2 Peter 1:2-7
King James Version
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.

La Bible du Semeur
2 Que la grâce et la paix vous soient données en abondance par la connaissance de Dieu et de Jésus, notre Seigneur.
L’appel de Dieu et ses effets
3 Par sa puissance, en effet, Dieu nous a donné tout ce qu’il faut pour vivre dans la piété, en nous faisant connaître celui qui nous a appelés par la manifestation de sa propre gloire et l’intervention de sa force. 4 Ainsi, nous bénéficions des dons infiniment précieux que Dieu nous avait promis. Il a voulu, par ces dons, vous rendre conformes au caractère de Dieu[a], vous qui avez fui la corruption que les mauvais désirs font régner dans ce monde.
5 Pour cette raison même, faites tous vos efforts pour ajouter à votre foi la vertu, à la vertu[b] la connaissance, 6 à la connaissance la maîtrise de soi, à la maîtrise de soi l’endurance dans l’épreuve, à l’endurance la piété, 7 à la piété l’affection fraternelle, et à l’affection fraternelle l’amour.
