And, for this very reason also - adding, on your part, all diligence, supply, in your faith, excellence, and, in your excellence, knowledge,

Right, nevertheless, I account it - as long as I am in this tent, to be stirring you up by putting you in remembrance,

For, when he received from God the Father honour and glory, a voice, being borne to him such as this, by the magnificent glory - My Son, the beloved, is, this, in whom, I, delight,

Even this voice, we, heard, when, out of heaven, it was borne, we being, with him, in the holy mount.

Of this, first, taking note - that, no prophecy of scripture, becometh, self-solving;

This, already, beloved, is the second letter I am writing unto you; and, in these letters, I am stirring up - by way of calling to remembrance - your uncorrupted mind,

Of this, first, taking note - that there will come, in the last of the days, with scoffing, scoffers, after their own covetings, going on,

For this they, willfully, forget - that there were, heavens, from of old, and, an earth, on account of water and by means of water, compacted, by God's word, -

But, this one thing, forget not, beloved, - that, one day, with the Lord, is as a thousand years, and, a thousand years, as one day.
