2 Peter 1:7-9

English Standard Version

⁷ and godliness ^(A)with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection ^(B)with love. ⁸ For if these qualities^[a] are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or ^(C)unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹ For whoever lacks these qualities is so nearsighted that he ^(D)is blind, having forgotten that he was ^(E)cleansed from his former sins.
