2 Peter 3:4-10
English Standard Version
4 (A)They will say, “Where is the promise of (B)his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation.” 5 For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth (C)was formed out of water and through water (D)by the word of God, 6 and that by means of these the world that then existed (E)was deluged with water and (F)perished. 7 But by the same word (G)the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and (H)destruction of the ungodly.
8 But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and (I)a thousand years as one day. 9 (J)The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise (K)as some count slowness, but (L)is patient toward you,[a] (M)not wishing that any should perish, but (N)that all should reach repentance. 10 But (O)the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then (P)the heavens will pass away with a roar, and (Q)the heavenly bodies[b] will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed.[c]
