2 Peter 1:16-21

Christ’s Glory and the Prophetic Word

16For we did not follow acleverly devised bmyths when we made known to you cthe power and dcoming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but ewe were eyewitnesses of his majesty. 17For when he received honor and glory from God the Father, and the voice was borne to him by the Majestic Glory, fThis is my beloved Son,
Or  my Son, my (or the) Beloved
with whom I am well pleased,”
18we ourselves heard this very voice borne from heaven, for we were with him on hthe holy mountain. 19And iwe have the prophetic word more fully confirmed, to which you will do well to pay attention jas to a lamp shining in a dark place, until kthe day ldawns and the morning star rises in your hearts, 20knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone’s own interpretation. 21For mno prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God nas they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
