2 Peter 3:11

Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong!

Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

No man will be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not fail you nor forsake you.

Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, “I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.”

Yahweh himself is who goes before you. He will be with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be discouraged.”

The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.

Without controversy, the mystery of godliness is great: God was revealed in the flesh, justified in the spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, and received up in glory.

Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid or scared of them; for Yahweh your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you.”

So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and of the household of God,

For our citizenship is in heaven, from where we also wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity.

In all things be showing yourself an example of good works. In your teaching, be showing integrity, seriousness, incorruptibility,

Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report: if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, think about these things.

Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

For Yahweh will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake, because it has pleased Yahweh to make you a people for himself.

For God’s Kingdom is not in word, but in power.

and that our Good News came to you not in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and with much assurance. You know what kind of men we showed ourselves to be among you for your sake.

not as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.

I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Having therefore these promises, beloved, let’s cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,

But you, man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.

but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior;

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, which will cause the burning heavens to be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

David said to Solomon his son, “Be strong and courageous, and do it. Don’t be afraid, nor be dismayed; for Yahweh God, even my God, is with you. He will not fail you, nor forsake you, until all the work for the service of Yahweh’s house is finished.

Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.

“Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal;

that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him,

Therefore, my brothers, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.

But godliness with contentment is great gain.

Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.

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,

Behold, I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you.”

This is what Yahweh, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer, Yahweh of Armies, says: “I am the first, and I am the last; and besides me there is no God.

Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient.

All of the army of the sky will be dissolved. The sky will be rolled up like a scroll, and all its armies will fade away, as a leaf fades from off a vine or a fig tree.

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look at the earth beneath; for the heavens will vanish away like smoke, and the earth will wear out like a garment. Its inhabitants will die in the same way, but my salvation will be forever, and my righteousness will not be abolished.

Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

But you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels,

The poor and needy seek water, and there is none. Their tongue fails for thirst. I, Yahweh, will answer them. I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them.

Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing?

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that you sent me.

Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

You are witnesses with God how holy, righteously, and blamelessly we behaved ourselves toward you who believe.

For bodily exercise has some value, but godliness has value in all things, having the promise of the life which is now, and of that which is to come.

His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, who, when he had by himself purified us of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high,

For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.

Yes, a man will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control perseverance; and in perseverance godliness;

Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without defect and blameless in his sight.

Beloved, while I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I was constrained to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.

Keep yourselves in God’s love, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life.

For Yahweh loves justice, and doesn’t forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.

Whoever offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies me, and prepares his way so that I will show God’s salvation to him.”

I will satisfy him with long life, and show him my salvation.”

Better is a little with righteousness, than great revenues with injustice.

Behold, God is my salvation. I will trust, and will not be afraid; for Yah, Yahweh, is my strength and song; and he has become my salvation.”

The mountains melt under him, and the valleys split apart, like wax before the fire, like waters that are poured down a steep place.

See that you don’t despise one of these little ones, for I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.

But immediately after the suffering of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;

and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ

if it is so that you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the Good News which you heard, which is being proclaimed in all creation under heaven, of which I, Paul, was made a servant.

As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,

If anyone teaches a different doctrine, and doesn’t consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness,

But having food and clothing, we will be content with that.

that each person who belongs to God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

having good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they see, glorify God in the day of visitation.

But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

He raises up the poor out of the dust. He lifts up the needy from the dunghill to make them sit with princes and inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth are Yahweh’s. He has set the world on them.

Better is a little that the righteous has, than the abundance of many wicked.

The earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars.

Better is little, with the fear of Yahweh, than great treasure with trouble.

While they were greatly perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling clothing.

{14.24} To Him now being able you to strengthen according to the gospel of mine and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery in times of the ages kept secret,

because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the Good News

to which he called you through our Good News, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

But you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, steadfastness,

for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.

I will establish my covenant with you: All flesh will not be cut off any more by the waters of the flood. There will never again be a flood to destroy the earth.”

The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, to kill those who are upright on the path.

Howl, gate! Cry, city! You are melted away, Philistia, all of you; for smoke comes out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.

The earth is utterly broken. The earth is torn apart. The earth is shaken violently.

The men marveled, saying, “What kind of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”

Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s chosen ones, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,

Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,

But he answered them, “You see all of these things, don’t you? Most certainly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone on another, that will not be thrown down.”

For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God we behaved ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you.

For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens.

but with good works, which is appropriate for women professing godliness.

Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age;

looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it,

not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

seeing your pure behavior in fear.
