2 Peter 3:13-15

New International Version

¹³ But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth,^(A) where righteousness dwells.

¹⁴ So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless^(B) and at peace with him. ¹⁵ Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience^(C) means salvation,^(D) just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.^(E)
