Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ:
1συμεων πετροσ δουλοσ και αποστολοσ ιησου χριστου τοισ ισοτιμον ημιν λαχουσιν πιστιν εν δικαιοσυνη του θεου ημων και σωτηροσ ιησου χριστου
2Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
2χαρισ υμιν και ειρηνη πληθυνθειη εν επιγνωσει του θεου και ιησου του κυριου ημων
3seeing 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,
3ωσ παντα ημιν τησ θειασ δυναμεωσ αυτου τα προσ ζωην και ευσεβειαν δεδωρημενησ δια τησ επιγνωσεωσ του καλεσαντοσ ημασ δια δοξησ και αρετησ
4by 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.
4δι ων τα τιμια ημιν και μεγιστα επαγγελματα δεδωρηται ινα δια τουτων γενησθε θειασ κοινωνοι φυσεωσ αποφυγοντεσ τησ εν κοσμω εν επιθυμια φθορασ
5Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
5και αυτο τουτο δε σπουδην πασαν παρεισενεγκαντεσ επιχορηγησατε εν τη πιστει υμων την αρετην εν δε τη αρετη την γνωσιν
6and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;
6εν δε τη γνωσει την εγκρατειαν εν δε τη εγκρατεια την υπομονην εν δε τη υπομονη την ευσεβειαν
7and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
7εν δε τη ευσεβεια την φιλαδελφιαν εν δε τη φιλαδελφια την αγαπην
8For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to not be idle or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
8ταυτα γαρ υμιν υπαρχοντα και πλεοναζοντα ουκ αργουσ ουδε ακαρπουσ καθιστησιν εισ την του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου επιγνωσιν
9For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
9ω γαρ μη παρεστιν ταυτα τυφλοσ εστιν μυωπαζων ληθην λαβων του καθαρισμου των παλαι αυτου αμαρτιων
10Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
10διο μαλλον αδελφοι σπουδασατε βεβαιαν υμων την κλησιν και εκλογην ποιεισθαι ταυτα γαρ ποιουντεσ ου μη πταισητε ποτε
11For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
11ουτωσ γαρ πλουσιωσ επιχορηγηθησεται υμιν η εισοδοσ εισ την αιωνιον βασιλειαν του κυριου ημων και σωτηροσ ιησου χριστου
12Therefore I will not be negligent to remind you of these things, though you know them and are established in the present truth.
12διο ουκ αμελησω αει υμασ υπομιμνησκειν περι τουτων καιπερ ειδοτασ και εστηριγμενουσ εν τη παρουση αληθεια
13I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you,
13δικαιον δε ηγουμαι εφ οσον ειμι εν τουτω τω σκηνωματι διεγειρειν υμασ εν υπομνησει
14knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
14ειδωσ οτι ταχινη εστιν η αποθεσισ του σκηνωματοσ μου καθωσ και ο κυριοσ ημων ιησουσ χριστοσ εδηλωσεν μοι
15Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
15σπουδασω δε και εκαστοτε εχειν υμασ μετα την εμην εξοδον την τουτων μνημην ποιεισθαι
16For we didn’t follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
16ου γαρ σεσοφισμενοισ μυθοισ εξακολουθησαντεσ εγνωρισαμεν υμιν την του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου δυναμιν και παρουσιαν αλλ εποπται γενηθεντεσ τησ εκεινου μεγαλειοτητοσ
17For he received from God the Father honor and glory when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
17λαβων 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
18We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
18και ταυτην την φωνην ημεισ ηκουσαμεν εξ ουρανου ενεχθεισαν συν αυτω οντεσ εν τω ορει τω αγιω
19We 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,
19και 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
20knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
20τουτο πρωτον γινωσκοντεσ οτι πασα προφητεια γραφησ ιδιασ επιλυσεωσ ου γινεται
21For no prophecy ever came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
21ου γαρ θεληματι ανθρωπου ηνεχθη ποτε προφητεια αλλ υπο πνευματοσ αγιου φερομενοι ελαλησαν αγιοι θεου ανθρωποι
