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}

KnowingG1097 thisG5124 firstG4412, thatG3754 there shall comeG2064 inG1909 the lastG2078 daysG2250 scoffersG1703, walkingG4198 afterG2596 theirG846 ownG2398 lustsG1939,
AndG2532 JesusG2424 cameG4334 and spakeG2980 unto themG846, sayingG3004, AllG3956 powerG1849 is givenG1325 unto meG3427 inG1722 heavenG3772 andG2532 inG1909 earthG1093.
But who may abideH3557 the dayH3117 of his comingH935? and who shall standH5975 when he appearethH7200? for he is like a refiner'sH6884 fireH784, and like fullers'H3526 soapH1287:
AndG2532 afterG3326 sixG1803 daysG2250 JesusG2424 takethG3880 PeterG4074+G2532, JamesG2385, andG2532 JohnG2491 hisG846 brotherG80, andG2532 bringethG399 themG846 upG399 intoG1519 an highG5308 mountainG3735 apartG2596+G2398,
AndG2532 was transfiguredG3339 beforeG1715 themG846: andG2532 hisG846 faceG4383 did shineG2989 asG5613 the sunG2246, andG1161 hisG846 raimentG2440 wasG1096 whiteG3022 asG5613 the lightG5457.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, there appearedG3700 unto themG846 MosesG3475 andG2532 EliasG2243 talkingG4814 withG3326 himG846.
ThenG1161 answeredG611 PeterG4074, and saidG2036 unto JesusG2424, LordG2962, it isG2076 goodG2570 for usG2248 to beG1511 hereG5602: ifG1487 thou wiltG2309, let us makeG4160 hereG5602 threeG5140 tabernaclesG4633; oneG3391 for theeG4671, andG2532 oneG3391 for MosesG3475, andG2532 oneG3391 for EliasG2243.
While heG846 yetG2089 spakeG2980, beholdG2400, a brightG5460 cloudG3507 overshadowedG1982 themG846: andG2532 beholdG2400 a voiceG5456 out ofG1537 the cloudG3507, which saidG3004, ThisG3778 isG2076 myG3450 belovedG27 SonG5207, inG1722 whomG3739 I am well pleasedG2106; hear yeG191 himG846.
AndG2532 sayingG3004, WhereG4226 isG2076 the promiseG1860 of hisG846 comingG3952? forG1063 sinceG575+G3739 the fathersG3962 fell asleepG2837, all thingsG3956 continueG3779+G1265 as they were fromG575 the beginningG746 of the creationG2937.
AndG2532 he saidG3004 unto themG846, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 there beG1526 someG5100 of them that standG2476 hereG5602, whichG3748 shallG1089 notG3364 tasteG1089 of deathG2288, tillG2193+G302 they have seenG1492 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 comeG2064 withG1722 powerG1411.
Behold, I will sendH7971 you ElijahH452 the prophetH5030 beforeH6440 the comingH935 of the greatH1419 and dreadfulH3372 dayH3117 of the LORDH3068:
AndG2532 afterG3326 sixG1803 daysG2250 JesusG2424 takethG3880 with him PeterG4074, andG2532 JamesG2385, andG2532 JohnG2491, andG2532 leadethG399 themG846 upG399 intoG1519 an highG5308 mountainG3735 apartG2596+G2398 by themselvesG3441: andG2532 he was transfiguredG3339 beforeG1715 themG846.
ForG1063 ChristG5547 sentG649 meG3165 notG3756 to baptizeG907, butG235 to preach the gospelG2097: notG3756 withG1722 wisdomG4678 of wordsG3056, lestG3363 the crossG4716 of ChristG5547 should be made of none effectG2758. {words: or, speech}
AsG2531 thou hast givenG1325 himG846 powerG1849 over allG3956 fleshG4561, thatG2443 he should giveG1325 eternalG166 lifeG2222 toG3739 as many asG3956+G846 thou hast givenG1325 himG846.
VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, There beG1526 someG5100 standingG2476 hereG5602, whichG3748 shallG1089 notG3364 tasteG1089 of deathG2288, tillG302+G2193 they seeG1492 the SonG5207 of manG444 comingG2064 inG1722 hisG846 kingdomG932.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096 aboutG5616 an eightG3638 daysG2250 afterG3326 theseG5128 sayingsG3056+G2532, he tookG3880 PeterG4074 andG2532 JohnG2491 andG2532 JamesG2385, and went upG305 intoG1519 a mountainG3735 to prayG4336. {sayings: or, things}
AndG2532 asG1722 heG846 prayedG4336, the fashionG1491 of hisG846 countenanceG4383 wasG1096 alteredG2087, andG2532 hisG846 raimentG2441 was whiteG3022 and glisteringG1823.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, there talkedG4814 with himG846 twoG1417 menG435, whichG3748 wereG2258 MosesG3475 andG2532 EliasG2243:
WhoG3739 appearedG3700 inG1722 gloryG1391, and spakeG3004 of hisG846 deceaseG1841 whichG3739 he shouldG3195 accomplishG4137 atG1722 JerusalemG2419.
ButG1161 PeterG4074 andG2532 they that were withG4862 himG846 wereG2258 heavyG916 with sleepG5258: andG1161 when they were awakeG1235, they sawG1492 hisG846 gloryG1391, andG2532 the twoG1417 menG435 that stood withG4921 himG846.
ButG1161 weG2249 preachG2784 ChristG5547 crucifiedG4717, unto the JewsG2453 a stumblingblockG3303+G4625, andG1161 unto the GreeksG1672 foolishnessG3472;
And declaredG3724 to be the SonG5207 of GodG2316 withG1722 powerG1411, accordingG2596 to the spiritG4151 of holinessG42, byG1537 the resurrectionG386 from the deadG3498: {declared: Gr. determined}
AndG1161 as heG846 satG2521 uponG1909 the mountG3735 of OlivesG1636, the disciplesG3101 cameG4334 unto himG846 privatelyG2596+G2398, sayingG3004, TellG2036 usG2254, whenG4219 shallG2071 these thingsG5023 beG2071? andG2532 whatG5101 shall be the signG4592 of thyG4674 comingG3952, andG2532 of the endG4930 of the worldG165?
AndG2532 the WordG3056 was madeG1096 fleshG4561, andG2532 dweltG4637 amongG1722 usG2254, (andG2532 we beheldG2300 hisG846 gloryG1391, the gloryG1391 asG5613 of the only begottenG3439 ofG3844 the FatherG3962,) fullG4134 of graceG5485 andG2532 truthG225.
And IG2504, brethrenG80, when I cameG2064 toG4314 youG5209, cameG2064 notG3756 withG2596 excellencyG5247 of speechG3056 orG2228 of wisdomG4678, declaringG2605 unto youG5213 the testimonyG3142 of GodG2316.
InG1722 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, when yeG5216 are gathered togetherG4863, andG2532 myG1699 spiritG4151, withG4862 the powerG1411 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
ForG1063 asG5618 the lightningG796 comethG1831 out ofG575 the eastG395, andG2532 shinethG5316 even untoG2193 the westG1424; soG3779 shallG2071 alsoG2532 the comingG3952 of the SonG5207 of manG444 beG2071.
That whichG3739 wasG2258 fromG575 the beginningG746, whichG3739 we have heardG191, whichG3739 we have seenG3708 with ourG2257 eyesG3788, whichG3739 we have looked uponG2300, andG2532 ourG2257 handsG5495 have handledG5584, ofG4012 the WordG3056 of lifeG2222;
(ForG2532 the lifeG2222 was manifestedG5319, andG2532 we have seenG3708 it, andG2532 bear witnessG3140, andG2532 shewG518 unto youG5213 that eternalG166 lifeG2222, whichG3748 wasG2258 withG4314 the FatherG3962, andG2532 was manifestedG5319 unto usG2254;)
That whichG3739 we have seenG3708 andG2532 heardG191 declare weG518 unto youG5213, thatG2443 yeG5210 alsoG2532 may haveG2192 fellowshipG2842 withG3326 usG2257: andG2532 truly ourG2251 fellowshipG2842+G1161 is withG3326 the FatherG3962, andG2532 withG3326 hisG846 SonG5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
AndG2532 myG3450 speechG3056 andG2532 myG3450 preachingG2782 was notG3756 withG1722 enticingG3981 wordsG3056 of man'sG442 wisdomG4678, butG235 inG1722 demonstrationG585 of the SpiritG4151 andG2532 of powerG1411: {enticing: or, persuasible}
WhoG3739 shall changeG3345 ourG2257 vileG5014 bodyG4983, thatG1519 itG846 may beG1096 fashioned like untoG4832 hisG846 gloriousG1391 bodyG4983, according toG2596 the workingG1753 whereby heG846 is ableG1410 evenG2532 to subdueG5293 all thingsG3956 unto himselfG1438.
So thatG5620 yeG5209 come behindG5302 inG1722 noG3361+G3367 giftG5486; waiting forG553 the comingG602 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {coming: Gr. revelation}
AndG2532 weG2249 have seenG2300 andG2532 do testifyG3140 thatG3754 the FatherG3962 sentG649 the SonG5207 to be the SaviourG4990 of the worldG2889.
ForG1063 we areG2070 notG3756 asG5613 manyG4183, which corruptG2585 the wordG3056 of GodG2316: butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 sincerityG1505, butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 GodG2316, in the sightG2714 of GodG2316 speak weG2980 inG1722 ChristG5547. {corrupt: or, deal deceitfully with} {in Christ: or, of Christ}
AndG1161 EnochG1802 alsoG2532, the seventhG1442 fromG575 AdamG76, prophesiedG4395 of theseG5125, sayingG3004, BeholdG2400, the LordG2962 comethG2064 withG1722 ten thousandsG3461 of hisG846 saintsG40,
ButG235 have renouncedG550 the hidden thingsG2927 of dishonestyG152, notG3361 walkingG4043 inG1722 craftinessG3834, norG3366 handlingG1389 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 deceitfullyG1389; butG235 by manifestationG5321 of the truthG225 commendingG4921 ourselvesG1438 toG4314 everyG3956 man'sG444 conscienceG4893 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316. {dishonesty: Gr. shame}
BeholdG2400, he comethG2064 withG3326 cloudsG3507; andG2532 everyG3956 eyeG3788 shall seeG3700 himG846, andG2532 they also whichG3748 piercedG1574 himG846: andG2532 allG3956 kindredsG5443 of the earthG1093 shall wailG2875 becauseG1909 of himG846. Even soG3483, AmenG281.
ButG1161 be it soG2077, IG1473 didG2599 notG3756 burdenG2599 youG5209: neverthelessG235, beingG5225 craftyG3835, I caughtG2983 youG5209 with guileG1388.
Did I make a gainG4122+G3361 of youG5209 byG1223 anyG5100 of themG846 whomG3739 I sentG649 untoG4314 youG5209?
ThatG2443 we henceforth beG5600 no moreG3371 childrenG3516, tossed to and froG2831, andG2532 carried about withG4064 everyG3956 windG417 of doctrineG1319, byG1722 the sleightG2940 of menG444, and cunning craftinessG1722+G3834, wherebyG4314 they lie in waitG3180 to deceiveG4106;
Even him, whoseG3739 comingG3952 isG2076 afterG2596 the workingG1753 of SatanG4567 withG1722 allG3956 powerG1411 andG2532 signsG4592 andG2532 lyingG5579 wondersG5059,
NeitherG3366 give heedG4337 to fablesG3454 andG2532 endlessG562 genealogiesG1076, whichG3748 ministerG3930 questionsG2214, ratherG3123 thanG2228 godlyG2316 edifyingG3620 whichG3588 is inG1722 faithG4102: so do.
