2 Peter 1:12–18

12 Therefore, aI will always be ready to remind you of these things, even though you already know them, and have been established in bthe truth which is present with you.

13 I consider it aright, as long as I am in bthis earthly dwelling, to cstir you up by way of reminder,

14 knowing that athe laying aside of my earthly dwelling is imminent, bas also our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.

15 And I will also be diligent that at any time after my adeparture you will be able to call these things to mind.

Eyewitnesses

16 For we did not follow cleverly devised atales when we made known to you the bpower and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were ceyewitnesses of His majesty.

17 For when He received honor and glory from God the Father, such an 1 autterance as this was 2made to Him by the bMajestic Glory, “This is My beloved Son with whom I am well-pleased”—

18 and we ourselves heard this 1utterance made from heaven when we were with Him on the aholy mountain.
