3 According as his divine power hath given unto us ^aall things that pertain unto ^blife and ^cgodliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us ^dto glory and ^evirtue:

  4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious ^apromises: that by these ye might be ^bpartakers of the ^cdivine ^dnature, having ^eescaped the ^fcorruption that is in the world through ^glust.

  5 And beside this, giving all ^adiligence, add to your faith ^bvirtue; and to virtue ^cknowledge;

  6 And to knowledge ^atemperance; and to temperance ^bpatience; and to patience ^cgodliness;

  7 And to godliness ^abrotherly ^bkindness; and to brotherly kindness ^ccharity.

  8 For if these things be in you, and ^aabound, they make you that ye shall neither be ^bbarren nor ^cunfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
