2 Peter 3:5-7

New King James Version

⁵ For this they willfully forget: that ^(A)by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth ^(B)standing out of water and in the water, ^6 (C)by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. ⁷ But ^(D)the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for ^(E)fire until the day of judgment and ^[a]perdition of ungodly men.
