[1]SimonG4826 PeterG4074, a servantG1401 andG2532 an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to them that have obtainedG2975[G5631] like preciousG2472 faithG4102 with usG2254 throughG1722 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 andG2532 ourG2257 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: |
| [2]grace and pees be fillid to you, bi the knowing of oure Lord Jhesu Crist. |
[2]GraceG5485 andG2532 peaceG1515 be multipliedG4129[G5684] unto youG5213 throughG1722 the knowledgeG1922 of GodG2316, andG2532 of JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962, |
| [3]Hou alle thingis of his godlich vertu, that ben to lijf and pitee, ben youun to vs, bi the knowyng of hym, that clepide vs for his owne glorie and vertu. |
[3]According asG5613 hisG846 divineG2304 powerG1411 hath givenG1433[G5772] unto usG2254 all thingsG3956 that pertain untoG4314 lifeG2222 andG2532 godlinessG2150, throughG1223 the knowledgeG1922 of him that hath calledG2564[G5660] usG2248 toG1223 gloryG1391 andG2532 virtueG703: |
| [4]Bi whom he yaf to vs moost preciouse biheestis; that bi these thingis ye schulen be maad felows of Goddis kynde, and fle the corrupcioun of that coueytise, that is in the world. |
[4]WherebyG1223[G3739] are givenG1433[G5769] unto usG2254 exceeding greatG3176 andG2532 preciousG5093 promisesG1862: thatG2443 byG1223 theseG5130 ye might beG1096[G5638] partakersG2844 of the divineG2304 natureG5449, having escapedG668[G5631] the corruptionG5356 that is inG1722 the worldG2889 throughG1722 lustG1939. |
| [5]And bringe ye in alle bisynesse, and mynystre ye in youre feith vertu, and `in vertu kunnyng; |
[5]AndG2532[G1161] besideG846 thisG5124, givingG3923[G5660] allG3956 diligenceG4710, addG2023[G5657] toG1722 yourG5216 faithG4102 virtueG703; andG1161 toG1722 virtueG703 knowledgeG1108; |
| [6]in kunnyng abstinence, in abstynence pacience, in pacience pitee; |
[6]AndG1161 toG1722 knowledgeG1108 temperanceG1466; andG1161 toG1722 temperanceG1466 patienceG5281; andG1161 toG1722 patienceG5281 godlinessG2150; |
| [7]in pitee, love of britherhod, and in loue of britherhod charite. |
[7]AndG1161 toG1722 godlinessG2150 brotherly kindnessG5360; andG1161 toG1722 brotherly kindnessG5360 charityG26. |
| [8]For if these ben with you, and ouercomen, thei schulen not make you voide, nethir with out fruyt, in the knowyng of oure Lord Jhesu Crist. |
[8]ForG1063 if these thingsG5023 beG5225[G5723] in youG5213, andG2532 aboundG4121[G5723], they makeG2525[G5719] you that ye shall neitherG3756 be barrenG692 norG3761 unfruitfulG175 inG1519 the knowledgeG1922 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. |
| [9]But to whom these ben not redi, he is blynd, and gropith with his hoond, and foryetith the purgyng of his elde trespassis. |
[9]ButG1063 he thatG3739 lackethG3361[G3918][G5748] these thingsG5023 isG2076[G5748] blindG5185, and cannot see afar offG3467[G5723], and hath forgottenG3024[G2983][G5631] that he was purged fromG2512 hisG846 oldG3819 sinsG266. |
| [10]Wherfor, britheren, be ye more bisi, that by goode werkis ye make youre clepyng and chesyng certeyn; |
[10]WhereforeG1352 the ratherG3123, brethrenG80, give diligenceG4704[G5657] to makeG4160[G5733] yourG5216 callingG2821 andG2532 electionG1589 sureG949: forG1063 if ye doG4160[G5723] these thingsG5023, ye shallG4218[G4417] neverG3364 fallG4218[G4417]:[G5661] |
| [11]for ye doynge these thingis schulen not do synne ony tyme. For thus the entryng in to euerlastynge kyngdom of oure Lord and sauyour Jhesu Crist, schal be mynystrid to you plenteuousli. |
[11]ForG1063 soG3779 an entranceG1529 shall be ministeredG2023[G5701] unto youG5213 abundantlyG4146 intoG1519 the everlastingG166 kingdomG932 of ourG2257 LordG2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. |
| [12]For which thing Y schal bigynne to moneste you euere more of these thingis; and Y wole that ye be kunnynge, and confermyd in this present treuthe. |
[12]WhereforeG1352 I willG272 notG3756 be negligentG272[G5692] to putG5279 youG5209 alwaysG104 in remembranceG5279[G5721] ofG4012 these thingsG5130, thoughG2539 ye knowG1492[G5761] them, andG2532 be establishedG4741[G5772] inG1722 the presentG3918[G5752] truthG225. |
| [13]Forsothe Y deme iustli, as long as Y am in this tabernacle, to reise you in monesting; and Y am certeyn, |
[13]YeaG1161, I think itG2233[G5736] meetG1342, as long asG1909[G3745] I amG1510[G5748] inG1722 thisG5129 tabernacleG4638, to stirG1326 youG5209 upG1326[G5721] byG1722 putting you in remembranceG5280; |
| [14]that the putting awei of my tabernacle is swift, bi this that oure Lord Jhesu Crist hath schewid to me. |
[14]KnowingG1492[G5761] thatG3754 shortlyG5031 I mustG2076[G5748] put offG595 this myG3450 tabernacleG4638, evenG2532 asG2531 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 hath shewedG1213[G5656] meG3427. |
| [15]But Y schal yyue bisynesse, and ofte after my deth ye haue mynde of these thingis. |
[15]MoreoverG1161[G2532] I will endeavourG4704[G5692] that yeG5209 may be ableG2192[G5721] afterG3326 myG1699 deceaseG1841 to haveG4160[G5733] these thingsG5130 alwaysG1539 in remembranceG3420. |
| [16]For we not suynge vnwise talis, han maad knowun to you the vertu and the biforknowyng of oure Lord Jhesu Crist; but we weren maad biholderis of his greetnesse. |
[16]ForG1063 we haveG1811 notG3756 followedG1811[G5660] cunningly devisedG4679[G5772] fablesG3454, when we made knownG1107[G5656] unto youG5213 the powerG1411 andG2532 comingG3952 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, butG235 wereG1096[G5679] eyewitnessesG2030 of hisG1565 majestyG3168. |
| [17]For he took of God the fadir onour and glorie, bi siche maner vois slidun doun to hym fro the greet glorie, This is my loued sone, in whom Y haue plesid to me; here ye hym. |
[17]ForG1063 he receivedG2983[G5631] fromG3844 GodG2316 the FatherG3962 honourG5092 andG2532 gloryG1391, when there cameG5342[G5685] suchG5107 a voiceG5456 to himG846 fromG5259 the excellentG3169 gloryG1391, ThisG3778 isG2076[G5748] myG3450 belovedG27 SonG5207, inG1519 whomG3739 IG1473 am well pleasedG2106.[G5656] |
| [18]And we herden this vois brouyt from heuene, whanne we weren with hym in the hooli hil. |
[18]AndG2532 thisG5026 voiceG5456 which cameG5342[G5685] fromG1537 heavenG3772 weG2249 heardG191[G5656], when we wereG5607[G5752] withG4862 himG846 inG1722 the holyG40 mountG3735. |
| [19]And we han a saddere word of prophecie, to which ye yyuynge tent don wel, as to a lanterne that yyueth liyt in a derk place, til the dai bigynne to yyue liyt, and the dai sterre sprenge in youre hertis. |
[19]We haveG2192[G5719] alsoG2532 a more sureG949 wordG3056 of prophecyG4397; whereuntoG3739 ye doG4160[G5719] wellG2573 that ye take heedG4337[G5723], asG5613 unto a lightG3088 that shinethG5316[G5730] inG1722 a darkG850 placeG5117, untilG2193[G3739] the dayG2250 dawnG1306[G5661], andG2532 the day starG5459 ariseG393[G5661] inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588: |
| [20]And firste vndurstonde ye this thing, that ech prophesie of scripture is not maad bi propre interpretacioun; |
[20]KnowingG1097[G5723] thisG5124 firstG4412, thatG3754 noG3756[G3956] prophecyG4394 of the scriptureG1124 isG1096[G5736] of any privateG2398 interpretationG1955. |
| [21]for prophesie was not brouyt ony tyme bi mannus wille, but the hooli men of God inspirid with the Hooli Goost spaken. |
[21]ForG1063 the prophecyG4394 cameG5342[G5681] notG3756 in old timeG4218 by the willG2307 of manG444: butG235 holyG40 menG444 of GodG2316 spakeG2980[G5656] as they were movedG5342[G5746] byG5259 the HolyG40 GhostG4151. |
