Revised Young's Literal Translation
New Testament
| 1:1 | Simeon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who did obtain a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ: |
| 1:2 | Grace to you, and peace be multiplied in the acknowledgement of God and of Jesus our Lord! |
| 1:3 | As all things to us His divine power (the things pertaining unto life and piety) has given, through the acknowledgement of him who did call us through glory and worthiness, |
| 1:4 | through which to us the most great and precious promises have been given, that through these you may become partakers of a divine nature, having escaped from the corruption in the world in desires. |
| 1:5 | And this same also -- all diligence having brought in besides, superadd in your faith the worthiness, and in the worthiness the knowledge, |
| 1:6 | and in the knowledge the temperance, and in the temperance the endurance, and in the endurance the piety, |
| 1:7 | and in the piety the brotherly kindness, and in the brotherly kindness the love; |
| 1:8 | for these things being to you and abounding, do make you neither inert nor unfruitful in regard to the acknowledging of our Lord Jesus Christ, |
| 1:9 | for he with whom these things are not present is blind, dim-sighted, having become forgetful of the cleansing of his old sins; |
| 1:10 | therefore, the rather, brethren, be diligent to make stedfast your calling and choice, for these things doing, you may never stumble, |
| 1:11 | for so, richly shall be superadded to you the entrance into the age-during reign of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. |
| 1:12 | Therefore, I will not be careless always to remind you concerning these things, though, having known them, and having been established in the present truth, |
| 1:13 | and I think right, so long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up in reminding you, |
| 1:14 | having known that soon is the laying aside of my tabernacle, even as also our Lord Jesus Christ did show to me, |
| 1:15 | and I will be diligent that also at every time you have, after my outgoing, power to make to yourselves the remembrance of these things. |
| 1:16 | For, skilfully devised fables not having followed out, we did make known to you the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but eye-witnesses having become of his majesty -- |
| 1:17 | for having received from God the Father honour and glory, such a voice being borne to him by the excellent glory: 'This is My Son -- the beloved, in whom I was well pleased;' |
| 1:18 | and this voice we -- we did hear, out of heaven borne, being with him in the holy mount. |
| 1:19 | And we have more firm the prophetic word, to which we do well giving heed, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, till day may dawn, and a morning star may arise -- in your hearts; |
| 1:20 | this first knowing, that no prophecy of the Writing does come of private exposition, |
| 1:21 | for not by will of man did ever prophecy come, but by the Holy Spirit borne on holy men of God spake. |
