2 Peter 1:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ For if these things be with you and abound, they will make you to be neither empty nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁹ For he that hath not these things with him, is blind, and groping, having forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

¹⁰ Wherefore, brethren, labour the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time.
