1 Симон Петр, раб и Апостол Иисуса Христа, принявшим с нами равно драгоценную веру по правде Бога нашего и Спасителя Иисуса Христа:
1 Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ:
2 благодать и мир вам да умножится в познании Бога и Христа Иисуса, Господа нашего.
2 Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
3 Как от Божественной силы Его даровано нам все потребное для жизни и благочестия, через познание Призвавшего нас славою и благостию,
3 seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue,
4 которыми дарованы нам великие и драгоценные обетования, дабы вы через них соделались причастниками Божеского естества, удалившись от господствующего в мире растления похотью:
4 by which he has granted to us his precious and exceedingly great promises; that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.
5 то вы, прилагая к сему все старание, покажите в вере вашей добродетель, в добродетели рассудительность,
5 Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
6 в рассудительности воздержание, в воздержании терпение, в терпении благочестие,
6 and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;
7 в благочестии братолюбие, в братолюбии любовь.
7 and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
8 Если это в вас есть и умножается, то вы не останетесь без успеха и плода в познании Господа нашего Иисуса Христа.
8 For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to not be idle or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 А в ком нет сего, тот слеп, закрыл глаза, забыл об очищении прежних грехов своих.
9 For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
10 Посему, братия, более и более старайтесь делать твердым ваше звание и избрание; так поступая, никогда не преткнетесь,
10 Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
11 ибо так откроется вам свободный вход в вечное Царство Господа нашего и Спасителя Иисуса Христа.
11 For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
12 Для того я никогда не перестану напоминать вам о сем, хотя вы то и знаете, и утверждены в настоящей истине.
12 Therefore I will not be negligent to remind you of these things, though you know them and are established in the present truth.
13 Справедливым же почитаю, доколе нахожусь в этой телесной храмине, возбуждать вас напоминанием,
13 I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you,
14 зная, что скоро должен оставить храмину мою, как и Господь наш Иисус Христос открыл мне.
14 knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
15 Буду же стараться, чтобы вы и после моего отшествия всегда приводили это на память.
15 Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
16 Ибо мы возвестили вам силу и пришествие Господа нашего Иисуса Христа, не хитросплетенным басням последуя, но быв очевидцами Его величия.
16 For we didn’t follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 Ибо Он принял от Бога Отца честь и славу, когда от велелепной славы принесся к Нему такой глас: Сей есть Сын Мой возлюбленный, в Котором Мое благоволение.
17 For he received from God the Father honor and glory when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
18 И этот глас, принесшийся с небес, мы слышали, будучи с Ним на святой горе.
18 We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
19 И притом мы имеем вернейшее пророческое слово; и вы хорошо делаете, что обращаетесь к нему, как к светильнику, сияющему в темном месте, доколе не начнет рассветать день и не взойдет утренняя звезда в сердцах ваших,
19 We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts,
20 зная прежде всего то, что никакого пророчества в Писании нельзя разрешить самому собою.
20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
21 Ибо никогда пророчество не было произносимо по воле человеческой, но изрекали его святые Божии человеки, будучи движимы Духом Святым.
21 For no prophecy ever came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.

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.

"We have," saith the Apostle Peter, "a more sure word of prophecy, to which ye do well to give heed, as to a lamp in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts."
