2 Peter 1:3-9

Godbey(i) 3 As His divine power having given unto us all things which appertain to life and godliness, through the perfect knowledge of the one having called us to his own glory and virtue: 4 through which precious and greatest promises have been given unto us; that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5 And in harmony with this same thing also, add to your faith heroism; and to heroism, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge holiness; and to holiness patience; and patience, godliness; 7 and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness divine love. 8 For these things, being in you and overflowing, render you neither barren nor unfruitful in the perfect knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ; 9 for he unto whom these things are not present is blind, not seeing afar off, having received the forgetfulness of his purgation from his old sins.
