2 Peter 3:3-7
Christian Standard Bible
3 Above all, be aware of this: Scoffers will come in the last days(A) scoffing and following their own evil desires, 4 saying, “Where is his ‘coming’ that he promised?(B) Ever since our ancestors fell asleep,(C) all things continue as they have been since the beginning of creation.” 5 They deliberately overlook this: By the word of God(D) the heavens came into being long ago and the earth was brought about from water and through water.(E) 6 Through these the world of that time perished when it was flooded.(F) 7 By the same word,(G) the present heavens and earth are stored up for fire, being kept for the day of judgment(H) and destruction of the ungodly.

2 Peter 3:3-7
New Living Translation
3 Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. 4 They will say, “What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created.”
5 They deliberately forget that God made the heavens long ago by the word of his command, and he brought the earth out from the water and surrounded it with water. 6 Then he used the water to destroy the ancient world with a mighty flood. 7 And by the same word, the present heavens and earth have been stored up for fire. They are being kept for the day of judgment, when ungodly people will be destroyed.

3 Above all, you must understand that in the last days(A) scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires.(B) 4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised?(C) Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.”(D) 5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word(E) the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water.(F) 6 By these waters also the world of that time(G) was deluged and destroyed.(H) 7 By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire,(I) being kept for the day of judgment(J) and destruction of the ungodly.
