2 Peter 1:5-11

Darby Translation

⁵ But for this very reason also, using therewith all diligence, in your faith have also virtue, in virtue knowledge,

⁶ in knowledge temperance, in temperance endurance, in endurance godliness,

⁷ in godliness brotherly love, in brotherly love love:

⁸ for these things existing and abounding in you make [you] to be neither idle nor unfruitful as regards the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ;

⁹ for he with whom these things are not present is blind, short-sighted, and has forgotten the purging of his former sins.

¹⁰ Wherefore the rather, brethren, use diligence to make your calling and election sure, for doing these things ye will never fall;

¹¹ for thus shall the entrance into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ be richly furnished unto you.
