2 Peter 1:3-10

LITV(i) 3 As His divine power has given to us all things pertaining to life and godliness through the full knowledge of the One calling us through glory and virtue, 4 by which means He has given to us the very great and precious promises, so that through these you might be partakers of the divine nature, escaping from the corruption in the world by lust. 5 But also in this very thing, bringing in all diligence, filling in your faith with virtue; and virtue with knowledge; 6 and knowledge with self-control; and self-control with patience; and patience with godliness; 7 and godliness with brotherly love; and brotherly love with love. 8 For these things being in you, and abounding, they will make you not idle, not unfruitful in the full knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 For the one in whom these things are not present is blind, being shortsighted, taking on forgetfulness of the cleansing of his sins in time past. 10 On account of this, brothers, rather be diligent to make sure of your calling and election; for doing these things, you will not ever fall into sin .
