2nd Peter 1:6

3 Because by his power he has given us everything necessary for life and righteousness, through the knowledge of him who has been our guide by his glory and virtue;

4 And through this he has given us the hope of great rewards highly to be valued; so that by them we might have our part in God's being, and be made free from the destruction which is in the world through the desires of the flesh.

5 So, for this very cause, take every care; joining virtue to faith, and knowledge to virtue,

6 And self-control to knowledge, and a quiet mind to self-control, and fear of God to a quiet mind,

7 And love of the brothers to fear of God, and to love of the brothers, love itself.

8 For if you have these things in good measure, they will make you fertile and full of fruit in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 For the man who has not these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having no memory of how he was made clean from his old sins.
