2 Peter 1:7-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁷ and in your godliness, ^(A)brotherly kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love. ⁸ For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they render you neither useless nor ^(B)unfruitful in the true ^(C)knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹ For he who lacks these qualities is ^(D)blind or short-sighted, having forgotten his ^(E)purification from his former sins.
