Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,

Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord;

seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue,

seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue;

by which he has granted to us his precious and exceedingly great promises; that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.

Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;

Yea, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply virtue; and in your virtue knowledge;

and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;

and in your knowledge self-control; and in your self-control patience; and in your patience godliness;

and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.

and in your godliness brotherly kindness; and in your brotherly kindness love.

For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to not be idle or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore I will not be negligent to remind you of these things, though you know them and are established in the present truth.

Wherefore I shall be ready always to put you in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and are established in the truth which is with you.

I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you,

And I think it right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;

knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.

knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle cometh swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ signified unto me.

Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.

Yea, I will give diligence that at every time ye may be able after my decease to call these things to remembrance.

We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.

and this voice we ourselves heard borne out of heaven, when we were with him in the holy mount.

We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts,

And we have the word of prophecy made more sure; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts:
