ButG1161 ofG1537 himG846 areG2075 yeG5210 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, whoG3739 ofG575 GodG2316 is madeG1096 unto usG2254+G5037 wisdomG4678, and righteousnessG1343, andG2532 sanctificationG38, andG2532 redemptionG629:
BecauseG1360 the carnalG4561 mindG5427 is enmityG2189 againstG1519 GodG2316: forG1063 it isG5293 notG3756 subjectG5293 to the lawG3551 of GodG2316, neitherG3761 indeedG1063 can beG1410. {the carnal…: Gr. the minding of the flesh}
ButG1161 the naturalG5591 manG444 receivethG1209 notG3756 the thingsG3588 of the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316: forG1063 they areG2076 foolishnessG3472 unto himG846: neitherG2532+G3756 canG1410 he knowG1097 them, becauseG3754 they are spirituallyG4153 discernedG350.
ForG1063 the fleshG4561 lustethG1937 againstG2596 the SpiritG4151, andG1161 the SpiritG4151 againstG2596 the fleshG4561: andG1161 theseG5023 are contraryG480 the one to the otherG240: so thatG2443 ye cannotG3363 doG4160 the thingsG5023 thatG3739+G302 ye wouldG2309.
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}
HeG1565 shall glorifyG1392 meG1691: forG3754 he shall receiveG2983 ofG1537 mineG1699, andG2532 shall shewG312 it unto youG5213.
ButG1161 to him that workethG2038 notG3361, butG1161 believethG4100 onG1909 him that justifiethG1344 the ungodlyG765, hisG846 faithG4102 is countedG3049 forG1519 righteousnessG1343.
FollowG1377 peaceG1515 withG3326 allG3956 men, andG2532 holinessG38, withoutG5565 whichG3739 no manG3762 shall seeG3700 the LordG2962:
ButG1161 ofG1537 himG846 areG2075 yeG5210 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, whoG3739 ofG575 GodG2316 is madeG1096 unto usG2254+G5037 wisdomG4678, and righteousnessG1343, andG2532 sanctificationG38, andG2532 redemptionG629:
That every oneG1538 of youG5216 should knowG1492 how to possessG2932 hisG1438 vesselG4632 inG1722 sanctificationG38 andG2532 honourG5092;
NotG3361 inG1722 the lustG3806 of concupiscenceG1939, evenG2532 asG2509 the GentilesG1484 whichG3588 knowG1492 notG3361 GodG2316:
That noG3361 man go beyondG5233 andG2532 defraudG4122 hisG846 brotherG80 inG1722 any matterG4229: becauseG1360 that the LordG2962 is the avengerG1558 ofG4012 allG3956 suchG5130, asG2531 weG4277 alsoG2532 have forewarnedG4277 youG5213 andG2532 testifiedG1263. {defraud: or, oppress, or, overreach} {in…: or, in the matter}
ForG1063 GodG2316 hathG2564 notG3756 calledG2564 usG2248 untoG1909 uncleannessG167, butG235 untoG1722 holinessG38.
ButG1161 weG2249 are boundG3784 to give thanksG2168 alwayG3842 to GodG2316 forG4012 youG5216, brethrenG80 belovedG25 ofG5259 the LordG2962, becauseG3754 GodG2316 hathG138 fromG575 the beginningG746 chosenG138 youG5209 toG1519 salvationG4991 throughG1722 sanctificationG38 of the SpiritG4151 andG2532 beliefG4102 of the truthG225:
SanctifyG37 themG846 throughG1722 thyG4675 truthG225: thyG4674 wordG3056 isG2076 truthG225.
ButG1161 weG2249 are boundG3784 to give thanksG2168 alwayG3842 to GodG2316 forG4012 youG5216, brethrenG80 belovedG25 ofG5259 the LordG2962, becauseG3754 GodG2316 hathG138 fromG575 the beginningG746 chosenG138 youG5209 toG1519 salvationG4991 throughG1722 sanctificationG38 of the SpiritG4151 andG2532 beliefG4102 of the truthG225:
AndG2532 suchG5023 wereG2258 some of youG5100: butG235 ye are washedG628, butG235 ye are sanctifiedG37, butG235 ye are justifiedG1344 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG2532 byG1722 the SpiritG4151 of ourG2257 GodG2316.
Unto the churchG1577 of GodG2316 whichG3588 isG5607 atG1722 CorinthG2882, to them that are sanctifiedG37 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, calledG2822 to be saintsG40, withG4862 allG3956 that inG1722 everyG3956 placeG5117 call uponG1941 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962, bothG5037 theirsG846 andG2532 oursG2257:
FollowG1377 peaceG1515 withG3326 allG3956 men, andG2532 holinessG38, withoutG5565 whichG3739 no manG3762 shall seeG3700 the LordG2962:
HavingG2192 thereforeG3767 theseG5025 promisesG1860, dearly belovedG27, let us cleanseG2511 ourselvesG1438 fromG575 allG3956 filthinessG3436 of the fleshG4561 andG2532 spiritG4151, perfectingG2005 holinessG42 inG1722 the fearG5401 of GodG2316.
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.
ForG1063 whomG3739 the LordG2962 lovethG25 he chastenethG3811, andG1161 scourgethG3146 everyG3956 sonG5207 whomG3739 he receivethG3858.
IfG1487 ye endureG5278 chasteningG3809, GodG2316 dealethG4374 with youG5213 asG5613 with sonsG5207; forG1063 whatG5101 sonG5207 is heG2076 whomG3739 the fatherG3962 chastenethG3811 notG3756?
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye beG2075 withoutG5565 chastisementG3809, whereofG3739 allG3956 areG1096 partakersG3353, thenG686 are yeG2075 bastardsG3541, andG2532 notG3756 sonsG5207.
FurthermoreG1534+G3303 we have hadG2192 fathersG3962 of ourG2257 fleshG4561 which correctedG3810 us, andG2532 we gave them reverenceG1788: shall weG5293 notG3756 muchG4183 ratherG3123 be in subjectionG5293 unto the FatherG3962 of spiritsG4151, andG2532 liveG2198?
ForG1063 they verilyG3303 forG4314 a fewG3641 daysG2250 chastenedG3811 us afterG2596 their ownG846 pleasureG1380; butG1161 he forG1909 our profitG4851, thatG1519 we might be partakersG3335 of hisG846 holinessG41. {after…: or, as seemed good, or, meet to them}
HavingG2192 thereforeG3767 theseG5025 promisesG1860, dearly belovedG27, let us cleanseG2511 ourselvesG1438 fromG575 allG3956 filthinessG3436 of the fleshG4561 andG2532 spiritG4151, perfectingG2005 holinessG42 inG1722 the fearG5401 of GodG2316.
