RKJNT(i)
3 Whose divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who has called us by his own glory and virtue:
4 By which he has given to us exceedingly great and precious promises: that by these you might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
5 For this very reason, give all diligence to add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge self-control; and to self-control perseverance; and to perseverance godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness love.
8 For if these things are in you, and are increasing, they keep you from being either ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 But he who lacks these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and has forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
