Bible, King James Version


2Pet.1 Verses 15 to 21


    [15] Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.
    [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.
    [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.
    [18] And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
    [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:
    [20] Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
    [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.
