2nd Kafa (2 Peter) — 1
Greetings from Kafa
1 Simun Kafa, a servant and a Shaliach of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏_YAHUSHA Ha'Mashyach, to them that have obtained the same precious Amunah with us through the righteousness of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH and our Savior 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏_YAHUSHA Ha'Mashyach:
2 Favor and Shalum be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH Tsaba'ut and of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏_YAHUSHA our Master,
Growing in Amunah
3 The divine power of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has given to us all things that we need to live a life of righteousness, through the knowledge of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH who called us to HIMSELF by HIS Kabad and excellent way,
4 And because of HIS Kabad and excellence, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share the divine nature of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH and escape the corruption of this world, caused by man's desires.
5 For this very reason, you must make every effort and add to your Amunah with moral character, your moral character with knowledge,
6 And knowledge with self-control, and self-control with patient-endurance, and patient-endurance with righteousness,
7 And righteousness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with Ahaba (love) for everyone.
8 The more you grow like this, the more productive and useful you will be in your knowledge of our MASTER 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏_YAHUSHA Ha'Mashyach.
9 But those who fail to develop in this way are shortsighted or blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their old sins.
10 So, dear brothers and sisters, work hard to prove that you really are among those 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has called and chosen. Do these things, and you will never fall away.
11 Then 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH will give you a grand entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Master and Savior 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏_YAHUSHA Ha'Mashyach.
Paying Attention to Scripture
12 Therefore, I will always remind you about these things—even though you already know them and are standing firm in the truth you have been taught.
13 And it is only right that I should keep on reminding you as long as I live.
14 For our Master 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏_YAHUSHA Ha'Mashyach has shown me that I must soon leave this Arath life,
15 So I will work hard to make sure you always remember these things after I am gone.
16 For we were not making up clever stories when we told you about the powerful coming of our MASTER 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏_YAHUSHA Ha'Mashyach. We saw His majestic splendor with our own eyes
17 When Ha'Mashyach received honor and Kabad from ABBA 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH. The voice from the majestic Kabad of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH said to Him, “This is my dearly loved Son, who brings me great joy.”
18 We ourselves heard that voice from Shamaym when we were with Ha'Mashyach on the Qadash mountain.
19 Because of that experience, we have even greater confidence in the message proclaimed by the Nabyms. You must pay close attention to what they wrote, for their words are like a lamp shining in a dark place, until the Day dawns, and Ha'Mashyach the Morning Star shines in your hearts.
20 Above all, you must realize that no prophecy in Scripture ever came from the Nabym’s own understanding,
21 Or from man's initiative. No, those Nabyms were moved by the Ruach Ha'Qadash, and they spoke from 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH.
