&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;i&gt;Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: &lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, &lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: &lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt; Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-feature-settings: normal;
