# 2 Peter 1 (New King James Version)
Greeting the Faithful
##### Chapter 1
###### 1 Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ,
To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:
###### 2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
###### 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that _pertain_ to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,
###### 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption _that is_ in the world through lust.Fruitful Growth in the Faith
###### 5 But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge,
###### 6 to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness,
###### 7 to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love.
###### 8 For if these things are yours and abound, _you_ will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
###### 9 For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins.
###### 10 Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble;
###### 11 for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.Peter's Approaching Death
###### 12 For this reason I will not be negligent to remind you always of these things, though you know and are established in the present truth.
###### 13 Yes, I think it is right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding _you_,
###### 14 knowing that shortly I _must_ put off my tent, just as our Lord Jesus Christ showed me.
###### 15 Moreover I will be careful to ensure that you always have a reminder of these things after my decease.The Trustworthy Prophetic Word
###### 16 For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty.
###### 17 For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
###### 18 And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain.
###### 19 And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;
###### 20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation,
###### 21 for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke _as they were_ moved by the Holy Spirit.
