2 Peter 1:19-21
New American Standard Bible
19 And so we have (A)the prophetic word made more (B)sure, to which you do well to pay attention as to (C)a lamp shining in a dark place, until the (D)day dawns and the (E)morning star arises (F)in your hearts. 20 But (G)know this first of all, that (H)no prophecy of Scripture [a]becomes a matter of [b]someone’s own interpretation, 21 for (I)no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men (J)moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.

2 Peter 1:19-21
New International Version
19 We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable,(A) and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light(B) shining in a dark place, until the day dawns(C) and the morning star(D) rises in your hearts.(E) 20 Above all, you must understand(F) that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things. 21 For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God(G) as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.(H)
