+  <chapter no='1'>
+    <verse no='1'>Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to  them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the  righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge  of God, and of Jesus our Lord,</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>According as his divine power hath given unto us all things  that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that  hath called us to glory and virtue:</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious  promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature,  having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith  virtue; and to virtue knowledge;</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and  to patience godliness;</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly  kindness charity.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you  that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our  Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see  afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your  calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never  fall:</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly  into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in  remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in  the present truth.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to  stir you up by putting you in remembrance;</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even  as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my  decease to have these things always in remembrance.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we  made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but  were eyewitnesses of his majesty.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when  there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my  beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were  with him in the holy mount.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do  well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place,  until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of  any private interpretation.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man:  but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='2'>
+    <verse no='1'>But there were false prophets also among the people, even as  there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in  damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring  upon themselves swift destruction.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of  whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make  merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not,  and their damnation slumbereth not.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them  down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be  reserved unto judgment;</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth  person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the  world of the ungodly;</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes  condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those  that after should live ungodly;</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation  of the wicked:</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and  hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful  deeds;)</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of  temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be  punished:</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of  uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled,  they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring  not railing accusation against them before the Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and  destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall  utterly perish in their own corruption;</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they  that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and  blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they  feast with you;</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from  sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with  covetous practices; cursed children:</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray,  following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of  unrighteousness;</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with  man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with  a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they  allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those  that were clean escaped from them who live in error.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the  servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is  he brought in bondage.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world  through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are  again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with  them than the beginning.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>For it had been better for them not to have known the way of  righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy  commandment delivered unto them.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb,  The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed  to her wallowing in the mire.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='3'>
+    <verse no='1'>This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both  which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before  by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the  Lord and Saviour:</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days  scoffers, walking after their own lusts,</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since  the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the  beginning of the creation.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of  God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water  and in the water:</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with  water, perished:</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same  word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment  and perdition of ungodly men.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one  day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one  day.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men  count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any  should perish, but that all should come to repentance.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night;  in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the  elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works  that are therein shall be burned up.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what  manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and  godliness,</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God,  wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements  shall melt with fervent heat?</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new  heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be  diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and  blameless.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation;  even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given  unto him hath written unto you;</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these  things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that  are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures,  unto their own destruction.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before,  beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall  from your own stedfastness.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and  Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.</verse>
