2 Peter 3:11-13
Worldwide English (New Testament)
11 That is the way the whole world will go. So think what kind of people you should be! Think how holy and true to God your lives should be!
12 You should look for the day of God and do everything you can to make it come quickly. On that day the sky will be on fire and go away. The elements will burn and melt away.
13 But we are looking for a new sky and a new earth which God has promised. Only good things will be in them.
