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; |
1:7 | And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. |
1:8 | 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. |
1:9 | But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. |
1:9 | 人若沒有這幾樣、就是眼瞎、只看見近處的、忘了他舊日的罪已經得了潔淨。 |
1:9 | 人若没有这几样,就是眼瞎,只看见近处的,忘了他旧日的罪已经得了洁净。 |
deu:28:28 | The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart: |
deu:28:29 | And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee. |
isa:59:10 | We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noon day as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men. |
zep:1:17 | And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung. |
1jn:2:11 | But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes. |
tit:2:14 | Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. |
heb:9:13 | For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: |
heb:9:14 | How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? |

1:10 | Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: |
1:11 | For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. |
1:12 | 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. |
1:13 | Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance; |
1:14 | Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me. |
1:15 | Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance. |
1:16 | 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. |
1:17 | 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. |
1:18 | And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount. |
1:19 | 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: |
1:20 | Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. |
1:21 | 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. |
