ISA-11:9 ...for the earth shall be
full of the knowledge of the LORD,
as the waters cover the sea.

==== <2PE1>
2PE-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:
2PE-1:2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the
knowledge of God,
and of Jesus our Lord,
2PE-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:
2PE-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.
2PE-1:5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your
faith virtue; and
to virtue knowledge;
2PE-1:6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience;
and to
patience godliness;
2PE-1:7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly
kindness
charity.
2PE-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.
2PE-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.
2PE-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:
2PE-1:11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you
abundantly into the
everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
2PE-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.
2PE-1:13 Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this
tabernacle, to stir you
up by putting [you] in remembrance;
2PE-1:14 Knowing that shortly I must put off [this] my
tabernacle, even as our
Lord Jesus Christ hath showed me.
2PE-1:15 Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my
decease to
have these things always in remembrance.
2PE-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.
2PE-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.
2PE-1:18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when
we were with him
in the holy mount.
2PE-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:
2PE-1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture
is of any
private interpretation.
2PE-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.
==== <2PE2>
2PE-2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people,
even as there
shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in
damnable
heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon
themselves
swift destruction.
2PE-2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason
of whom the way
of truth shall be evil spoken of.
2PE-2:3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words
make
merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth
not, and their
damnation slumbereth not.
2PE-2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast
[them] down to
hell, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be
reserved unto
judgment;
2PE-2:5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth
[person], a
preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world
of the ungodly;
2PE-2:6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes
condemned
[them] with an overthrow, making [them] an ensample unto those
that after
should live ungodly;
2PE-2:7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy
conversation of the
wicked:
2PE-2:8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing
and hearing,
vexed [his] righteous soul from day to day with [their] unlawful
deeds;)
2PE-2:9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of
temptations, and to
reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
2PE-2:10 But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust
of
uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous [are they],
selfwilled, they
are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
2PE-2:11 Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might,
bring not
railing accusation against them before the Lord.
2PE-2:12 But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken
and destroyed,
speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall
utterly perish in
their own corruption;
2PE-2:13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, [as]
they that count
it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots [they are] and
blemishes, sporting
themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
2PE-2:14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease
from sin;
beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with
covetous practices;
cursed children:
2PE-2:15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray,
following the
way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of
unrighteousness;
2PE-2:16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass
speaking with man's
voice forbad the madness of the prophet.
2PE-2:17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried
with a
tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.
2PE-2:18 For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity,
they allure
through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] wantonness, those
that were
clean escaped from them who live in error.
2PE-2:19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are
the servants of
corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he
brought in
bondage.
2PE-2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the
world through
the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are
again entangled
therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than
the beginning.
2PE-2:21 For it had been better for them not to have known the
way of
righteousness, than, after they have known [it], to turn from
the holy
commandment delivered unto them.
2PE-2:22 But it is happened unto them according to the true
proverb, The dog
[is] turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed
to her
wallowing in the mire.
==== <2PE3>
2PE-3:1 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in
[both] which I
stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:
2PE-3:2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken
before by the
holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the
Lord and
Saviour:
2PE-3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last
days scoffers,
walking after their own lusts,
2PE-3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for
since the fathers
fell asleep, all things continue as [they were] from the
beginning of the
creation.
2PE-3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the
word of God the
heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and
in the water:
2PE-3:6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with
water,
perished:
2PE-3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the
same word are
kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment
and perdition of
ungodly men.
2PE-3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that
one day [is]
with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one
day.
2PE-3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some
men count
slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any
should perish,
but that all should come to repentance.
2PE-3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the
night; in the
which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the
elements shall
melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are
therein shall be
burned up.
2PE-3:11 [Seeing] then [that] all these things shall be
dissolved, what manner
[of persons] ought ye to be in [all] holy conversation and
godliness,
2PE-3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of
God, wherein
the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements
shall melt with
fervent heat?
2PE-3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for
new heavens and a
new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
2PE-3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such
things, be diligent
that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and
blameless.
2PE-3:15 And account [that] the longsuffering of our Lord [is]
salvation; even
as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given
unto him hath
written unto you;
2PE-3:16 As also in all [his] epistles, speaking in them of
these things; in
which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are
unlearned and
unstable wrest, as [they do] also the other scriptures, unto
their own
destruction.
2PE-3:17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know [these things]
before, beware
lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall
from your own
stedfastness.
2PE-3:18 But grow in grace, and [in] the knowledge of our Lord
and Saviour
Jesus Christ. To him [be] glory both now and for ever. Amen.
