1 Od Simona Petra, sluge i apostola Isusa Hrista, onima što su primili s nama jednu časnu veru u pravdi Boga našeg i spasa Isusa Hrista: 2 Blagodat i mir da vam se umnoži poznavanjem Boga i Hrista Isusa Gospoda našeg. 3 Budući da su nam sve božanstvene sile Njegove, koje trebaju k životu i pobožnosti, darovane poznanjem Onog koji nas pozva slavom i dobrodetelji, 4 kroz koje se nama darovaše časna i prevelika obećanja, da njih radi imate deo u Božjoj prirodi, ako utečete od telesnih želja ovog sveta. 5 I na samo ovo okrenite sve staranje svoje da pokažete u veri svojoj dobrodetelj, a u dobrodetelji razum, 6 a u razumu uzdržanje, a u uzdržanju trpljenje, a u trpljenju pobožnost, 7 a u pobožnosti bratoljublje, a u bratoljublju ljubav. 8 Jer kad je ovo u vama, i množi se, neće vas ostaviti lene niti bez ploda u poznanju Gospoda našeg Isusa Hrista. 9 A ko nema ovog slep je, i pipa zaboravivši očišćenje od starih svojih greha. 10 Zato, braćo, postarajte se još većma da svoju službu i izbor utvrdite; jer čineći ovo nećete pogrešiti nikad; 11 jer vam se tako obilno dopusti ulazak u večno carstvo Gospoda našeg i spasa Isusa Hrista. 12 Zato se neću oleniti opominjati vam jednako ovo, ako i znate i utvrđeni ste u ovoj istini; 13 jer mislim da je pravo dokle sam god u ovom telu da vas budim opominjanjem, 14 znajući da ću skoro telo svoje odbaciti kao što mi kaza i Gospod naš Isus Hristos. 15 A trudiću se svakako da se i po rastanku mom možete opominjati ovog. 16 Jer vam ne pokazasmo silu i dolazak Gospoda našeg Isusa Hrista po pripovetkama mudro izmišljenim, nego smo sami videli slavu Njegovu. 17 Jer on primi od Boga Oca čast i slavu kad dođe k Njemu takav glas: Ovo je Sin moj ljubazni, koji je po mojoj volji. 18 I ovaj glas mi čusmo gde siđe s neba kad bejasmo s Njim na svetoj gori. 19 I imamo najpouzdaniju proročku reč, i dobro činite što pazite na nju, kao na videlo koje svetli u tamnom mestu, dokle dan ne osvane i danica se ne rodi u srcima vašim. 20 I ovo znajte najpre da nijedno proroštvo književno ne biva po svom kazivanju; 21 jer nikad proroštvo ne bi od čovečije volje, nego naučeni od Svetog Duha govoriše sveti Božiji ljudi.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The Apostle Peter says, "We have a more sure word of prophecy, whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts."

For thus we come to bear Christ in us, because His Body and Blood are distributed through our members; thus it is that, according to the blessed Peter, we become partakers of the divine nature.

Of this lamp the Apostle Peter says: "We have a more sure word of prophecy, to which ye do well giving heed, as unto a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts." Accordingly the prophets are lamps, and all prophecy one great lamp.
