2 Peter 1:5-10 But also in this very thing, bringing in all diligence, filling out your faith with virtue, and with virtue, knowledge;

MKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ But also in this very thing, bringing in all diligence, filling out your faith with virtue, and with virtue, knowledge; ⁶ and with knowledge self-control, and with self-control, patience, and with patience, godliness, ⁷ and with godliness, brotherly kindness, and with brotherly kindness, love. ⁸ For if these things are in you and abound, they make you to be neither idle nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹ For he in whom these things are not present is blind and cannot see afar off and has forgotten that he was purged from his sins in the past. ¹⁰ Therefore, brothers, rather be diligent to make your calling and election sure, for if you do these things, you shall never fall.
