that ye shall neitherG3756 be barrenG692 norG3761 unfruitfulG175 inG1519 the knowledgeG1922 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. {barren: Gr. idle}
ButG1063 he thatG3739 lackethG3361+G3918 these thingsG5023 isG2076 blindG5185, and cannot see afar offG3467, and hath forgottenG3024+G2983 that he was purged fromG2512 hisG846 oldG3819 sinsG266.
WhereforeG1352 the ratherG3123, brethrenG80, give diligenceG4704 to makeG4160 yourG5216 callingG2821 andG2532 electionG1589 sureG949: forG1063 if ye doG4160 these thingsG5023, ye shallG4218+G4417 neverG3364 fallG4218+G4417:
ForG1063 soG3779 an entranceG1529 shall be ministeredG2023 unto youG5213 abundantlyG4146 intoG1519 the everlastingG166 kingdomG932 of ourG2257 LordG2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1352 I willG272 notG3756 be negligentG272 to putG5279 youG5209 alwaysG104 in remembranceG5279 ofG4012 these thingsG5130, thoughG2539 ye knowG1492 them, andG2532 be establishedG4741 inG1722 the presentG3918 truthG225.
YeaG1161, I think itG2233 meetG1342, as long asG1909+G3745 I amG1510 inG1722 thisG5129 tabernacleG4638, to stirG1326 youG5209 upG1326 byG1722 putting you in remembranceG5280;
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 shortlyG5031 I mustG2076 put offG595 this myG3450 tabernacleG4638, evenG2532 asG2531 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 hath shewedG1213 meG3427.
MoreoverG1161+G2532 I will endeavourG4704 that yeG5209 may be ableG2192 afterG3326 myG1699 deceaseG1841 to haveG4160 these thingsG5130 alwaysG1539 in remembranceG3420.
ForG1063 we haveG1811 notG3756 followedG1811 cunningly devisedG4679 fablesG3454, when we made knownG1107 unto youG5213 the powerG1411 andG2532 comingG3952 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, butG235 wereG1096 eyewitnessesG2030 of hisG1565 majestyG3168.
ForG1063 he receivedG2983 fromG3844 GodG2316 the FatherG3962 honourG5092 andG2532 gloryG1391, when there cameG5342 suchG5107 a voiceG5456 to himG846 fromG5259 the excellentG3169 gloryG1391, ThisG3778 isG2076 myG3450 belovedG27 SonG5207, inG1519 whomG3739 IG1473 am well pleasedG2106.
AndG2532 thisG5026 voiceG5456 which cameG5342 fromG1537 heavenG3772 weG2249 heardG191, when we wereG5607 withG4862 himG846 inG1722 the holyG40 mountG3735.
We haveG2192 alsoG2532 a more sureG949 wordG3056 of prophecyG4397; whereuntoG3739 ye doG4160 wellG2573 that ye take heedG4337, asG5613 unto a lightG3088 that shinethG5316 inG1722 a darkG850 placeG5117, untilG2193+G3739 the dayG2250 dawnG1306, andG2532 the day starG5459 ariseG393 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588:
KnowingG1097 thisG5124 firstG4412, thatG3754 noG3756+G3956 prophecyG4394 of the scriptureG1124 isG1096 of any privateG2398 interpretationG1955.
ForG1063 the prophecyG4394 cameG5342 notG3756 in old timeG4218 by the willG2307 of manG444: butG235 holyG40 menG444 of GodG2316 spakeG2980 as they were movedG5342 byG5259 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. {in old time: or, at any time}

A newG2537 commandmentG1785 I giveG1325 unto youG5213, ThatG2443 ye loveG25 one anotherG240; asG2531 I have lovedG25 youG5209, thatG2443 yeG5210 alsoG2532 loveG25 one anotherG240.
ThoughG1437 I speakG2980 with the tonguesG1100 of menG444 andG2532 of angelsG32, andG1161 haveG2192 notG3361 charityG26, I am becomeG1096 as soundingG2278 brassG5475, orG2228 a tinklingG214 cymbalG2950.
AndG2532 thoughG1437 I haveG2192 the gift of prophecyG4394, andG2532 understandG1492 allG3956 mysteriesG3466, andG2532 allG3956 knowledgeG1108; andG2532 thoughG1437 I haveG2192 allG3956 faithG4102, soG5620 that I could removeG3179 mountainsG3735, andG1161 haveG2192 notG3361 charityG26, I amG1510 nothingG3762.
AndG2532 thoughG1437 I bestowG5595 allG3956 myG3450 goodsG5224 to feedG5595 the poor, andG2532 thoughG1437 I giveG3860 myG3450 bodyG4983 toG2443 be burnedG2545, andG1161 haveG2192 notG3361 charityG26, it profiteth meG5623 nothingG3762.
CharityG26 suffereth longG3114, and is kindG5541; charityG26 enviethG2206 notG3756; charityG26 vauntethG4068 notG3756 itselfG4068, isG5448 notG3756 puffed upG5448, {vaunteth…: or, is not rash}
DothG807 notG3756 behave itself unseemlyG807, seekethG2212 notG3756 her ownG1438, isG3947 notG3756 easily provokedG3947, thinkethG3049 noG3756 evilG2556;
RejoicethG5463 notG3756 inG1909 iniquityG93, butG1161 rejoicethG4796 in the truthG225; {in the truth: or, with the truth}
BearethG4722 all thingsG3956, believethG4100 all thingsG3956, hopethG1679 all thingsG3956, endurethG5278 all thingsG3956.
CharityG26 neverG3763 failethG1601: butG1161 whetherG1535 there be propheciesG4394, they shall failG2673; whetherG1535 there be tonguesG1100, they shall ceaseG3973; whetherG1535 there be knowledgeG1108, it shall vanish awayG2673. {fail: Gr. vanish away}
ByG1722 thisG5129 shallG1097 allG3956 men knowG1097 thatG3754 ye areG2075 myG1699 disciplesG3101, ifG1437 ye haveG2192 loveG26 one to anotherG1722+G240.
AsG5613 we haveG2192 thereforeG686+G3767 opportunityG2540, let us doG2038 goodG18 untoG4314 allG3956 men, especiallyG1161+G3122 untoG4314 them who are of the householdG3609 of faithG4102.
Be kindly affectionedG5387 one to anotherG1519+G240 with brotherly loveG5360; in honourG5092 preferringG4285 one anotherG240; {with…: or, in the love of the brethren}
AndG1161 aboveG1909 allG3956 these thingsG5125 put on charityG26, whichG3748 isG2076 the bondG4886 of perfectnessG5047.
AndG1161 the LordG2962 makeG4121 youG5209 to increaseG4121 andG2532 aboundG4052 in loveG26 oneG240 towardG1519 anotherG240, andG2532 towardG1519 allG3956 men, evenG2532 asG2509 weG2249 do towardG1519 youG5209:
SeeG3708 that noneG3361+G5100 renderG591 evilG2556 forG473 evilG2556 unto anyG5100 man; butG235 everG3842 followG1377 that whichG3588 is goodG18, bothG2532 amongG1519 yourselvesG240, andG2532 toG1519 allG3956 men.
ButG1161 as touchingG4012 brotherly loveG5360 ye needG2192+G5532 notG3756 that I writeG1125 unto youG5213: forG1063 yeG5210 yourselvesG846 areG2075 taught of GodG2312 toG1519 loveG25 one anotherG240.
FinallyG1161+G5056, be ye allG3956 of one mindG3675, having compassion one of anotherG4835, love as brethrenG5361, be pitifulG2155, be courteousG5391: {love as: or, loving to the}
AndG2532 indeedG1063 ye doG4160 itG846 towardG1519 allG3956 the brethrenG80 whichG3588 are inG1722 allG3650 MacedoniaG3109: butG1161 we beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, that ye increaseG4052 more and moreG3123;
AndG2532 thisG5026 commandmentG1785 have weG2192 fromG575 himG846, ThatG2443 he who lovethG25 GodG2316 loveG25 hisG846 brotherG80 alsoG2532.
Seeing ye have purifiedG48 yourG5216 soulsG5590 inG1722 obeyingG5218 the truthG225 throughG1223 the SpiritG4151 untoG1519 unfeignedG505 love of the brethrenG5360, see that ye loveG25 one anotherG240 withG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588 ferventlyG1619:
HonourG5091 allG3956 men. LoveG25 the brotherhoodG81. FearG5399 GodG2316. HonourG5091 the kingG935. {Honour all: or, Esteem all}
