2 Peter 1

[2 Peter 1:1] Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:

[1:2] Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,

[1:3] According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, 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 godliness;
