1Simon Peter, servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained equal faith with us in the justice of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ.
1作耶穌基督僕人和使徒的 西門‧彼得 寫信給那因我們的上帝和救主耶穌基督之義、與我們同得一樣寶貴信心的人。
2Grace to you and peace be accomplished in the knowledge of God and of Christ Jesus our Lord:
2願恩惠、平安,因你們認識上帝和我們主耶穌,多多地加給你們。
3As all things of his divine power which appertain to life and godliness, are given us, through the knowledge of him who hath called us by his own proper glory and virtue.
3上帝的神能已將一切關乎生命和虔敬的事賜給我們,皆因我們認識那用自己榮耀和美德召我們的主。
4By whom he hath given us most great and precious promises: that by these you may be made partakers of the divine nature: flying the corruption of that concupiscence which is in the world.
4因此,他已將又寶貴又極大的應許賜給我們,叫我們既脫離世上從情慾來的敗壞,就得與上帝的性情有分。
5And you, employing all care, minister in your faith, virtue; and in virtue, knowledge;
5正因這緣故,你們要分外地殷勤;有了信心,又要加上德行;有了德行,又要加上知識;
6And in knowledge, abstinence; and in abstinence, patience; and in patience, godliness;
6有了知識,又要加上節制;有了節制,又要加上忍耐;有了忍耐,又要加上虔敬;
7And in godliness, love of brotherhood; and in love of brotherhood, charity.
7有了虔敬,又要加上愛弟兄的心;有了愛弟兄的心,又要加上愛 眾人的心 。
8For if these things be with you and abound, they will make you to be neither empty nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
8你們若充充足足地有這幾樣,就必使你們在認識我們的主耶穌基督上不至於閒懶不結果子了。
9For he that hath not these things with him, is blind, and groping, having forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
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。
10Wherefore, brethren, labour the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time.
10所以弟兄們,應當更加殷勤,使你們所蒙的恩召和揀選堅定不移。你們若行這幾樣,就永不失腳;
11For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
11這樣,必叫你們豐豐富富地得以進入我們主-救主耶穌基督永遠的國。
12For which cause I will begin to put you always in remembrance of these things: though indeed you know them, and are confirmed in the present truth.
12你們雖然曉得這些事,並且在你們已有的真道上堅固,我卻要將這些事常常提醒你們。
13But I think it meet as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance.
13我以為應當趁我還在這帳棚的時候提醒你們,激發你們;
14Being assured that the laying away of this my tabernacle is at hand, according as our Lord Jesus Christ also hath signified to me.
14因為知道我脫離這帳棚的時候快到了,正如我們主耶穌基督所指示我的。
15And I will endeavour, that you frequently have after my decease, whereby you may keep a memory of these things.
15並且,我要盡心竭力,使你們在我去世以後時常記念這些事。
16For we have not by following artificial fables, made known to you the power, and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ; but we were eyewitnesses of his greatness.
16我們從前將我們主耶穌基督的大能和他降臨的事告訴你們,並不是隨從乖巧捏造的虛言,乃是親眼見過他的威榮。
17For he received from God the Father, honour and glory: this voice coming down to him from the excellent glory: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
17他從父上帝得尊貴榮耀的時候,從極大榮光之中有聲音出來,向他說:「這是我的愛子,我所喜悅的。」
18And this voice we heard brought from heaven, when we were with him in the holy mount.
18我們同他在聖山的時候,親自聽見這聲音從天上出來。
19And we have the more firm prophetical word: whereunto you do well to attend, as to a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
19我們並有先知更確的預言,如同燈照在暗處。你們在這預言上留意,直等到天發亮,晨星在你們心裏出現的時候,才是好的。
20Understanding this first, that no prophecy of scripture is made by private interpretation.
20第一要緊的,該知道經上所有的預言沒有可隨私意解說的;
21For prophecy came not by the will of man at any time: but the holy men of God spoke, inspired by the Holy Ghost.
21因為預言從來沒有出於人意的,乃是人被聖靈感動,說出上帝的話來。
