As his divine power having bestowed upon us all things which for life and devotion, by the knowledge of him having called us by glory and fitness:

For having received from God the Father honour and glory, and such a voice brought to him from the magnificent glory, This is my dearly beloved Son, in whom I was contented.

And this voice brought from heaven we heard, being with him in the holy mountain.

Promising them liberty, they being servants of corruption: for by whom any is conquered, by him has he been made to serve.

Wherefore, dearly beloved, expecting these, be earnest, spotless and blameless, to be found by him in peace.

And the longsuffering of our Lord deem ye salvation; as also our dearly beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you;

And grow ye in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him the glory now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
