2 Peter 3:3-10

« 2 Pet 22 Pet 31 John 1 »

3 ^aknowing this first of all, that ^bin the last days ^cmockers will come with their mocking, ^dfollowing after their own lusts, 4 and saying, “^aWhere is the promise of His ^bcoming? For since the fathers ^cfell asleep, all continues just as it was ^dfrom the beginning of creation.” 5 For ¹when they maintain this, it escapes their notice that ^aby the word of God the heavens existed long ago and the earth was ^bformed out of water and by water, 6 through which ^athe world at that time was ^bdestroyed, being deluged with water. 7 But by His word ^athe present heavens and earth are being reserved for ^bfire, being kept for ^cthe day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
8 But do not let this one fact escape your notice, ^abeloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and ^ba thousand years like one day. 9 ^aThe Lord is not slow about His promise, as some consider slowness, but ^bis patient toward you, ^cnot willing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance. 10 But ^athe day of the Lord ^bwill come like a thief, in which ^cthe heavens ^dwill pass away with a roar and the ^eelements will be destroyed with intense heat, and ^fthe earth and ¹its works will be ²found out.
