2 Pierre 3
Louis Segond
3 Voici déjà, bien-aimés, la seconde lettre que je vous écris. Dans l'une et dans l'autre je cherche à éveiller par des avertissements votre saine intelligence,
2 afin que vous vous souveniez des choses annoncées d'avance par les saints prophètes, et du commandement du Seigneur et Sauveur,
3 enseigné par vos apôtres, sachant avant tout que, dans les derniers jours, il viendra des moqueurs avec leurs railleries, marchant selon leurs propres convoitises,
4 et disant: Où est la promesse de son avènement? Car, depuis que les pères sont morts, tout demeure comme dès le commencement de la création.
5 Ils veulent ignorer, en effet, que des cieux existèrent autrefois par la parole de Dieu, de même qu'une terre tirée de l'eau et formée au moyen de l'eau,
6 et que par ces choses le monde d'alors périt, submergé par l'eau,
7 tandis que, par la même parole, les cieux et la terre d'à présent sont gardés et réservés pour le feu, pour le jour du jugement et de la ruine des hommes impies.
8 Mais il est une chose, bien-aimés, que vous ne devez pas ignorer, c'est que, devant le Seigneur, un jour est comme mille ans, et mille ans sont comme un jour.
9 Le Seigneur ne tarde pas dans l'accomplissement de la promesse, comme quelques-uns le croient; mais il use de patience envers vous, ne voulant pas qu'aucun périsse, mais voulant que tous arrivent à la repentance.
10 Le jour du Seigneur viendra comme un voleur; en ce jour, les cieux passeront avec fracas, les éléments embrasés se dissoudront, et la terre avec les oeuvres qu'elle renferme sera consumée.
11 Puisque donc toutes ces choses doivent se dissoudre, quelles ne doivent pas être la sainteté de votre conduite et votre piété,
12 tandis que vous attendez et hâtez l'avènement du jour de Dieu, à cause duquel les cieux enflammés se dissoudront et les éléments embrasés se fondront!
13 Mais nous attendons, selon sa promesse, de nouveaux cieux et une nouvelle terre, où la justice habitera.
14 C'est pourquoi, bien-aimés, en attendant ces choses, appliquez-vous à être trouvés par lui sans tache et irrépréhensibles dans la paix.
15 Croyez que la patience de notre Seigneur est votre salut, comme notre bien-aimé frère Paul vous l'a aussi écrit, selon la sagesse qui lui a été donnée.
16 C'est ce qu'il fait dans toutes les lettres, où il parle de ces choses, dans lesquelles il y a des points difficiles à comprendre, dont les personnes ignorantes et mal affermies tordent le sens, comme celui des autres Écritures, pour leur propre ruine.
17 Vous donc, bien-aimés, qui êtes avertis, mettez-vous sur vos gardes, de peur qu'entraînés par l'égarement des impies, vous ne veniez à déchoir de votre fermeté.
18 Mais croissez dans la grâce et dans la connaissance de notre Seigneur et Sauveur Jésus Christ. A lui soit la gloire, maintenant et pour l'éternité! Amen!

주님이 다시 오심
3 사랑하는 여러분, 지금 나는 여러분에게 두 번째 편지를 씁니다. 나는 이 편 지로 여러분에게
2 옛날 거룩한 예언자들이 전한 말씀과 우리의 주님이신 구주께서 여러분의 사도들을 통해 명령하신 것을 다시 한번 상기시켜 주려고 합니다.
3 여러분은 먼저 이것을 아십시오. 마지막 때에 자기들의 정욕대로 사는 사람들이 일어나 여러분을 비웃으며
4 “예수가 다시 온다는 약속은 도대체 어떻게 되었소? 우리 조상들이 죽은 이후로 세상은 창조된 그대로 있지 않소?” 하고 말할 것입니다.
5-6 그들은 하나님의 말씀대로 하늘이 창 조되었고 땅은 물에서 나와 물로 이루어졌으며 옛 세상이 홍수로 멸망되었다는 사실을 일부러 잊으려고 합니다.
7 그러나 현재의 하늘과 땅은 심판 날에 모든 경건치 않은 사람들을 불로 멸망시키기 위해 동일한 하나님의 말씀으로 보존되고 있습니다.
8 사랑하는 여러분, 주님에게는 하루가 천 년 같고 천 년이 하루와 같다는 사실을 잊지 마십시오.
9 주님은 어떤 사람들이 생각하듯이 약속을 지키는 데 더디신 분이 아니라 여러분에게 오래 참으셔서 아무도 멸망하지 않고 모두 회개하게 되기를 바라십니다.
10 그러나 주님의 날은 도둑같이 갑자기 올 것입니다. 그 날에는 하늘이 큰 소리를 내며 사라지고 천체는 불에 타서 녹아 버릴 것이며 땅과 거기 있는 모든 것이 타서 없어질 것입니다.
11 모든 것이 이렇게 녹아 버릴 텐데 여러분은 어떤 사람이 되어야 하겠습니까? 경건하고 거룩한 생활을 하면서
12 하나님의 날이 속히 오기를 간절히 기다려야 합니다. 그 날에는 하늘이 불에 타서 없어지고 천체도 그 열로 녹아 버릴 것입니다.
13 그러나 우리는 하나님의 약속대로 정의만이 있는 새 하늘과 새 땅을 기다리고 있습니다.
14 그러므로 사랑하는 여러분, 여러분은 그 날을 기다리며 하나님 앞에서 흠 없는 깨끗한 생활을 하여 평안한 마음으로 그분을 뵙도록 노력하십시오.
15 우리 주님이 오래 참으시는 것은 여러분을 구원하기 위한 것임을 아십시오. 우리의 사랑하는 형제 바울도 하나님께 받은 지혜로 이와 같은 편지를 여러분에게 써 보냈습니다.
16 그의 모든 편지에서도 그는 이와 같은 말을 했는데 그 가운데는 알기 어려운 말이 더러 있습니다. 무식하고 믿음이 약한 사람들이 다른 성경처럼 그것도 억지로 해석하여 스스로 멸망을 불러들이고 있습니다.
17 사랑하는 여러분, 그러므로 여러분은 이것을 알고 늘 조심하여 악한 사람들의 꼬임에 빠지지 않도록 믿음을 굳게 지키십시오.
18 여러분은 우리 주님이신 구주 예수 그리스도의 은혜와 그분을 아는 지식에서 점점 자라가십시오. 주님께 이제와 영원히 영광이 있기를 바랍니다. 아멘.
2 Peter 3
New International Version
The Day of the Lord
3 Dear friends,(A) this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders(B) to stimulate you to wholesome thinking. 2 I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets(C) and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles.(D)
3 Above all, you must understand that in the last days(E) scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires.(F) 4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised?(G) Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.”(H) 5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word(I) the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water.(J) 6 By these waters also the world of that time(K) was deluged and destroyed.(L) 7 By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire,(M) being kept for the day of judgment(N) and destruction of the ungodly.
8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.(O) 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise,(P) as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient(Q) with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.(R)
10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief.(S) The heavens will disappear with a roar;(T) the elements will be destroyed by fire,(U) and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.[a](V)
11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives 12 as you look forward(W) to the day of God and speed its coming.[b](X) That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat.(Y) 13 But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth,(Z) where righteousness dwells.
14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless(AA) and at peace with him. 15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience(AB) means salvation,(AC) just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.(AD) 16 He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable(AE) people distort,(AF) as they do the other Scriptures,(AG) to their own destruction.
17 Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard(AH) so that you may not be carried away by the error(AI) of the lawless(AJ) and fall from your secure position.(AK) 18 But grow in the grace(AL) and knowledge(AM) of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.(AN) To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.(AO)

King James Version
3 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:
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 Saviour:
3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
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.
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:
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
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.
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;
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, unto their own destruction.
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 stedfastness.
18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.
