Glad you posted this. Hard to believe this, even for me, but there actually was an error in the translated quote you provided. See for yourself, on the left side of the document, the word for word translation literally reads like this: "The God of us and Saviour of us Jesus Anointed Christ." No punctuation unlike what you claim.
Here is another source of greek to english interlinear translation

Both yours and the one I have posted place the pronoun "us" after God.
Quote:1 Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ,
To those who through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have received a faith as precious as ours:
2 Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
Confirming One’s Calling and Election
3 His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 4 Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
5 For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7 and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. 8 For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins.
10 Therefore, my brothers and sisters,[a] make every effort to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble, 11 and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Who is St Peter speaking of in this passage? Both God and Jesus whom he has conferred Godliness to [ie Jesus who is one with God]. Has such attributes been bestowed on other prophets, even in the Koran?
