| 2nd Peter 3:1 | This second epistle, beloved, I now write to you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:2 | That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Savior: | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:3 | Knowing this first, that there will come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:4 | And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:5 | For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:6 | By which the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:7 | But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved to fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:8 | But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:9 | The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long-suffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:10 | But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein will be burned up. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:11 | Seeing then that all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy deportment and godliness, | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:12 | Looking for and hasting to the coming of the day of God, in which the heavens being on fire will be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:13 | Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, in which dwelleth righteousness. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:14 | Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found by him in peace, without spot, and blameless. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:15 | And account that the long-suffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, hath written to you; | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:16 | As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, to their own destruction. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:17 | Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd Peter 3:18 | But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. | |||||||||||||||
