ܫܡܥܘܢ ܦܛܪܘܤ ܥܒܕܐ ܘܫܠܝܚܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܫܘܝܬ ܒܐܝܩܪܐ ܥܡܢ ܐܫܬܘܝܘ ܒܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܕܡܪܢ ܘܦܪܘܩܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ | 1 |
Symeon Peter, a servant and Apostle of Jesus Christ, to them who have obtained like precious faith with us, through the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ:
ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܘܫܠܡܐ ܢܤܓܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܫܘܘܕܥܐ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ | 2 |
Favor and peace be multiplied to you, through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord.
ܐܝܟ ܡܢ ܕܟܠܗܝܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܝܢ ܕܚܝܠܐ ܐܠܗܝܐ ܠܘܬ ܚܝܐ ܘܕܚܠܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܝܗܒ ܒܝܕ ܫܘܘܕܥܐ ܕܗܘ ܕܩܪܐ ܠܢ ܒܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܘܡܝܬܪܘܬܐ | 3 |
As his divine power has gifted to us all things which are necessary to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who has called us to glory and virtue.
ܕܒܐܝܕܝܗܝܢ ܫܘܘܕܝܐ ܪܘܪܒܐ ܘܝܩܝܪܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܝܗܒ ܕܒܝܕ ܗܠܝܢ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܫܘܬܦܐ ܕܟܝܢܐ ܐܠܗܝܐ ܟܕ ܥܪܩܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܚܒܠܐ ܕܪܓܝܓܬܐ ܕܒܥܠܡܐ | 4 |
On account of which, the greatest and most precious promises are freely given to us, that by these we might be made partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world, through lust.
ܘܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܗܕܐ ܟܕ ܫܩܠܛܥܢܐ ܟܠܗ ܡܥܠܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܘܤܦܘ ܥܠ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܡܝܬܪܘܬܐ ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܡܝܬܪܘܬܐ ܝܕܥܬܐ | 5 |
And for this very reason, indeed, giving all diligence, add to your faith, courage; and to courage, knowledge;
ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܝܕܥܬܐ ܡܚܡܤܢܢܘܬܐ ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܡܚܡܤܢܢܘܬܐ ܡܤܝܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܡܤܝܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܕܚܠܬ ܐܠܗܐ | 6 |
and to knowledge, temperance; and to temperance, patience; and to patience, godliness;
ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܕܚܠܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܪܚܡܬ ܐܚܘܬܐ ܥܠ ܕܝܢ ܪܚܡܬ ܐܚܘܬܐ ܚܘܒܐ | 7 |
and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love:
ܗܠܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܟܕ ܫܟܝܚܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܝܬܝܪܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܒܛܝܠܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܕܠܐ ܦܐܪܐ ܡܩܝܡܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܫܘܘܕܥܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ | 8 |
for these things being in you, and abounding, make you to be neither slothful, nor unfruitful, in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܠܐ ܫܟܝܚܢ ܠܗ ܗܠܝܢ ܤܡܝܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܕܠܐ ܚܙܐ ܕܛܥܐ ܕܘܟܝܐ ܕܚܛܗܘܗܝ ܩܕܡܝܐ | 9 |
But he who has not these things, is blind, shutting his eyes, having become forgetful of the purification of his old sins.
ܘܥܠ ܗܝ ܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܐܚܝ ܝܨܦܘ ܕܒܝܕ ܥܒܕܝܟܘܢ ܛܒܐ ܩܪܝܬܟܘܢ ܘܓܒܝܬܟܘܢ ܡܫܪܪܬܐ ܬܥܒܕܘܢ ܟܕ ܓܝܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܬܘܡ ܡܫܬܪܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ | 10 |
Wherefore, the rather, brethren, earnestly endeavor to make your calling and election sure; for doing these things, you shall never fall;
ܗܟܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܥܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܡܬܝܗܒܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܥܠܬܐ ܕܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܕܡܪܢ ܘܦܪܘܩܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ (aiōnios ) | 11 |
and thus there shall be richly ministered to you, an entrance into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios )
ܘܥܠ ܗܕܐ ܠܐ ܡܡܐܢ ܐܢܐ ܡܢ ܕܡܥܗܕ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܡܝܢܐܝܬ ܥܠ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܕ ܛܒ ܐܦ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܤܡܝܟܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܠ ܫܪܪܐ ܗܢܐ | 12 |
Wherefore, I will not neglect to put you always in remembrance of these things, although you know, and are established in the present truth.
ܕܟܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܤܬܒܪܬ ܠܝ ܕܟܡܐ ܕܐܝܬܝ ܒܦܓܪܐ ܗܢܐ ܐܥܝܪܟܘܢ ܒܥܘܗܕܢܐ | 13 |
Yes, I think it fit, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up, by putting you in remembrance;
ܟܕ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܕܥܘܢܕܢܐ ܕܦܓܪܝ ܒܥܓܠ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܘܕܥܢܝ | 14 |
knowing, that the putting off of this, my tabernacle, is soon to happen, even as our Lord Jesus Christ has showed me.
ܝܨܦ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܐܦ ܐܡܝܢܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܦ ܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܡܦܩܢܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܥܘܗܕܢܐ ܕܗܠܝܢ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܥܒܕܝܢ | 15 |
Therefore, I will carefully endeavor that you may be able, after my decease, to have these things always in remembrance.
ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܓܝܪ ܟܕ ܒܬܪ ܡܬܠܐ ܕܥܒܝܕܝܢ ܒܐܘܡܢܘܬܐ ܐܙܠܝܢܢ ܐܘܕܥܢܟܘܢ ܚܝܠܗ ܘܡܐܬܝܬܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܠܐ ܟܕ ܚܙܝܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܕܪܒܘܬܐ ܕܝܠܗ | 16 |
For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye-witnesses of his grandeur;
ܟܕ ܓܝܪ ܢܤܒ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܐ ܐܝܩܪܐ ܘܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܟܕ ܩܠܐ ܐܬܐ ܠܗ ܕܐܝܟ ܗܢܐ ܡܢ ܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܦܐܝܬ ܒܪܒܘܬܗ ܕܗܢܘ ܒܪܝ ܗܘ ܚܒܝܒܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܗ ܐܨܛܒܝܬ | 17 |
for when he received from God the Father honor and glory, a vice to this effect came to him from the magnificent glory, "This is my Son, the beloved, in whom I delight."
ܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܠܗ ܠܗܢܐ ܩܠܐ ܫܡܥܢܢ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܠܗ ܟܕ ܐܝܬܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܥܡܗ ܒܛܘܪܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ | 18 |
And this voice we heard come from heaven, being with him on the holy mountain:
ܘܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܕܫܪܝܪܐ ܐܦ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܢܒܝܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܫܦܝܪ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܟܕ ܒܗ ܚܝܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܒܫܪܓܐ ܕܡܢܗܪ ܒܐܬܪܐ ܥܡܘܛܐ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܐܝܡܡܐ ܢܢܗܪ ܘܫܡܫܐ ܢܕܢܚ ܒܠܒܘܬܟܘܢ | 19 |
so we have the prophetic word more firm; to which you do well to take heed, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, till the day dawn, and the morning star arise in your hearts.
ܟܕ ܗܕܐ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܟܠ ܢܒܝܘܬܐ ܫܪܝܐ ܕܟܬܒܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܐ | 20 |
Knowing this first, that no prophecy brought by the will of man;
ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܓܝܪ ܒܨܒܝܢܐ ܕܒܪܢܫܐ ܐܬܬ ܡܢ ܡܬܘܡ ܢܒܝܘܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܟܕ ܡܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܡܬܢܓܕܝܢ ܡܠܠܘ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ | 21 |
but the holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
