but as ye have share in the sufferings of Christ, rejoice, that in the revelation of his glory also ye may rejoice with exultation.

But the God of all grace who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, when ye have suffered for a little while, himself shall make perfect, stablish, strengthen, ground:

As his divine power has given to us all things which relate to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that has called us by glory and virtue,

for he with whom these things are not present is blind, short-sighted, and has forgotten the purging of his former sins.

For we have not made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, following cleverly imagined fables, but having been eyewitnesses of *his* majesty.

(for the righteous man through seeing and hearing, dwelling among them, tormented [his] righteous soul day after day with [their] lawless works,)

but had reproof of his own wickedness—[the] dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the folly of the prophet.

But that [word] of the true proverb has happened to them: [The] dog [has] turned back to his own vomit; and, [The] washed sow to [her] rolling in mud.

and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for from the time the fathers fell asleep all things remain thus from [the] beginning of [the] creation.

But the present heavens and the earth by his word are laid up in store, kept for fire unto a day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

[The] Lord does not delay his promise, as some account of delay, but is longsuffering towards you, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

But, according to his promise, we wait for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness.

as also in all [his] epistles, speaking in them of these things; among which some things are hard to be understood, which the untaught and ill-established wrest, as also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.

that which we have seen and heard we report to you, that *ye* also may have fellowship with us; and our fellowship [is] indeed with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

But if we walk in the light as *he* is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin.

If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

And hereby we know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

He that says, I know him, and does not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;

but whoever keeps his word, in him verily the love of God is perfected. Hereby we know that we are in him.

He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in the darkness until now.
