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:
συμεων πετροσ δουλοσ και αποστολοσ ιησου χριστου τοισ ισοτιμον ημιν λαχουσιν πιστιν εν δικαιοσυνη του θεου ημων και σωτηροσ ιησου χριστου
2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
χαρισ υμιν και ειρηνη πληθυνθειη εν επιγνωσει του θεου και ιησου του κυριου ημων
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:
ωσ παντα ημιν τησ θειασ δυναμεωσ αυτου τα προσ ζωην και ευσεβειαν δεδωρημενησ δια τησ επιγνωσεωσ του καλεσαντοσ ημασ δια δοξησ και αρετησ
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.
δι ων τα τιμια ημιν και μεγιστα επαγγελματα δεδωρηται ινα δια τουτων γενησθε θειασ κοινωνοι φυσεωσ αποφυγοντεσ τησ εν κοσμω εν επιθυμια φθορασ
5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
και αυτο τουτο δε σπουδην πασαν παρεισενεγκαντεσ επιχορηγησατε εν τη πιστει υμων την αρετην εν δε τη αρετη την γνωσιν
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
εν δε τη γνωσει την εγκρατειαν εν δε τη εγκρατεια την υπομονην εν δε τη υπομονη την ευσεβειαν
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
εν δε τη ευσεβεια την φιλαδελφιαν εν δε τη φιλαδελφια την αγαπην
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make [you that ye shall] neither [be] barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
ταυτα γαρ υμιν υπαρχοντα και πλεοναζοντα ουκ αργουσ ουδε ακαρπουσ καθιστησιν εισ την του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου επιγνωσιν
9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
ω γαρ μη παρεστιν ταυτα τυφλοσ εστιν μυωπαζων ληθην λαβων του καθαρισμου των παλαι αυτου αμαρτιων
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
διο μαλλον αδελφοι σπουδασατε βεβαιαν υμων την κλησιν και εκλογην ποιεισθαι ταυτα γαρ ποιουντεσ ου μη πταισητε ποτε
11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
ουτωσ γαρ πλουσιωσ επιχορηγηθησεται υμιν η εισοδοσ εισ την αιωνιον βασιλειαν του κυριου ημων και σωτηροσ ιησου χριστου (aiōnios g166)
12 Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know [them], and be established in the present truth.
διο ουκ αμελησω αει υμασ υπομιμνησκειν περι τουτων καιπερ ειδοτασ και εστηριγμενουσ εν τη παρουση αληθεια
13 Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting [you] in remembrance;
δικαιον δε ηγουμαι εφ οσον ειμι εν τουτω τω σκηνωματι διεγειρειν υμασ εν υπομνησει
14 Knowing that shortly I must put off [this] my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.
ειδωσ οτι ταχινη εστιν η αποθεσισ του σκηνωματοσ μου καθωσ και ο κυριοσ ημων ιησουσ χριστοσ εδηλωσεν μοι
15 Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.
σπουδασω δε και εκαστοτε εχειν υμασ μετα την εμην εξοδον την τουτων μνημην ποιεισθαι
16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
ου γαρ σεσοφισμενοισ μυθοισ εξακολουθησαντεσ εγνωρισαμεν υμιν την του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου δυναμιν και παρουσιαν αλλ εποπται γενηθεντεσ τησ εκεινου μεγαλειοτητοσ
17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
λαβων γαρ παρα θεου πατροσ τιμην και δοξαν φωνησ ενεχθεισησ αυτω τοιασδε υπο τησ μεγαλοπρεπουσ δοξησ ουτοσ εστιν ο υιοσ μου ο αγαπητοσ εισ ον εγω ευδοκησα
18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
και ταυτην την φωνην ημεισ ηκουσαμεν εξ ουρανου ενεχθεισαν συν αυτω οντεσ εν τω ορει τω αγιω
19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
και εχομεν βεβαιοτερον τον προφητικον λογον ω καλωσ ποιειτε προσεχοντεσ ωσ λυχνω φαινοντι εν αυχμηρω τοπω εωσ ου ημερα διαυγαση και φωσφοροσ ανατειλη εν ταισ καρδιαισ υμων
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
τουτο πρωτον γινωσκοντεσ οτι πασα προφητεια γραφησ ιδιασ επιλυσεωσ ου γινεται
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake [as they were] moved by the Holy Ghost.
ου γαρ θεληματι ανθρωπου ηνεχθη ποτε προφητεια αλλ υπο πνευματοσ αγιου φερομενοι ελαλησαν αγιοι θεου ανθρωποι
