彼得後書 1
Revised Chinese Union Version (Traditional Script) Shen Edition
問候
1 耶穌基督的僕人和使徒西門‧彼得[a]寫信給那因我們的 神和[b]救主耶穌基督的義,與我們同得一樣寶貴信心的人。 2 願恩惠、平安[c],因你們認識 神和我們的主耶穌,多多加給你們!
信徒的蒙召和被選
3 神的神能已把一切關乎生命和虔敬的事賜給我們,因我們認識那用自己榮耀和美德召我們的 神。 4 因此,他已把又寶貴又極大的應許賜給我們,使我們既脫離世上從情慾來的敗壞,就得分享 神的本性。 5 正因這緣故,你們要分外地努力。有了信心,又要加上德行;有了德行,又要加上知識; 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; 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。 8 你們有了這幾樣,再繼續增長,就必使你們在認識我們的主耶穌基督上,不至於懶散和不結果子了。 9 沒有這幾樣的人就是瞎眼,是短視,忘了他過去的罪已經得了潔淨。 10 所以,弟兄們,要更加努力,使你們的蒙召和被選堅定不移。你們實行這幾樣,就永不失腳。 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度。
12 雖然你們已經知道這些事,並且在你們已有的真道上得到堅固,我還是要常常提醒你們這些事。 13 我認為趁我還在這帳棚的時候,應該激發你們的記憶, 14 因為知道我脫離這帳棚的時候快到了,正如我們的主耶穌基督所指示我的。 15 我也要盡心竭力,使你們在我去世以後時常記念這些事。
基督的榮耀和先知的信息
16 我們從前把我們主耶穌基督的大能和他來臨的事告訴你們,並不是隨從一些捏造出來的無稽傳說,我們是曾經親眼見過他的威榮的人。 17 他從父 神得尊貴榮耀的時候,從至高無上的榮耀有聲音出來,對他說:「這是我的愛子,我所喜悅的。」 18 我們同他在聖山的時候,親自聽見這聲音從天上出來。
19 我們有先知更確實的信息,你們要好好地留意這信息,如同留意照耀在暗處的明燈,直等到天亮,晨星在你們心裏升起的時候。 20 第一要緊的,你們要知道,經上所有的預言是不可隨私意解釋的, 21 因為預言從來沒有出於人意的,而是人被聖靈感動說出 神的話來。
2 Peter 1
New International Version
1 Simon Peter, a servant(A) and apostle of Jesus Christ,(B)
To those who through the righteousness(C) of our God and Savior Jesus Christ(D) have received a faith as precious as ours:
2 Grace and peace be yours in abundance(E) through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.(F)
Confirming One’s Calling and Election
3 His divine power(G) has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him(H) who called us(I) by his own glory and goodness. 4 Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises,(J) so that through them you may participate in the divine nature,(K) having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.(L)
5 For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge;(M) 6 and to knowledge, self-control;(N) and to self-control, perseverance;(O) and to perseverance, godliness;(P) 7 and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love.(Q) 8 For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive(R) in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.(S) 9 But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind,(T) forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins.(U)
10 Therefore, my brothers and sisters,[a] make every effort to confirm your calling(V) and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble,(W) 11 and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom(X) of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.(Y)
Prophecy of Scripture
12 So I will always remind you of these things,(Z) even though you know them and are firmly established in the truth(AA) you now have. 13 I think it is right to refresh your memory(AB) as long as I live in the tent of this body,(AC) 14 because I know that I will soon put it aside,(AD) as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.(AE) 15 And I will make every effort to see that after my departure(AF) you will always be able to remember these things.
16 For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power,(AG) but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.(AH) 17 He received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”[b](AI) 18 We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain.(AJ)
19 We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable,(AK) and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light(AL) shining in a dark place, until the day dawns(AM) and the morning star(AN) rises in your hearts.(AO) 20 Above all, you must understand(AP) that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things. 21 For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God(AQ) as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.(AR)

2 Peter 1
King James Version
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:
2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
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:
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.
5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
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.
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.
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
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.
13 Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;
14 Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.
15 Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.
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.
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.
18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
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:
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
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.
